Physics and Football


Alright, first thing, I only speak the truth on this blog. I ain't going to sugarcoat anything, or lie about anything. That being said, the Iolani Raiders lost to Saint Louis this Friday. It was not enjoyable, but football is where a ton of physics goes down. There is projectile motion in throwing of the football, kicking, punting, and even the throwing of penalty flags (Which Saint Louis had a lot of). There is also a lot of force and accleration in football, especially when hitting. Not to mention inertia. The linemen have to stop huge blizters from getting to the QB and the recievers have to accelerate faster than their defenders to get down feild. Since we were playing at the stadium, that reminded me of that lab we did about work and that guysgetting to his top-level seats. After that game on Friday, I'm really looking to this long three-day weekend to not do work...just kidding, I need to catch up on my homeworks. (go Steelers!) Here is some FB pics
Next week my post will be sick...
