Biomechanical principles: Newton's laws of motion, force and the use…

- - - - Wind tunnels are often used in sports such as cycling to allow bike manufactures to develop the most aerodynamic bike as possible. Having a more aerodynamic bike means that you can go a lot faster as the air is able to easily pass though the bike reducing the effects of air resistance.
    - - Limb Kinematics is often used in sports such as golf and baseball
        to allow a coach to look in-depth at an athletes technique and see if there is anyways to improve the technique to get better performance out of the athlete or even to reduce the chance of the athlete picking up an injury from consistently using a poor technique.
    - - Force plates are used in any sport that involves running, jumping or balancing. The force plates help to show coaches the stance of an athlete and see if there is anyway that the athletes technique when jumping etc can be improved to allow more power to be used or to avoid injury fro a poor technique.
