archery sport history
In science we are doing a presentation about archery please try and help me!
1-when was it invented
2-who invented it
3-what country was it invented in
4- how much has it changed for history
5-describe what is in motion
6-name 2 things that are invovled in determining the speed or the accuracy
7-show how work is done
8-show how newton's laws apply to the sport
9-what could an athlete do to improve performance
10-show forces and motion
11-role of friction
1,2,3: Prehistoric invention, around the time fire was discovered.
4: Developed safer food gathering, safer soldiers, the implements have improved from curved tree branch with hemp string, to compound bows with telescopic eyesight guides, 14th century development of modified compound bow with a trigger mechanism.
5: All components plus the archer.
6: The pound resistance developed by the bow and string strengths; determination by the archer as to what elevation curve the arrow propels, for both distance and accuracy.
7: The speed which the arrow is first let go by the archer develops a spring-action from the bow, which also guides the arrow with friction along the bow's guide stock.
8: Newton says that for every action there is an opposite and equal reaction, which occurs several times during the aiming, releasing the arrow, the arrow sliding along the bowstock, the arrow penetrating the air and traveling through it, and when the arrow lands, hits its mark, or penetrates its mark.
9: Focus on resistance training for calming his/her muscle tension during the aiming process, where steadiness and strength to hold in place the bow and arrow set up while zoning in on the target.
10: See Newton's Laws of Physics.
11: See question 7.
