PHYS 1201. Sports and Physics. (3) Fundamental physics
concepts will be introduced and discussed using only sports-related
applications, primarily golf, baseball/softball, and auto racing.
Specific physics concepts include forces, Newton’s Laws, conservation
of energy, conservation of linear momentum, conservation of angular
momentum, Bernoulli’s principle for fluid flow, centripetal force,
vibrations and sound, and heat transfer. In addition, an understanding
of materials characteristics will be important to the discussions.
