Welcome to my website everyone! This page is designed for high school students, teachers, scholars, and Physics and hockey fans.

Please take the time to explore all the details of my site.

Have you ever asked yourself, "What are the physics behind skating and shooting a puck on ice?"
Now is the time to have your questions about the physics of hockey answered.

This guide is divided into three categories: sliding friction, momentum, and an experiment. Beginning with skating, which is an interaction between the sliding blade and the ice surface, the properties of ice and sliding friction will be explored. The scientists and their contributions will also be introduced. Afterwards, we will examine another aspect of hockey: shooting. When a player shoots a puck with the blade of his or her stick, there is a collision involving momentum. Lastly, an experiment to epitomize most of the content discussed was conducted to validate and also ellaborate further on these concepts.

Before we carry on, enter the next page to learn about the magical properties of ice.
