wind energy

Hockey is an amazing, intense sport to watch and play. Although many people do not realize it, unless they stop to think about it, there are also a number of different ways that physics affects the way the game operates. Four of these aspects would include the passing of a puck, the skating of a player, the stopping of a puck by a goalie or a player and the checking of a player by another player. All of these demonstrate multiple aspects of physics. First of all, there is the passing of a puck. When a player passes a puck, he applies a force to it with his hockey stick. Depending on the force exerted the stick, the speed of the puck will vary from having a great speed to having a speed of a lower magnitude. One of the factors that will affect the speed of the puck is the friction of the ice. The less friction there is on the ice, the faster the puck will move. The speed (which is another major aspect of physics) is also affected by the condition the ice is in. If the ice is smooth, then the puck will move faster because the coefficient of kinetic friction is smaller. If the puck is being passed on this ice then it will take a small force to get the puck moving.


This law shows you that when you push off with your back leg into the ice, the ice pushes back with an equal force making you move in the direction that your blades are pointed in and in the direction you want to move in. On the bottom of a skate blade there are small teeth that allow you to have a small amount of friction. This allows the teeth of your skate blades, which are also know as the edges to cut into the ice which allows you to stop without injuring yourself. " If a puck is travelling at a constant motion then anything that gets in its' way would be considered an external force. F= change in momentum/time of impact In conclusion I have figured out that hockey is highly associated with physics. My last point is the checking of a player. This time his law explains why a player doesn't just stop when he is slammed into the boards.
