Lacrosse is a fast-paced sport which is played on a 110 yard long field with teams of 2 who have 10 players each. Most people describe lacrosse as a mix of field hockey, baseball, and a tiny bit of soccer.
The apparent force that draws a rotating body away from the center of rotation. It is caused by the inertia of the body as the body's path is continually redirected. The term centrifugal force is used to refer to one of two distinct concepts: an inertial force observed in a non-inertial reference frame, and a reaction force corresponding to a centripetal force. is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: its direction is always orthogonal to the velocity of the body, toward the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path. Centripetal force is generally the cause of circular motion.
An example of Newton’s and Law in lacrosse is when the force of a ball in the air is equal to the mass of the ball multiplied by the acceleration of the ball.
The ball is being acted upon by the sticks when a pass is thrown. The ball will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Some forces that can act on the ball are gravity, wind resistance, and/or another stick receiving the pass. When shooting the ball it can also stop when it hits the net. Centripetal force is created when shooting or passing when the stick moves forward and the mesh stretching out. Sticks will also stay in motion unless they hit another player or they are stopped by your hands. Lastly, players will stay in motion unless hit by a stick or another player or they come to a stop by themselves.
Shooting is very similar to passing, just with much more power.
A player maximizes the power of his shot by as he drives his foot into the ground, allows him to convert his linear momentum from the run up to the shot into rotational momentum. A player conserves this momentum through his hips and torso. A player usually rotates their shoulders of 1,000 degrees per second during a shot. By pivoting the stick through your upper hand, creating force in both the upper and lower hands, you generate large torque forces and throw the ball great distances. The tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis, fulcrum, or pivot. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist to an object.
