- Third Party Resource Title: Scaling Sizes of Sports Field
- Third Party Resource Link: https://serc.carleton.edu/teaching_computation/workshop_2020/activities/239242.html
- Description: This is a MATLAB live script that guides students to learn about the kinematics of thrown balls in various sports. It helps the students learn about simple numerical methods to solve differential equations, as well as compare trajectories with and without drag. Finally, students will compare different sports based on the relative size of the field to the furthest distance a single touch/throw/hit/smash can send the projectile in the sport.
