enough force to make kinetic energy in which is called one unit. When an object is accelerating and hits another object it sends the object in the other direction. On the gauss rifle gravity propels the metal ball into motion. The impact from that ball forces the other ball into motion while stopping the original ball. The gauss rifle can be experimented with to shoot the ball a longer or shorter distance. By making different stages in the rifle you can increase or decrease the amount of force that

When executing a jump shot, I can better interpret and critique mechanics, from a sagittal perspective. Shooting a jump shot involves complete synchronization of the entire body and joints. The initiation of a jump shot, once the ball is caught your legs are in a position of abduction.In a downward motion with your lower extremity simultaneous flexion of the knees and hips, while your ankles are in a postion of dorsiflexion. If the shooter dominate is right-hand; their left hand is only there to

I say to myself looking at the large grey crate in front of me. And I know I can do it. I just have to concentrate. I sit criss cross on the hard floor closing my eyes. I slowly raise my hand in the direction of the crate. I could feel it. The Force. It flowed through me as I focused on the crate. I could sense it rising in the air moving to a different spot. I had done it. I slowly lowered my hand letting the crate down with

During this past week of tremendous physics class we have been experimenting with yet again another awesome lab! It is called the Stomp Rocket Lab. Stomp Rockets are plastic projectiles that are launched when a bunch of air is being pressure out by the hit or stomp of a foot. Typically, the launch angle can varies due to how the student corresponds the pressure and angle of the rocket itself. That was one of the biggest reasons why everyone had different time and speed reactions. We used stopwatches

The case study about Nordstrom describes about the Sales per Hour (SPH) incentives compensation system to employees as a performance measure instrument. The main problems that have been face by Nordstrom are employee’s dissatisfaction and labor disputes. Under this system employer measures the performance of a sales person by weekly sales divided by hours worked. The employee that meets the target or achieve more than the targeted amount will be rewarded better rewards such as working shift which

Simple Machines Experiment 9 – Simple Pulleys Introduction Simple pulleys are a form of simple machines that makes heavy loads easier to lift. They have a grooved wheel that is used for a rope or belt to ride, and allows a force that is acting on one direction, to be changed to another more useful direction. Types of simple pulley: • Fixed Pulley – A pulley that is stationary relative to the earth • Movable Pulley – A pulley that is allowed to move freely, being cradled by a rope or belt.

Group Project Homework: Ch 1 page 28 10) Although forces in the foreign environment are the same as those in the domestic environment, they operate differently. Why is this so? The concept of forces in business should affect the foreign and domestic environment the same, but in actuality the forces in the two environments act differently. First the values of differing countries can create rifts in businesses around the world. Many incidents occur where a country will place an embargo on another

objects moving in two dimensions. The most common example of an object that is moving in two dimensions is a projectile. Thus, Lesson 2 of this unit is devoted to understanding the motion of projectiles. A projectile is an object upon which the only force acting is gravity. There are a variety of examples of projectiles. An object dropped from rest is a projectile (provided that the influence of air resistance is negligible). An object that is thrown vertically upward is also a projectile (provided
