through a more advanced explanation. Roller coaster rides involve a great deal of physics. The ride often begins with a chain and motor which exerts a force on the train of cars to lift the train to the top of a tall hill. Once the cars are lifted to the top of the hill‚ gravity takes over and the rest of the ride works on energy transformation. There is no motor or engine that takes a train around the track. The law of physics is basically the engine of the train. At the top of the hill‚ the cars possess

5 of the biggest unsolved mysteries in physics The mysteries of the universe are as vast and wide as existence itself. Throughout history‚ mankind has searched and struggled to find the answers tucked away inside the universe and everything we see around us. As Deep Thought said in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy‚ "I think the problem‚ to be quite honest with you‚ is that you’ve never actually known what the question is." True‚ we have yet to come up with the answers to life‚ the universe

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

Well how does the study of physics made a milestone for the world. And how does it help me in my daily life. Physics is the science of matter and its motion‚ space-time and energy. Physics describes many forms of energy - such as kinetic energy‚ electrical energy‚ and mass; and the way energy can change from one form to another. Everything surrounding to us is made of matter and Physics explains matter as combinations of fundamental particles which are interacting through fundamental forces. It

Report on “Physics of the Impossible” by Michio Kaku The most recent book that I have read is “Physics of the Impossible” written by Michio Kaku. It seems like the author doesn’t know the meaning of the word “impossible”‚ or rather‚ to be slightly more accurate‚ he has redefined the term to enable him realistically to examine and predict the future of science and technologies‚ from teleportation and time travel to robots and starships. Michio Kaku is an esteemed theoretical physicist and one of

people fail to realize the importance of physics in athletics. People who are untrained in the scientific field may believe that an athlete’s performance level is solely based on their skill-set‚ such as strength and training. However‚ one’s ability to employ physics concepts is the true determinant for success. This is imperative to dancers; most movement and technique can be improved dramatically by following Newton’s laws accordingly. By utilizing key physics concepts‚ a dancer can improve by locating
