1. PHYSICS OF THE WINTER OLYMPICS IBMYP Physics Project Part Two

2. SPECIFICATIONS: PART II PLEASE ADD PART II TO PART I AND TURN IN AS ONE FINAL PROJECT. Include an intro slide identifying your sport, with your name, a title and a nice graphic. ( This would be the next slide you add to Part I of the project.)  You can re-use your existing design or create a new slide, but your slide should display the words “Part 2” in a prominent location. Create a free-body diagram showing the forces acting on a participant (or piece of equipment) during the event.  The object/participant may NOT be at rest in your diagram.  You must include a picture on this slide as well as a caption that clearly explains what is occurring.  You may include up to 2 free-body diagrams showcasing different objects or situations (on different slides), but only 1 is required.

3. SPECIFICATIONS: PART II On three separate slides, identify and explain three physics principles that are relevant to your sport.  You may use what you have learned so far in this class, along with original research.  If you get an idea or information from a video or other source (online or in print), you must CITE the source at the bottom of your slide.  If there is a Paralympic version of your sport, 1 of your 3 slides may compare the physics of the Olympic sport to that of the Paralympic sport. However, the focus must still be on the physics principles involved. Finally, write and include an original, creative problem that incorporates the physics of your event.  You will turn in a solution as well; the solution can be written by hand and does not need to be part of your PowerPoint.  You may NOT copy or rewrite a problem you found from another source, such as the Internet. The problem must be your original work.

4. VIDEO LINKS In Part 1 of the project, you included a link to a video showcasing some element of the science behind your sport. You may want to use that, or another video or interactive graphic, as a starting point for your analysis. The links that were given in Part 1 of the instructions are copied below for easy reference:  Science of the Olympic Winter Games 2010 Science of the Olympic Winter Games 2010  Science and engineering of the Olympic Winter Games 2014 Science and engineering of the Olympic Winter Games 2014  New York Times Sochi Olympics interactive graphics New York Times Sochi Olympics interactive graphics Remember to cite these or any other sources you use in compiling your analysis.

5. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Save/export your presentation in PowerPoint (.ppt,.pptx) or PDF (.pdf) format (full page slides) with the filename: LName_OlympicsFinal.ppt (or.pptx/.pdf)  For example, I would use: Shoaf_OlympicsFinal.pptx or Shoaf_OlympicsFinal.pdf Submit your assignment 9 p.m. on Wednesday, March 19, 2014 via email at scottyg.shoaf@gaggle.cms.k12.nc.us.
