The Physics of Equestrian Jumping
Welcome to the home page for our physics 24 web project. For this project we chose to analyze the physical aspects of jumping horses, applying the concepts that we have learned in physics 24. In addition to that we have thrown in some interesting facts about the equestrian sport for all of those horse lovers out there. Let us know if you have any comments or suggestions and thanks for stopping by!
