Sujitha and Rizwanaah, two best friends, were on the badminton court one day. They just finished their Science class and have a badminton practice schedule. They decided to head together.

When they arrived at the badminton court, they immediately prepared their equipment and began playing.

They decided to take a break after a few minutes of playing. During a break, Sunghoon recognized that their Science topic, Uniformly Acclerated Motion (UAM) and Projectile Motion, were relevant to their badminton game.

Hey, Jungwon! Playing badminton is a good example of our Science topic, UAM or Projectile Motion, which I recently realized.
Oh, my goodness... yeah! Why didn't I think of that (laughs)? Since projectile motion determines the path of an object when it is hit, hurled, or launched. In fact, three aspects of projectile motion are discussed: release angle, release height, and release speed.

You're correct, you're right! In badminton, projectile motion is a form of motion in which an object (referred to as a projectile) is launched, and the object (the shuttlecock) makes contact with the racket. Under the influence of gravity, it follows a curved path.
All right, let's go!
Wow Sunghoon, it appears that our topic has taught us a lot. Anyway, would you like to play once more?

The two continue to play their game. They are, after all, correct! UAM, or Projectile Motion, is exemplified through physical sports such as badminton. They played for two and a half hours before heading home together.
