Hockey and law of conservation HELP!
Choose a sport -HOCKEY
a) list all types of energy that you feel are relevant to this sport
b) describe two tranformations of energy from one form to another
c) suggest one way in which you feel consideration of the law of conservation of energy has brought about changes in the way the sport is now being played, or could be used to improve the sport.
MY WORK
a)*chemical potentioal energy
*elastic potential energy
*rotational energy
* biochemical energy
*sound energy
*thermal energy
*kinetic energy
b)Both player and earth’s gravity do work on the hockey stick as it descends during a slap shot, transferring kinetic energy to the stick. The work done in bending the stick during the initial contact with the puck stores elastic potential energy in the stick. As the shot is completed the potential energy of the stick is transformed into kenetioc energy of the stick. The kinetic energy of the stick will be transformed into both kinetic energy of the puck and sound energy. (two colours are the tranformation i believe are correct)
c) I have no idea what to write down on this one. I am assuming it will have to do with the puck somehow ... but i can't really grasp the idea behind this...
