Introduction of Physics: Physics ("knowledge of nature") is the science concerned with the discovery and understanding of the most basic fundamental laws of the universe that control the way everything in the world around us behaves. Discoveries in basic physics have important ramifications for all of science. Physics attempts to describe the natural world by the application of logic scientific methods‚ including modeling by theoreticians. As a core scientific discipline‚ physics is concerned with

The Ballistic Pendulum Crime Lab Physics You are a criminologist‚ and have been given a gun which has been used in the commission of a crime. Both prosecution and defense claim that "muzzle velocity" (speed of the bullet as it leaves the gun) is crucial to the case. Your job...FIND IT! Shown below is a diagram representing a "ballistic pendulum." The bullet is fired into the block‚ the bullet-block combination rises by a height h as shown‚ a little physics is applied‚ and ...voila!...there

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

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

Physics in Everyday Life 1 Just about everything you do from moving to eating to listening to music involves physics. Now that I have really explored them I think it is hard to go about our day and not do something that involves physics. Some of the things I will talk about are getting out of bed‚ the eye and how eye glasses help a person see better‚ speakers‚ the Frisbee‚ sailing‚ and the pulleys I use to get my jeep unstuck in the mud when I ride in the woods. All of these
