journal 2


This is my dad windsurfing! Windsurfing is basically all physics. The velocity increases as the board is pushed by the waves' force and the sail is pushed by the wind's force. The velocity increases as you sail down the wave. The acceleration increases as you continue down the wave because the board is moving forward and the change in velocity is positive.
I like windsurfing (even though i don't do it much) and it all depends on how you use the physics!!
