Today's most popular athletes rely on physics, math, and sciences to be sure each play is just right. From throwing the perfect fastball to executing the perfect flip turn, there is more involved in our favorite sports than what we seen in highlights on TV. This book examines the scientific elements such as momentum, velocity, and potential energy that contribute to the success of sports' most renowned feats. The Full-Speed Sports series highlights the role science plays in specific aspects of the sports we love to watch and participate in. Clear text, informative diagrams, and relevant sidebars engage students in learning about the science working behind the scenes of their favorite sports. Book jacket.
