question: "Both texts explore aspects of humanity. How does the context of each text affect the ideas represented and techniques used?" Both Frankenstein‚ by Mary Shelley‚ and Blade Runner‚ by Ridley Scott‚ are products of their time that crystallize the fears‚ uncertainties and desires of their age. Frankenstein is representative of the Romantic and enlightenment context‚ exploring humanity at a time when there was increased emphasis on the desire for knowledge and exploitation of science

Biomechanics relates to the laws of mechanics and physics to human performance (Shooting Techniques Biomechanics‚ 2007). However psychology is the study of the mind and behaviour. Some biomechanics principles that are related to archery include balance‚ first class levers‚ newtons first law of motion and the projectile/height

It’s the laws and principals of mechanics about human performance in order to gain greater in-depth understanding and knowledge about specific details. It is important to have wide understanding of the applications of physics into sport‚ as physical principles such as motion‚ resistance‚ momentum and friction play a part in most sports.
