Do It Better

My and my group did our Do It Better on Physics of Sports. We did this project over a total of two weeks. We filmed a punt and field goal kick which occur in football.  We used our videos for both the punt and kick to calculate the physics of both.  We filmed many different angles to get cooler shots and to show different aspects of the punt and kick. 

This project is an improvement from the last time because my last group only did one aspect which was throwing a football. This time we did kicking and added punting so that it could be more unique and show the difference between the two.

We used a story board for our filming to plan out each day and what we were going to accomplish that day. 

Punt

Velocity before=3.72m.s= 8.32mph

Angle=90 degrees

Horizantal Velocity= 8.3m/s= 18.56mph

Vertical Velocity= 18.17m/s= 36.17mph

t=3.33s in air

Total Velocity on way down= 17.7m/s= 39.59mph

Total Velocity on way up= 23.62m/s=  52.83mph

Air resistance= 7.8m/s= 17.5mph

Air Resistance Acceleration= -2.36m/s squared= -5.3mph

Force of Impact= 875N= 197Punds

Transfer of momentum= 11kgm/s

Kick

Velocity Before= 0

Velocity Horizantal=10m/s = 22.37mph

Velocity Vertical= 14.4m/s= 32.21mph

Veloctiy total= 27m/s = 60.40mph

Force of Contact= 1300N= 292.25pounds

Angle= 32 degrees

Transfer of Momentum= p=mv

Reflection

Me and my group I feel like accomplished things well. We flew through everything and did good work in the process. We each participated and put in quality time to the project. I feel like my critical thinking was good because I was evaluating our project and thinking of good ideas to help our project. I also feel like my communication was pretty good because I said what I thought and used my opinions and others to make our project better. I feel like my creativity was not the best though because our video is a little basic. I also feel like my collaborative working could have been better because there were times when I was a little off task and wasn't focusing completely on the project.
