Assignment+for+The+Physics+of+Sports

=  = ** Assignment after the AP Physics B Exam **    Yea! We made it to the Exam…now let’s have some fun with…..    = The Physics of Sports =   You will be researching a sport of your interest. You explain the physics of that sport using any of your knowledge of physics and of that specific sport. This should be about the physics of the sport, but you might want to give a little background on the sport you chose to do your voicethread (no more than 1 slide). This assignment is worth a test grade in your 4th quarter grade for AP Physics.   You must get your “sport” approved by Ms. Schelbe. There may not be any repeats within the class. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;"> <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 19px;">◊ Go to Wikispaces and create a login <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 19px;">◊Search for “PhysicsofSports” and ask to join.
