Home sounded so marvelous right now‚ anywhere but here‚ my confidence had hit rock bottom. My face red and frozen from sobbing. I concluded that there was some other way down‚ nevertheless there wasn’t. It was a gorgeous day about five years ago. My family and I had left to Sugar mountain to practice skiing

    Research Question How does spacing between dominoes affect the average velocity of the dominoes? Increasing space between each domino will decrease its velocity‚ decreasing the space will increase its velocity. Force at which it hits next dominoes is increased it will take longer for it hit‚ acceleration is constant‚ the longer it has to travel‚ the longer it will take to hit. According to Newton’s first law every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion

    shape‚ surface‚ and overall speed of an object (John Polson‚ 2013). Air resistance is present in snow skiers and can inhibit their performance in a race greatly if the proper precautions and positions are not met. Three of the main aspects of snow skiing are posture‚ clothing and location; all of which are affected by air resistance. The drag force of an object is influenced by size‚ shape surface area and velocity of the object. The force of drag is

In 1994 the decision was made to develop the mountain for downhill skiing and the future for the mountain was not looking bright. Fortunately‚ the Victorian government announced in 1997 that the plans to develop the mountain for skiing have been overturned and to keep Mt Sterling all season‚ nature based tourist‚ recreational‚ and also an educational mountain that is inviting for everyone.
