Baseball The Physics behind the ball CJ_Wilson_pitching.jpg ------------------------------------------------------Introduction----------------------------------------------------------                        Almost anything in our universe is applicable in some way or fashion to the study of physics.  The subject of study can describe a vast range of subjects from the motion of the small particles that make up our own bodies to the motion of entire galaxies in our universe.  The subject is vast enough that it takes thousands of physicists working together to be able as a human race to understand different aspects and applications of the material.  And because the subject is so vast this website will only focus on two things parabolic motion and rotational motion which can be and will be applied to baseball, specifically how the balls path is affected by the forces of gravity and the rotation (such as with a fastball or a curve ball).
