kicking a field goal has quite a few elements of physics involved some of those are gravity which wants to push the ball back down to earth but you also give it a horizontal accleration and a vertical velocity when you kick it and ou also got to make sure to hit it at the right ngle because that decides how much speed the ball will have in eaither direction and other factors like if you hi it higher it will tay in the air for longer but it probally wouldnt go as far but it is also affected by many outside forces like air resistance and also wind can have a huge affect and can change velocity depending on were the winds are pushing.
