Yes, the following law made my life, a Champion’s life, 26 years
and 9 months of total, out of which initial 7 years were very hard due to a
good and strong opponent, but rest of the majority years were happy like exemplary.
The law of action-reaction (Newton's third law) explains the nature of the forces
between the two interacting objects. According to the law, the force exerted by object 1
upon object 2 is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force
exerted by object 2 upon object 1.
How a good opponent
can make champion, if the above statement is true. When this law was revisited,
it is explained like:
Consider the collision between the club
head and the golf ball in the sport of golf. When the club head of a moving
golf club collides with a golf ball at rest upon a tee, the force experienced
by the club head is equal to the force experienced by the golf ball. Most
observers of this collision have difficulty with this concept because they
perceive the high speed given to the ball as the result of the collision. They
are not observing unequal forces upon the ball
and club head, but rather unequal accelerations. Both club head and ball
experience equal forces, yet the ball experiences a greater acceleration due to
its smaller mass. In a collision, there is a force on both objects that causes
an acceleration of both objects. The forces are equal in magnitude and opposite
in direction, yet the least massive object receives the greatest acceleration.
As far as Champion in sports is concerned, I became All
Pakistan YMCA Table Tennis Champion at the age of 14 after defeating some good,
tough opponents in Quarter Final and Semi Final. You know what does
understanding / similar thought in sports means? Answer is anyone can become
Champion if they agree upon a fixed amount in currency. I have never been a
Champion of that type in any field as I believe in tough competition.
