Q

-Using Newtons Analogue of N1, explain the conservation of Angular Momentum?

A

A body will continue to rotate with constant Angular Momentum until
acted on by an eccentric, off centre force

AM=MI XAV
Once in flight, any change in AV will lead to a change in MI to conserve AM
(shape)= can be manipulated to conserve and change MI AND AV

Q

Conservation of Angular Momentum Main points?

A

Once angular momentum has been created it’s a product of MI and AV
As MI increases AV decreases and vice versa
This means AM once generated is not changed, and remains constant
This means they can rotate for a long period of time and it cannot be changed

Q

Using Newtons laws of motion explain how a basketball player achieves maximum height within a layup shot?

A

n1 (inertia) = will remain on the floor untill a force is generated
The force applied needs to be greater than the players inertia

n2( acceleration)= the rate of change of momentum upwards vertically is proportional to the downwards force applied to the court

The player will act in the SAME DIERCTION of the force which is applied

n3(reaction)= will be an equal and opposite reaction force to the players action force, allowing them to move upwards vertically
