Introduction to Science of
Basketball
It is a fun sports and it
is very physical
sport and it makes
you use your brain.
Potential Energy
 When basketball
players are waiting
to take a foul shot
they are wait so
they can
concentrate on the
shot.
Kinetic Energy
 When a player is
dunking that is
kinetic energy
because there in
motion.
Digestive System
 The digestive
system
mechanically and
chemically gives the
body energy from
food and liquids.
Respiratory System
 Uses energy to clean
incoming air,gets
oxygen into our body
and remove carbon
dioxide
 Basketball players need
a healthy respiratory
system so they can
breathe easily and not
lose their breath.
Circulatory System
 Makes the blood go
around the body to
the heart.
 This system helps
basketball players
not have a heart
attack.
Excretory System
 Excretory system is
what makes you
sweat.
 Basketball players
sweat a lot to cool
their bodies off.
Muscular System
 The muscular
system is what
makes you have
muscles.
 Basketball players
need muscles
because they need
to be able to jump
and run to the ball.
Electric Energy
 Electric energy is
what makes
electricity. There is
electricity in
basketball such as a
shot clock and a
television.
Energy Transformation
 Energy can change
from potential to
kinetic to heat.
Basketball players
still have energy
when they stay still
and then they move
and get hot.
Conserving Energy
 Basketball players
need to save energy
because they need
it for game time.
 They also need it to
be able to dunk the
ball and run up and
down the court
Newton’s 1st Law of Motion
 Newton’s 1st Law says
something will keep
moving unless a force
makes it stop and
something will stay still
unless a force makes it
move.
 An example in
basketball would be
when a player takes a
charge.
Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion
 Newton’s 2nd Law
says that the more
force the faster
something moves.
 An example in
basketball is when a
player is on a fast
break trying to
make a lay up.
Newton’s 3rd Law of Motion
 What is Newton’s
3rd Law of Motion?
 For every action
there’s a reaction.
For example when a
basketball player is
dribbling the ball it
comes back up.
Machines
 For example when a
player is using a
workout machine to
strengthen his or
her muscles.
Conclusion
 In conclusion
basketball has a lot
to do with science
because it works
your body and it
defines gravity.
