    Clarkson said “It 's not how fast you are travelling which causes serious injury in a car crash, but it 's how fast that you stop.” During a crash the severity depends of how fast you break. Velocity, acceleration and Newton’s three laws play a vital role during a car crash. Sir Isaac Newton discovered the three laws of motion in 1686. Newton’s first law, or inertia, states that “an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion, with the same speed and in the same…

    velocity either increases or decrease or stays the same. This would also be called the acceleration of the object, which makes sense, given that slope is the delta y (velocity, cm/s) divided by delta…

    Power Power is a relevant and one of the most important skill-related components of fitness to the performance of a javelin throw. Muscular power is the ability to combine strength and speed in an explosive action and this is shown in a javelin throw. There are two types of powers, speed-dominated power, which is power generated through a greater emphasis on speed and is essential in activities such as sprinting and throwing which javelin includes. As well as strength-dominated power, which is…

    Knowing that Force = Mass x Acceleration, and with knowledge that the mass remains consistent, the equation can be rearranged to Acceleration = Force ÷ Mass. So understanding this information to cause the ball to move with a faster acceleration more force must be applied resulting in a larger resultant force causing a quicker speed in the given direction. Meaning a player can shoot quicker…

    May the Force Be With You Newton's second law, in short, states that force equals mass times acceleration. Newton was a pretty smart guy, developing the three laws of gravity, creating the reflecting telescope, and developing calculus. Newton's second law has helped us to develop almost anything that moves, from cars to planes. Newton's life is one of much interest, & a great story to tell. Isaac Newton was born into a family of farmers in Woolsthrope England, the year of 1643 January 4th. His…

    object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. The second is the relationship between an object's mass m, its acceleration a, and the applied force F is F = ma in this law the direction of the force vector is the same as the direction of the acceleration vector. The last one being for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton's laws are important…

    4.Arm collides with base and is brought to an abrupt stop. 5.Missiles retain the kinetic energy from the work done on the arm. This kinetic energy launches the missiles at the target. Objects fall toward Earth because of the force of gravity. Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2. If a bowling ball drops from a roof, after the 1st second, it travels 9.8 m/s. A second later, its velocity is 19.6 m/s. After falling for 10 seconds, its velocity is 98 m/s or about 219 miles per hour! • A force…

    Introduction As a figure skater with an enthusiasm for figure skating for many years, my choice of investigation for my internal assessment came to me quite easily. I have been a figure skater for eleven years and during this period I have been able to deepen my knowledge of the relationship between body coordinates and movements/positions of figure skating. I will be investigating the relationship between the body’s initial and interim positions and the outcome of a figure skater’s trajectory…
