You have to keep in mind that magic sequences do not directly affect molecules and forces. It affects an alternate dimension and the magician's orders are then accommodated by reality however necessary.
You have to be more specific about what in Tatsuya's explanation here was confusing?

The side note I pointed out here is that acceleration still happens but it is uncontrolled since the magic spell only specified movement. Was the separate short summary I made also confusing?
