Physics End of Year Reflection Paper At the beginning of this course you were given some overarching enduring understandings and essential questions. These were: Overarching Enduring Understandings: Students will uncover and use appropriate scientific models to describe and quantify the nature and interactions of matter and energy. Students should understand that there is a network of rules and relationships that determine what will happen in a given situation Students

The sport of tennis has multiple opportunities in which the study of physics can go in depth. The sport’s court‚ racquet‚ ball‚ and even the player contain unlimited amounts of physics in which a person can go more into detail with as they study. While it is true that these all contain some form of physics‚ the racquet and how it interacts with the ball is where most of the physics is apparent. Starting with the racquet a person is able to see four main areas of focus. These focuses consist of the

Cosmology By: Jarrett Leuta-Douyere A New Look at Sports Growing up in a family filled with athletic desire to be great at whatever sport we would participate in and understanding simple physics in Cosmetology‚ I never realized how much physics comes into play when playing sports. We don’t call it physics when were playing‚ football‚ basketball‚ baseball because it’s just a natural feeling when were throwing a ball or trying to tackle someone. When we began to learn about Newton’s law of Gravity

Module 2 Honors Extension: The Physics in Swimming Physics is defined as the branch of science concerning the study of matter and energy and the interactions between the two. Physics tries to explain the nature of the world around us‚ how things happen and why. Swimming displays some physical properties‚ such as buoyancy‚ drag resistance and propulsion. We swimmers are at a constant battle to stay afloat‚ while fighting through the water and propelling ourselves forward‚ and we do so using technique

The independent variable is the rise of the ramp‚the dependent variable whether or not the marble will loop the loop. The underlying principle of all roller coasters is the law of conservation of energy. When a roller coaster crests the first big hill‚gravity takes over. Potential energy is sometimes known as positional energy. As the roller coaster falls is has enough kinetic energy to make it through the remainder of the ride. Inertia keeps the object in motion. The other forces bring the roller
