Sports Science
The link below me shows the amazing speed and acceleration of
a football player called Ndamukong Suh who weighs 307 pounds.
Amazingly for a man of his stature he could run at 13.5 mph in
only 1.3seconds. The amount of force that could come from a hit
from him is definitely enough to leave a person unconscious.

Great video -- They are using photogates to measure his speed. We will use them later in the semester. I think we could do an entire physics course centered around sports. Thanks for sharing!
