Glide, Spin, & Jump - The Science of Ice Skating: Volume 2: Data and Graphs for Science Lab: Rotational (Curved) Motion: Footwork (Paperback)

Learn about the Physics of Ice Skating Translational and Rotational Motion Position, Velocity, Acceleration, & Force In this book, readers gain access to real scientific data pertaining to the science of ice skating, promoting graph-reading, comparison, contrast, and calculation skills. Graphs show data from the following scientific instruments: Wireless Dynamics Sensor System Force Plate This book allows readers to analyze real data without purchasing expensive lab equipment. Graphs show the movement of a skater across synthetic ice. Moves demonstrated include starting and stopping, forward and backward stroking, turning and footwork (3-turns, brackets, rockers, counters, mohawks, and choctaws), and gliding (camel position, spirals). These data can be used for lesson plans by teachers and parents. Bonus Material: Other features include graphs of the forces involved in stepping, and graphs of a skater falling through thin ice. Plus, appendices include diagrams of a left-right color-coded cartoon character, "Blue Dude," demonstrating footwork and skating positions.
