thought of all the physics that is involved in the game of golf? Golf is a game of precision and the smallest miscalculation could mess up a shot. (Real World Physics 2009) The physics of a proper golf swing is more complicated than you might think. You might think that this game is as simple as swinging a club and hitting the ball. But in fact‚ there is a lot more to it. First of all there is the importance of a good technique of coarse‚ but there is also a lot of interesting physics that goes into

Theory: Gravitational acceleration is constant on Earth g=9.8m/s2 Therefore‚ when the golf ball is dropped‚ the acceleration will be equal to gravitational acceleration agb=9.8m/s2 Given there is no air resistance‚ this means that when the golf ball is dropped from a given distance‚ according to the formulas‚ the golf ball will accelerate

How planes have changed from the first plane invented‚ till now. W.A.L.T: Write a expository piece of writing‚ that reflects my learning about how planes have changed from the first plane invented‚ till now. Planes are a type of transportation device that transport people/cargo to many places around the world in only hours or sometimes a day. These planes are engine powered and can go up to 12 kilometres in the air. Back to 1903 the first ever plane was made‚ it was in flight for only 12 seconds
