ballet dancers you think of grace and beauty. While you watch a dancer dance you never think of the physics and mathematics behind their every move. Physics is described as a thing that is all about measurement‚ and that if you know the units of measurement that physics uses and how they work you will understand everything else you’ll learn about (Dennis and Moring 1). The textbook definition of physics is “the study of matter and energy and their relationships” (Zitzewitz 1). Ballet cannot be defined

Now click and drag the red ball around the screen. Make 3 observations about the blue and green arrows (also called vectors) as you drag the ball around. 1. The green line points in the direction that the ball is going to go 2. The blue line changes the

People sometimes engage in activities and are unaware that such activity involves physics. Physics is all around. For instance‚ you may go to Six Flags and do not analyze how physics helps the machines you ride in operate. Have you ever asked yourself how a roller coaster works? Would roller coasters safely run without the knowledge that physics offers us? The answer is no. Roller coasters are driven by physics; it mobilizes and gives its riders amusement through forces such as inertia‚ gravitation

application of physics’ principles such as momentum‚ friction‚ gravity‚ and even momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity‚ meaning that it needs a magnitude and direction‚ and this expression is mathematically defined as p=mv. The momentum is equal to the mass times velocity. In wrestling‚ two colliding wrestlers are subject to a change in momentum. For instance‚ a wrestler will attempt to apply an impulsive force north for as long as possible and as

equation proposed by eminent scholars is compared against with ours‚ our findings can hardly pale into insignificance as errors and the cause of uncertainty are discussed and ways to improve the experiment are suggested‚ which can possibly spur further studies on this realm of knowledge. I. Introduction In physics‚ there are mainly two ways from which useful equations can be derived. One from them is to make good use of the mathematical expression of the theories formulated by our predecessors. An archetype

III. Data Analysis For this analysis‚ it was used descriptive statistics of a data set with four variables in order to describe the performance of the motion picture industry. First‚ the study involved measures of Location which include: mean‚ median‚ mode. In addition‚ it was analyzed measures of variability of the data set which include: variance‚ range‚ and standard deviation. Moreover‚ the outliers movies were identified by calculating the z-score of each variable. Finally‚ it was measured the

accelerating‚ then there is a force on it. Consistent with the first law‚ the time derivative of the momentum is non-zero when the momentum changes direction‚ even if there is no change in its magnitude; such is the case with uniform circular motion. The relationship also implies the conservation of momentum: when the net force on the body is zero‚ the momentum of the body is constant. Any net force is equal to the rate of change of the momentum. Any mass that is gained or lost by the
