    As mentioned before, pitching requires several joints and muscles. Shoulder and elbow are two of the joints that are involved in the movement. Of the six phases of pitching, arm cocking, acceleration and deceleration are the three phases when elbow and shoulder joints experience high magnitudes of forces (Oyama 83). Windup is the phase that occurs when the pitcher places the non-throwing hand is in front of the target. In the beginning of the arm cocking phase, the non-throwing shoulder is…

    the motion of the picket fence. The upward-curved shape of the position-time graph suggests that the picket fence has a changing velocity. This curve signifies the object moving from slow to fast since the slope changes from small to big. On the other hand, the velocity-time graphs appeared linear and with a constant slope, so the “linear fit” function on Logger Pro was selected to fit a straight line to the data. Its shape was an increasing straight line, which signifies accelerated motion…

    Want that perfect “Kobe” jump shot? All the great shooters around the world have extremely good form. To have good form, you need a technique or steps to follow in order to keep your jump shot consistent. The perfect jump shot requires bending of the knees, flicking of the wrist, and following through. The first step, bending of the knees, is very important and results in how the ball approaches the rim. When bending the knees within a shot, the shooter creates a stability stance for the ball to…

    IV: Rebuttals to my Characterisation of Reclamation In the above, I have created a model to represent to sociological phenomena of the reclamation of slurs. I have given an example how we can see this mechanism at work with respect to the word queer. Though this provides evidence in support of my thesis the question arises as to what measure should be used to more so test the effectiveness of the model. What should be considered and how can my thesis best be supported? The model which I have…

    in addition to the materials used for the bungee jump apparatus included Vernier LabPro, connected to the Dual Range Force sensor and the Ultrasonic Motion Detector, and Logger Pro. The Dual Range Force sensor was used for measuring the force, given in Newtons, of the bungee jump either pulling or pushing on the attached hook. The Ultrasonic Motion Detector provided information on the change in the bungee jump’s position by measuring its distance from the sensor. These sensors provided…
