The Physics behind the Golf Ball One factor that greatly affects the flight and trajectory of a golf ball is the air resistance. People may think that air resistance would make the golf ball slower and drop faster‚ but this is not true. Modern golf balls have adapted to this by having circular shallow depressions‚ also known as “dimples‚” on the ball. This was invented by a English engineer William Taylor in 1908.

Physics behind roller coasters Energy can be converted from one from to another. When the car is still‚ the energy which is acting on it is GPE (gravitational potential energy). The car starts to accelerate towards the peak. The energy is converted from GPE to Kinetic energy. The car is at the peak. The energy transfers from Kinetic energy to GPE. The car starts to go down. The energy transfers again from GPE to Kinetic energy. There is no kinetic energy when the car is still at the bottom‚ as
