When you hear the word aerodynamics‚ the first thing that comes to mind is airplanes and pilots. There are other applications that apply. For instance‚ the passing of a football. A football that is thrown into the air has inertia. This is the tendency of an object in motion to remain in motion. But because of gravity the ball is pulled down and resistance that slows the ball down. A quarterback through the motions of his and body‚ must balance the forward momentum that he gives the ball‚ fighting

Baden. The different types of shapes affect the aerodynamics of a basketball. Although at first it may sound strange‚ the motion of a basketball when it leaves the hands of a player is governed by the same physical laws of an airplane. There are multiple ways to affect the aerodynamics of the ball like the flick of the wrist‚ force and the quickness of the release when you shoot. The texture of a basketball as well as the weight can play on the aerodynamics of the basketball and can affect the rotation

Race Car Aerodynamics Gregor Seljak April 8‚ 2008 1 Introduction First racing cars were primarily designed to achieve high top speeds and the main goal was to minimize the air drag. But at high speeds‚ cars developed lift forces‚ which affected their stability. In order to improve their stability and handling‚ engineers mounted inverted wings profiles1 generating negative lift. First such cars were Opel’s rocket powered RAK1 and RAK2 in 1928. However‚ in Formula‚ wings were not used
