Learn about the Physics of Balls Focus: Rolling & Colliding
Force, Trajectory, Velocity, & Acceleration In this book,
readers gain access to real scientific data pertaining to balls,
promoting graph-reading, comparison, contrast, and calculation
skills. Graphs show data from the following scientific instruments:
Video Analysis Dual-Range Force Meter This book allows readers to
analyze real data without purchasing expensive lab equipment.
Graphs show the motion of a tennis ball, cricket ball, racquetball,
lacrosse ball, softball, field hockey ball, street hockey balls
(high and low density), and Swedish wood hockey puck-handling ball
as they roll on flat surfaces and inclined planes. A set of
coordinated graphs also show the motion due to force on each ball
on a flat wood surface. The graphs and data contained in this book
can be used by teachers and parents to supplement traditional
lesson plans. Bonus Material: In the appendix, graphs show video
analysis of a basketball, soccer ball, volleyball, dodge ball, 3
baseballs (official, safety, and plastic), 3 golf balls (official,
foam and plastic), a ping pong ball, and a plastic apple rolling.
The graphs of these balls, which were originally analyzed with a
motion detector in Volume 2, are included for comparison and
contrast.
