Glide, Spin, & Jump: The Science Of Ice Skating: Volume 5: Data And Graphs For Science Lab: Hockey

Learn about the Physics of Ice Skating!Translational and Rotational Motion! Position, Velocity, Acceleration, Force, & Friction!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: Dual-Range Force Meter Video Analysis This book allows readers to analyze real data without purchasing expensive lab equipment. Graphs show hockey pucks as they travel across different surfaces, including real ice, synthetic ice, wood, and carpet. Experiments contain both an official ice hockey puck and a practice puck. Additional graphs show data from an air hockey table with and without the friction-reducing effects of air, as well as the movement of the air hockey puck on real ice. A series of coordinated graphs contain data on both initial force and motion. Collisions of hockey pucks with a wood surface are also included. These data can be used for lesson plans by teachers and parents.
