Science of NHL Hockey: Projectile Motion

Unlike a slap shot, an NHL wrist shot isnï¿½t about brute power. Itï¿½s about precision ï¿½ putting the puck in the exact spot where the goalie canï¿½t reach it. A wrist shot is also a perfect example of whatï¿½s known in physics as projectile motion. "Science of NHL Hockey" is a 10-part video series funded by the National Science Foundation and produced in partnership with the National Hockey League....
