Sports Mechanics Of Tennis The hitting and subsequent motion of a tennis ball in playing a forehand topspin Abstract The forehand topspin is one of the primary techniques that is utilised in modern day tennis. It has been used to enhance a player’s overall forehand skills that result in the maximising of a players groundstroke power output. This report will analyse the motions the tennis player and tennis ball undergo‚ the forces acting on the player and the ball and lastly‚ the force transformation

04/29/2011 Automobile Repair and Mechanics Automobile repair is not only an interesting field to me‚ also I feel automobile maintenance is necessary knowledge to have in today’s auto market. Like studying for school or learning the skills of a job; I feel knowing how to repair a vehicle will produce a cost effective lifestyle‚ and take out all the hassle anyone who owns a vehicle encounters everyday. How many Americans can change their own oil that don’t work as mechanics‚ or what is the average repair

1. Using diagrams and/or graphs‚ explain the following terms: a. Pressure Head pressure head [′presh·ər ‚hed] (fluid mechanics) Also known as head. The height of a column of fluid necessary to develop a specific pressure. The pressure of water at a given point in a pipe arising from the pressure in it. b. Total Discharge Head Total discharge head refers to the actual physical difference in height between the liquid level in the pit and the highest point of the discharge pipe or water level in

Quantum Mechanics In 1758 scientist found that the gases giving off by the burning materials emitted different colors of lights of spectrums. Not all the colors of the rainbow appeared and they were black gaps in the spectrum. 1802 it was discovered the solar spectrum had tiny gaps‚ they were many thin dark light in the rainbow colors. 100 years ago ‚ the hot solid gave continuos spectrum and the overall color of the line revealed the temperature of the object. This discovery made it possible

Statistical mechanics or statistical thermodynamics[note 1] is a branch of physics that applies probability theory‚ which contains mathematical tools for dealing with large populations‚ to the study of the thermodynamic behavior of systems composed of a large number of particles. Statistical mechanics provides a framework for relating the microscopic properties of individual atoms and molecules to the macroscopic bulk properties of materials that can be observed in everyday life‚ therefore explaining

Quantum Mechanics ~Three physicists were instrumental: Heisenberg‚ De Broglie‚ and Schrodinger ~Their approach stemmed from De Broglie’s matter wave concept known as "Wave Mechanics" or "Quantum Mechanics" ~ Bohr’s model was inefficient for atoms other than hydrogen or poly-electronic atoms ~ This new approach to a model of the atom focused on the concept of wave functions ~ Since electrons are particles and therefore have wave properties ~ Schrodinger viewed the electron as a standing wave
