Entry Two: Triumph in the Pool

On Friday, the Iolani Division II Mens Water Polo Team defeated their opponents, the Pack-Five Wolfpack. At one point in the game, there was physics, and that helped the ball travel from #14 Drew Limm's hand into the back of the enemy net. When the ball left his hand, it shot straight into the corner of the goal without moving up. Its velocity, v, could be expressed (approximately) in polar notation as (2m/s, 0°) since its path was level with the pool. Or, for fans of rectangular notation, v could be notated as (2m/s, 0m/s). In any case, the ball did experience an acceleration of (0 m/s/s,-9.8m/s/s) due to the effects of gravity, but this did not stop it from reaching the goal. This goal contributed to our victory, and our victory will encourage our coaches, Alex Price '06 and Tai Sunnland '05, to let us play wall-ball.

The ball, v =(0 m/s,0 m/s). Soon it shall penetrate the enemy defense and plunge itself deep within the goalie's net.
