Analysis of golf club design requires a strong understanding of the concept of moment of inertia. Explain, using examples, how moment of inertia plays an important role in the design and use of various golf club types. In your answer, specify what biomechanical variables are linked with moment of inertia and provide other sporting examples where it plays a large role. ( |
1. Driver moment of inertia should be minimised for the overall club to allow fast swing speeds.
2. MoI of the driver head is increased and manipulated to give greater forgiveness and reduce angular rotations that could lead to poor contact with the ball.
3. Similarly for the putter and irons, MoI of the head is increased to improve the accuracy of shots. Other sporting examples 4 marks Gymnastics Diving Swimming All reduce moi to be faster |
