Abstract:
Soccer isn’t just a game that involves moving a ball across a field, like all sports it requires physics. Soccer not only exemplifies Newton’s three laws of motion but also includes friction, projectile motion and the Magnus Effect. First I explain how Newton’s three laws of motion are involved with soccer. I then explain how friction and projectile motion play a part of the game. Lastly I explain the magnus effect and its role in scoring a goal. Knowing these things you should learn more about the science behind soccer that makes it possible as well as helping you improve in a game.
Dear Ash, A great presentation here. I especially liked the history of the sport, as you taught me more than just the physics. I didn't know the length of the field, for example. The one fact I found most intriguing was that Newton's Third Law applies here! Nice!
ReplyDeleteSoccer is an awesome sport, and this presentation has only increased my love for it. Great project!
ReplyDeleteThis was a very eye opening presentation, great job! I enjoyed reading about the Magnus effect and how its a prevalent force in soccer.

ReplyDeleteI've never liked soccer, but this presentation really changed my perspective on it. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI have been playing soccer for 5 years now. I would have not known that the same force that is being applied on the ball is the same force being applied on my foot. That is mind blowing.
ReplyDeleteGreat presentation, made me look at soccer in a different perspective and has shown me how much physics is at play in this beautiful sport
ReplyDeletewow! great stuff! I learned so much from this
