BASKETBALL & PHYSICS 🏀

Basketball had taught me a lot about physics actually. Im started to play basketball since form 1 (obviously because im a little bit taller). My previous coach was an english teacher but she was the one who convince me about how physics related to these game. 

SHOOTING
Projectile Motion: The trajectory path when shooting a basketball is very significant. There is a horizontal axis to show projectile motion, also known as the x-axis. This axis represents the distance the basketball travels, which increases over time. There is a second axis that is vertical, which is the y-axis. The y-axis commonly represents the height that the player is, along with the height of the ball. As you're shooting a basketball, our brains calculate these things, which helps us score! 

SHOES
The shoes you wear when playing basketball do matter.(compared to any sport shoes) This is due to the friction on the ground. Basketball shoes must have good traction to avoid slipping.
