The physics of luge

(Die Physik des Rennschlittensports)

The objective of this unit is to develop an understanding of the basic concepts and terms of kinematics, and of the mathematical relationships between them. As a result of completing the activities of this unit, the learner will be able to: Describe what is meant by the displacement, velocity and acceleration, including how these quantities are related to one another. Use software and images to measure displacement, velocities and acceleration for a luge traveling down a track. Understand the use of vectors to describe displacement, velocity and acceleration in two and three dimensional motion.
