All three were very different from each other, but all of them shared the common goal of trying to ensure that they, and those close to them, could live in happiness. Farah Ahmedi had been seriously injured as a child and had to get a prosthetic leg.…

service box. In order to increase this range, many tennis players give the ball more topspin and strike the ball as high off the ground as possible. When a player gives the ball topspin it creates an area of low pressure beneath the ball due to the Magnus…

Baseball is fairly popular sport that is played all around the world. Baseball is a game involving a bat and ball that is played between two teams taking turns batting and fielding. The batting team scores by hitting a ball that is thrown by the pitcher with a bat. Then running around a series of bases. The pitcher is the player who throws the baseball toward the catcher to begin each play, with the goal of retiring a batter. A skilled pitcher often throws a diffrent types of pitches to prevent…

In this paper we will see how physics plays a role in the sport of soccer. In this paper I will be using five different references : the science classroom, real world physics problems, soccer mania, soccer ball world, and stmarys-ca.edu. Physics is the study of matter and its motion through space and time, it is a big role in soccer , soccer uses Newton’s first , second, and third laws of motion.Magnu effect is also a role in soccer this is when the ball curves to a certain direction…

Alec was not looking forward to the inevitable conversation with Magnus. He wasn’t entirely sure what that conversation would entail, but he knew he didn’t want to have it just yet. His head was still spinning in a thousand directions and none of them were good. Well, that wasn’t true. Several of the ideas that came bursting in unannounced were happy memories, about both Magnus and Chris. The night was chilly, though Alec was doing is best to ignore it. He was a shadowhunter. He helped to…

drop. There are other variables involved like air pressure, rotation of the ball, and aerodynamics. These are very important factors when a baseball is thrown. A Big part of velocity is the air pressure, this is because of a separate topic called the Magnus Effect - a force exerted on a rapidly spinning cylinder or sphere moving through air in a direction at an angle to the axis of spin. This is what I am testing in this experiment using the average velocity formula v=(Df-Di)/t. I will test the…

A volleyball serve is one of the most important movements when playing the game of volleyball. Without the proper techniques, the serve can ultimately make a difference in a win and a loss. The detailed science of a volleyball serve can best be described using kinesiology, or the study of anatomical principles and physiological mechanics of movement, and biomechanics, the study of forces and there effects on living things. Once the kinesiological aspect is understood for this particular movement…
