Kinematics can be defined as the motion of objects without reference to the forces that cause it. That being said, I have chosen to explain how Kinematics is present in paddling. Paddling involves a continuous, repetitive set of movements that involves mainly the arms, back and hips. As these movements are repeated from a stop, the canoe will accelerate until it has reached a constant speed. This can be calculated by putting velocity (how fast something is moving in a direction) over a period of time. If the canoe were going at a constant pace, the speed could be calculated by the equation v = d/t. For example, if the canoe traveled a distance of 20 meters in 2 seconds, you would find that the canoe was traveling at an average speed of 10m/s.
That's a cool picture! are you paddling for the school this year?
