class today we dropped a racket ball beneath a sensor in order to describe the motion of the ball in free fall. We collected our data through a sensor that determines the distance of an object from its current location. The sensor connects to a LabQuest that connects to the program Logger Pro, which copies the data collected and forms a position versus time graph as well as a velocity versus time graph. In order to have the data fit the situation of the bouncing ball, we zeroed the sensor so the…
Details like ball weights and pin dimensions depended on where you were. This lasted up intil Joe Thum pulled the leaders of the bowling clubs together for a meating, on September 9, 1891 the American bowling congress was formed. Twenty-two years later the Womens International bowling congress was established in St. Louis. Bowling Balls used to be mainly composed of lignum vitae, a very hard wood. But in 1905, the first rubber ball, the "Evertrue" was introduced; and in…
Bouncy balls are made up of Polymers, which are made up of many small units of monomers, that go through the process of Polymerization to become Polymers. People can see such polymers all around them like rubber, wool, silk etc. Polymers have unique properties that allow chemist’s and scientists to mix different types of polymers with each other to form new ones. In the lab Polyvinyl Acetate (PVAc), Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA), and Sodium Borate were used to make and design the bouncy balls. The…
Therefore, the basketball was dropped at a certain height. The results were as the temperature increases, the bounce of the basketball increases. If you ever played a sport, or drove a car, you probably never thought if on a cold day would it ruin a ball, or flatten your tire. Maybe on a hot day, the temperature can affect how high it would bounce. How does temperature affect air pressure? There are many things that happen with temperature and air pressure. To begin with, temperature can…
weight of a ball affects the speed that ball in travel at when shot or thrown. While researching this I found out that many different sports involve arm strength to throw an object far or at high speeds and many athletes don’t have enough arm strength or maybe don’t have much at all, but for every sport there is always a workout plan to increase what is needed. To increase your arm strength, the weight of a ball is a huge factor in the increase of your arm strength to soon throw the ball faster…
line in front of them until the ball is shot except the shooter. The shooter has to wait until the…
controlled. Dribble down the line of cones then picks ball up and return to the line. Level two: single tight dribble, quick and controlled. Dribble down the line of cones as quickly as you can still keeping your ball under control. At the end of the line of cones pick ball up, return to the line. Level three tight dribble with an opponent; dribble down with control, another student will meet you in the middle and try ONE time to steal your ball while you dribble. If they are successful,…
While everyone has their own personal opinion on many different subjects, I do not completely agree with your argument that banning heading the soccer ball in youth soccer would be beneficial to children. This is a very controversial topic although you claim that it is totally uncontroversial. A lot of emotion is expressed rather than information and not enough true data is included to make it true that this is a totally uncontroversial topic. Banning heading in youth soccer because they are not…
of a new game called basket ball. It wasn’t the exact game he played, but the method was similar. The game required a soccer ball, two peach baskets at the top…
