    The Physics of Field Goal Kicking Physics is involved in all of our daily activities. Most of the time‚ however‚ physics is overlooked and never acknowledged. It is important to understand different aspects of physics because physics tells us how and why certain events occur. By definition‚ physics is the search for laws that describe the most fundamental aspects of nature: matter‚ energy‚ force‚ motion‚ heat‚ light‚ and other phenomena. There are many different sectors of physics‚ but we will

    from at rest? [pic] A solid‚ uniform cylinder with mass 8.25kg and diameter 15cm is spinning at 200 rpm on a thin‚ frictionless axle that stop the cylinder axis. You design a simple friction brake to stop the cylinder by pressing the brake against the outer rim with a normal force. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the brake and rim is 0.333. What must be the applied normal force to bring the cylinder to rest after it has turned through 5.25 rev? [pic] A 2.2kg hoop 1.2m in diameter is

    Figure 1 (Shanghai Maglev Train) Figure 1 (Shanghai Maglev Train) Maglev trains are transportation methods that are levitated from the ground and move forward by the forces of attraction and repulsion magnets create. This means that there is no friction between the track and train‚ which leave the odds of over powering and combusting almost 0. These trains are most commonly known to be eco-friendly‚ fast‚ safe‚ and do not create a great amount of noise. Such traits were the reason maglev trains

    H. Browne were first to demonstrate figure skating to an audience. Canadian Louis Rubenstein‚ was a student of Haines. There is very small amount of friction between the ice-skates and the ice. This small amount allows a skater to glide along the surface smoothly without friction stopping the motion as soon as it has begun There is some friction which allows the skater to take off in the first place‚ and to come to a stop. This is due to the shape of the blade on the skates. Angular momentum
