Motion

“In physics, motion is a change in position of an object with respect to time.”

• Running the bases• Moving the bat• Pitching• Catching

Speed

“In kinematics, the speed of an object is the magnitude of its velocity.”

• Running the bases• The speed of the bat• Speed of throwing a ball• Running to make a catch

Velocity

“In physics, velocity is the measurement of the rate and direction of change in the position of an object.”

• Speed of a hit• Speed of a swing• When throwing different types of balls• Swinging• Rotation of ball

Sliding Friction

“Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and/or material elements sliding against each other.”

• When sliding into a base• Sliding to catch a ball• When a ball is rolling

Gravity

“Gravity, is a natural phenomenon by which physical bodies attract with a force proportional to their mass.”

• When a ball falls down from a hit• When throwing a ball and it drops
