Physics affects the gymnast in gymnastics. Think about it...gravity is the force that pulls the gymnast down. Newton's first law of motion (an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force) is applied when the gymnast is rotating on the bars; his or her own momentum is the force that propels them. Newton's second law of motion (force=mass x acceleration) is applied when the gymnast is trying to move: the heavier the gymnast, the more force is necessary to make him or her move. Newton's third law of motion (every action has an equal and opposite reaction) applies when the beam is supporting the gymnast: the beam exerts an equal force on the gymnast to keep him or her from falling over. So, there you go!

What year did the rule for a sixteen year minimum for women's gymnastics come into affect?
The International Federation of Gymnastics passed that rule in 1992.
How physics is related to basketball?
Well, obviously kinematics, gravity, and velocity affect basketball. Especially when you're shooting the ball.
Where did Beth tweddle train for gymnastics?
Hartford school of gymnastics
Has chili ever won a medal in gymnastics in the Olympics?
No, not only has Chile not won a gymnastics medal ... they have never sent an athlete to the Olympics to compete in gymnastics.
Examples of modern physics?
Quantum Physics, Astronomical Physics
How does science play a role in gymnastics?
it involves physics, which depend on mass and weight.
What year did the rule for a sixteen year minimum for women's gymnastics come into affect?
The International Federation of Gymnastics passed that rule in 1992.
Does gymnastics affect growth rate?
No! It's just that small people are most successful at gymnastics! Well, that's as far as I know, at least
How does fencing affect physics?
It doesn't. Fencing takes place in the physical world, and so it's action is ruled by the laws of physics, not the other way around. Physics is exactly the same whether fencing take place or not. How does physics affect fencing? Do your own homework.
How does physics affect the society?
Well, I know that society ignores physics because they believe the official story on the JFK assassination and it fails to agree with physics.
What are the mechanics of gymnastics?
The mechanics involve such things as the function of bones as levers, the forces exerted by muscles, the use of equipment such as a horse as a fulcrum. Gymnastics is not normally analysed in that way, however, since it is more of a sport than a problem in physics.
What is the relationship with quantum physics and creme brulee?
Nothing. Quantum physics does not have any rules that affect physical objects
Are there any science experiments in to do involving gymnastics?
Gymnastics is a lot about physics, rotation speed, and angles. There is a surprising amount of math involves in gymnastics, though most people do not tend to look at it from a mathematical perspective.
How can gymnastics affect your life?
it can give you fame which affects your life at the same time if you don't get it right you can get incredibly injured and that can affect your life to hope i was helpful :D
Will being tall make gymnastics hard for you?
Most say that being taller can affect your skills with gymnastics. This is only half true. Most men are taller than women, and they compete in the Olympics. Every body is different, and each (being tall and small) has its advantages. If you want to try competitive gymnastics, sometimes being tall will make it tough. Sometimes you may be moved up a division due to your height. If you are doing recreational gymnastics, it will not affect you much at all.
What sports involve physics?
Many sports involve physics principles, including soccer (trajectory of a ball in flight), basketball (momentum and forces in collisions), and gymnastics (rotation and angular momentum). Understanding physics can help athletes optimize their performance and technique in various sports.
Do people have to do gymnastics?
no people do not have to do gymnastics
