Paralympic Ice Hockey
Did you know there is a thing called Paralympic ice hockey? Let me tell you all about it. First is history. It started all in Egypt, Ethiopia, and in Iran. It was on land and that was 4,000 years ago. Modern hockey started in 1875 in England. The first national team was in 1876. And the first rule was invented in 1876. That rule was you cannot lift the stick over your head. The USA Paralympic team has won five gold medals. There first gold medal was in 2002. The girls won theirs's in 1918. Next is equipment: they have a helmet, shoulder pads, chest pads, shin pads, blades, pants, elbow pads, hockey jerseys, and a puck. There are a lot of rules like charging, boarding, contact to head, delay a game, elbowing, hooking, tripping, interference, slashing, roughing, interference, high sticking, holding, holding the stick, unsportsmanlike conduct, and slew foot. The Paralympics are if someone has a prosthetic limb or has a disability. That means they would play in the Paralympics. Men's Paralympic ice hockey started In 1994 and the women started in 1998 and it all started in 1994.
Newton’s first Law is an object in rest will stay at rest and object and motion stays in motion unless acted by a force. Forces are things that make things move. The forces are Gravity, Buoyancy, Friction, Applied, Tension, Magnetic, Spring, Drag. Those are all the forces. Next is my sport. The hockey puck will stay at rest unless the player hits it. Motion is When Something moves In motion. Newton's first law of motion applies to Paralympic ice hockey because there are forces and objects that move. The forces in ice hockey include friction, gravity, drag, and applied force. Friction happens when players hit the puck and it slides on ice. Gravity happens when the puck is shot in the air and it comes back down to the ice. Drag happens when someone hits the hockey puck the puck has drag because the air is hitting it and it is slowing down. An example of applied force is when a goalie pushes off of one side of the post and forces himself to the other post. An object at rest in hockey is when the goalie is at rest. He or she is watching the puck on the other side of the ice.
Newton’s 2 Law is a force, mass, and acceleration. First is force; Paralympic ice hockey has a lot of forces like Friction, applied gravity, and Drag. First is friction. It is like When the puck slides. Next is gravity. It's what happens when the puck Goes in the air and it will stay in the air for a little bit. It will go on the ice again, applied like there blade is on the ice. Next is mass. Mass is what it is made out of. Like The ice is made out of water or like the puck it is made out of rubber The goal is made out of steel and wool and Bored is made out of glass and wood. Last acceleration is how fast or How slow and the direction Like when they hit the puck it accelerates And when the goalie catches it it decelerates or when they start skating they need a lot of drag to accelerate and to decelerate they need friction on the side of their blades.When they hit the puck to a certain corner. And when it hits the boards it will decelerate And then I would bounce another side Acceleration is. And that is Newton’s 2 law.
Newton’s third law is a lot of stuff such as action, reaction, and opposite action. The first is action. Is like When they hit the puck. The action is that it moves and goes very fast or another example Is when the ref drops the puck It hits the ground. Second is reaction. Reaction is something for example is when they hit the puck they move backwards just a little bit but or a another example could be When the rough drops the Puck the puck hits the ground and it goes back up a little bit Another one could be And if I check you into the wall You would bounce back just a little bit And that's a little bit of action and reaction. Last is the opposite action. The opposite action is A little bit of reaction and action almost mixed together For example it would be like I would push backwards even though I'm going forward. For one last example it would be when the goalie pushes off the post one way goes another way. And that is Newton’s third law.
