Overview

Hands-on experiments help the student to understand the physical principles underlying sports action. Is it better to be left-handed in baseball? Are their limits to running records? How do you measure the velocity of a hockey puck? How do levers in sports (for example, fishing poles and lacrosse sticks) work?

Discusses how such principles of physics as force, gravity, and momentum apply to a variety of athletic actions, with experiments for the reader to try.
