  1. In this video it shows you how physics relates to hitting a baseball.

  2. Im going to talk about how the forces on a spinning ball that is flying through the air are generally divided into two types: a lift force and a drag force. The lift force is the upwards or sidewards force that is responsible for the Magnus effect. The drag force acts in the opposite direction to the path of the ball.

    this video will help you understand how a soccer ball is spined

  3. math is my favorite subject. the way math and physics relate to each other is people invented calculus to make things more clear about speed and acceleration. angelica alvarado

  4. While playing the A string on a bass guitar the frequency that the string is vibrating at is 440 times each second but since the bass guitar is fixed in place on two separate locations the frequency only moves back and forth and using this we can use metal slits on the neck called frets to change the frequency.

  5. Physics In Ice-Cream!!!=]

    -ice cream can be a great way of demonstrating a variety of phenomena.a demonstration of freezing point depression can be used to make ice cream!!! =P'

  6. SOCCER!

    Soccer relates to physics because of the movement of the ball, and also by the way that the person moves.

    The part in soccer that takes up the most movement is when the players do the tricks.
    Also, friction takes place whenever a component of force is equal to the surface.

  7. Running is one of my favorite things to do. Physics plays a big role in running by the means of the swinging motion of the arms and legs. Physics is why our arms are bent at the elbow when we run, also why we bend our legs as much as possible. The height of the swinging arms and legs when we run is directly related to our speed. If we run and bend our arms and legs as much as possible we can go faster without wasting more energy.

    This website tells you the running physics. http://www.faqs.org/sports-science/Pl-Sa/Running-Physics.html

  8. How physics is related to football..One way physics is related to football is the quantity of motion which basically says the velocity or the more mass an object has the harder it is to stop. This pretty much means the bigger or faster a player is the harder it is to stop that playerhttp://www.topendsports.com/sport/gridiron/physics.htm
    This video is a good example of what i mean

  9. Physics has an important role in shooting a basketball. Gravity pulls the ball down when it is shot up in the air. The laws of projectile motion also take part in shooting the ball. The laws of projectile motion tell us that the time it takes the ball to go up when shot is equal to the time it takes to fall in or near the basket.

    Here is a video of gravity and the laws of projectile motion taking effect on a shot.

    HOW PHYSICS RELATES TO CHEERLEADING.....
    WELL THELAW OF GRAVITY DEFINITELY APPLIES JUMPS, STUNTS,ECT BECAUSE WHATEVER GOES UP HAS TO COME DOWN THERE IS ALSO MOMENTUM BECAUSE YOU NEED SPEED FOR TUMBLING DOIN FULL DOWNS AND A JUMP START. SOUNDWAVES ARE INCLUDED TO BECAUSE OF YELLING CHEERS.

  11. Physics is related to everything, even to soccer. Aerodynamics is in soccer. The aerodynamics of the soccer ball has to do with the interaction of the ball with the soccer ball. The ball curves when the speed is high, and the pressure is low in one side of the ball. Friction is created when a soccer ball is rolling across a field. Projectile motion also plays a part in soccer.

    This is a good video that explains the physics in soccer.
