Sport here)
By: Your Name
Class:
Introduction to Science of
(Type your SPORT here-
Ex-s occer,
basketball, running, dancing, skateboarding, hockey, baseball, cheerleading, gymnastics, race-car driving, ect)
• (Explain 2 reasons
why you chose your
sport here and drag
in a picture of your
sport in the picture
box.)
Potential Energy
• (Explain what
potential energy is
and give an
example of potential
energy in your sport
here. Drag in an
appropriate picture
of potential energy
in the picture box.)
Kinetic Energy
• (Explain what kinetic
energy is and give
an example of
kinetic energy in
your sport here.
Drag an appropriate
picture of something
moving in your sport
in the picture box.)
Digestive System
• Explain what the
digestive system
does, how it uses
energy (how does it
work), and how it
helps your athletes
here.
Respiratory System
• Explain what the
respiratory system
does, how it uses
energy (how does it
work), and how it
helps your athletes
here.
Circulatory System
• Explain what the
circulatory system
does, how it uses
energy (how does it
work), and how it
helps your athletes
here.
Excretory System
• Explain what the
excretory system
does, how it uses
energy (how does it
work), and how it
helps your athletes
here.
Muscular System
• Explain what the
muscular system
does, how it uses
energy (how does it
work), and how it
helps your athletes
here.
Electric Energy
• Describe what
electric energy is
and how it works.
Then, explain 2
ways electric energy
has affected your
sport.
Energy Transformation
• How does the
energy from the
food your athlete
eats affect his/her
body? Explain how
chemical energy in
food changes to
mechanical energy
and heat energy.
Conserving Energy
• How can conserving
energy help
athletes? Give 1-2
reasons here.
Newton’s 1st Law of Motion
• What is Newton’s
1st Law of Motion?
• How does Newton’s
Law of Motion
happen in your
sport? Think- what is
moving in your sport
and how does
friction affect it?
Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
• What is Newton’s
2nd Law of Motion?
• How does Newton’s
2nd Law of Motion
affect your sport?
Think- does more or
less force cause the
ball or player to
accelerate more?
Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion
• What is Newton’s
3rd Law of Motion?
• How does Newton’s
3rd Law of Motion
affect your sport?
Think- how does this
law help us stand on
ground?
Machines
• Describe 2 simple
and complex
machines that help
your athletes. How
do they work, use
energy & force, and
help your athletes?
Conclusion
• Summarize how
science is related to
your sport. Use
energy, body
systems, and force
in your answer.
