A soccer player kicks a ball toward a net. Which statement correctly explains how far the ball will travel? (1 point)
• A stronger kick corresponds to a greater magnitude of force, so the ball will travel farther.
• A stronger kick corresponds to a greater magnitude of force, so the ball will not travel as far.
• A stronger kick corresponds to a lesser magnitude of force, so the ball will not travel as far.
• A stronger kick corresponds to a lesser magnitude of force, so the ball will travel farther.
