Projectile motion..
A projectile Is anything that flies through the air
Projectile motion is the way the projectile moves through the air
What are the projectiles we have in sport?
Throwing a Basketball
Shooting a Netball
Kneeling - it was harder because it takes more force for the ball to reach your partner
Standing - it was easier because you were able to use force summation
If the ball got more height it would reach your partner better.
Gravity
What does gravity actually do?
Gravity is what brings an object back down and pulls it to the centre of the earth
The rougher something is the more air resistance it has
Which object has the most air resistance? basketball/netball/football
Basketball - basketball has the most surface area and its heavier which means that it will have the most air resistance
To throw a basketball as far as you can you would want to use your momentum and force summation to get the most power and force out of your pass as possible. A run up would also be another great way to get the force and the most power out of a long distance pass.
