Physics is more around us than one would think. Physics is in all of the things you love to do. Take golf as an example there is velocity in a golf swing. Velocity is the speed of something in a given object and the speed of your club in the direction you are aiming is velocity. Also there is gravitational potential energy in the top of your backswing to cause you to pull the club downward. Kinetic energy is also in golf‚ During your backswing kinetic energy is causing your club to go up and in your

The longbow has been used over the years‚ first as a weapon to hunt‚ later as a war weapon‚ and now its used as a sport‚ but its physics had always been the same over the years‚ regardless of its use. This physics involves two components: bow mechanics and arrow flightBow mechanics: when an archer pulls back the string‚ he does work on the bow‚ and is converted to potential energy. Upon release of the arrow‚ this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy‚ most of which is transferred to the

PHYSICS OF EVERYDAY LIFE BY Neha arora DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED SCIENCES Science is around us everywhere. The water you are drinking has science in it; the house you are living in has science in it. Anywhere you go‚ whatever you do sciences will surely going to help you. When we talk about the educational science‚ there are many other subjects which come under science. These subjects are called branches of science. Some of them are physics‚ chemistry‚ biology‚ astrology‚ etc. Physics is more than

Chris Crouse‚ Juan Agosto‚ Bianca Butler‚ Hunter Zaun Feb. 12‚ 2013 Mrs. Rarig Physics Projectile Range Versus Angle Intro: First off‚ what projectile motion is motion in two dimensions in both X & Y directions. The only force on the projectile is gravity. With gravity being a presence and a factor in our everyday lives and in this experiment‚ gravity will push down on the projectile forcing it back down to the ground. For example if someone shot a cannon straight and there was no gravity

September 25‚ 2013 Physics Tutorial Tonometry for Intra-Ocular Pressure In the linear non-elastic collision of the rod with the eyelid‚ there are 4 notable forces in action (Figure 1). 1. The force (or pressure) of the rod (rod/size of rod) exerted is equal and opposite to the force (or pressure) the cornea re-exerting pressure on the rod. 2. The force (or pressure) required to applanate a constant area of a cornea is equal and opposite to the force (or pressure) of the rebound on the

ZHEJIANG UNIVERSITY Department of Physics Thermal Physics Problem Set #3‚ Solution Date: 2013/03/29 1. If we apply the highly successful kinetic theory of gases to a metal‚ consider as a gas of electrons (in fact‚ back in 1900 Drude constructed the theory‚ hence the Drude theory of metals)‚ and assume that the electron velocity distribution is given by the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution‚ what would the most probable speed‚ average speed‚ and rms speed for electrons at room temperature

Sir J.J.THOMSOM is to physics what electron is to an atom. He charged the world of physics with his discoveries and gave momentum to atomic physics. Physics is what today because of this British scientist who is regarded as the greatest experimental physicists of this century. A bookseller’s son‚ Thomsom studied at the Owens College and later at the Manchester University. He wanted to become an engineer‚ but his father’s death in 1872 forced him to study Mathematics‚ Physics and Chemistry as he

Physics in My Daily Life “Write an essay of 1500 words‚ double spaced‚ in standard fonts ‚ giving credible references on the use of physics in your daily activity. You need to mention 5 or more activities where physics is used. Please follow the APA format.” As a senior in college‚ I lead a rather busy life. My days usually follow the same routine and pattern. I wake up at 7am everyday‚ so I am rather tired. To get going in the morning‚ I usually drink a cup of coffee. Then I attend my classes
