Cocker and Walton Prizes 2012 Physics in Medicine By Fayaz Rahaman ➢ Introduction Physics is about understanding the laws that govern the world around us. Most people know about the problems solved and the discoveries made by physicists in the past‚ such as the orbits of planets found by Galileo‚ the law of gravity first unravelled by Newton and later extended by Einstein. It is not as widely

S. Philip Pachade AP Physics B Energy Conservation Lab 3/8/2014 Preamble After recently finishing up a take home test on the topics of energy conservation we were given an energy conservation lab for a deeper and more intricate analysis of the law of the conservation of energy. As previously mentioned by many physicists the law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed‚ but

by scalars and vectors? Answer: * Scalar Quantities: Quantities that require magnitudes only to specify them are called scalar quantities or scalars. Mass‚ length‚ time‚ temperature‚ angle‚ area‚ speed‚ distance‚ volume and density are examples of scalar quantities. * Vector Quantities: Quantities that require both magnitudes and direction to specify them are called vector quantities or vectors. Displacement‚ velocity‚ force‚ momentum‚ weight etc. are the examples of vectors. Q5: A farmer

The Physics of Baseball The sport of baseball has been around for over two hundred years‚ roughly since the 1800s. Invented by a man named Alexander Cartwright. It is known as “Americas past time.” Baseball is the national sport of the USA. The first baseball game played was in New York on June 19‚ 1845. And is played by thousands of people throughout the years. Much like any sport‚ it has changed with time. The first rulebook of baseball was issued in 1877. And it has been changing every year

For example at car turning around a circular curve will stay at 12 m/s throughout the entire turn (provided the driver does not brake). The direction of the velocity vector is changing. A force is required in uniform circular

OThe Physics of Airplanes Background: At any given moment‚ roughly 5‚000 airplanes crisscross the skies above the United States alone‚ amounting to an estimated 64 million commercial and private takeoffs every year (source: NATCA). Considering the rest of the world ’s flight activity‚ the grand total is almost incalculable. In order to understand how airplanes fly‚ we must break down the parts of an airplane and understand the physics behind the airplanes most important components: the engine/propeller

We can relate physics to softball in many different ways. It is actually hard to not think about the game of softball without some physics in mind. Specifically‚ the ideas of momentum and energy helps define the way softball works and why it works. Momentum Running: When running the bases in softball‚ there is a lot more to it then the average person would think. While we run the bases‚ we are changing our momentum by applying more force‚ the force of friction‚ onto the ground which causes more
