Student Project The Physics of Sports Instructions: One of the best (and most fun) ways to explore physics and how it relates to the real-world is through sports. Every sport utilizes multiple physics principles. For this project you will chose a sport and study the physics principles involved. The sport you choose must be an actual sport‚ not a computer simulation or animation You will create a short PowerPoint presentation (5 slides max) summarizing your project. The following outline is designed

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

downhill skiing when I was 11 years old. My mom had randomly brought some of my siblings and myself to Buena Vista. Buena Vista is a decent sized ski lodge by Bemidji‚ Minnesota. That was the first time I had been there or to any ski lodge or resort. We all had loads of fun and loved it right away. We could not get enough of it. As I grew older‚ I continued to ski at Buena Vista a few times each winter. For mine and Rena’s birthday‚ we brought some of our friends to go downhill skiing for their

that by their very nature require speed such as skiing where injuries don’t have to occur. However‚ there are other sports that demand deliberate even delicate moves‚ such as rock climbing‚ where speed gained from a fall could be deadly. In any event‚ people just don’t experience major trauma unless high velocity is involved. Three of the most common outdoor activities where injuries from high velocity occur are mountain biking‚ skiing and rock climbing. Mountain Bike Injuries The National
