Scientists
Isaac Newton.
Who discovered the magnus effect?
The Magnus Effect.
What makes a ball curve?
Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.
Roberto Carlos.
Who is most known to have used the Magnus effect in soccer?
Heinrich Gustav Magnus.
Who is the Magnus effect named after?
When the air is spinning in the same direction of the ball on one side, and the opposite on the other.
What is the Magnus Effect?
Yes. Newton's first law is important to the Magnus effect.
Does Newton's first law of physics apply to the Magnus effect?
On June 3, 1997.
When was the impossible goal made?
Because Heinrich "officially" studied it, while Isaac Newton only came up with the idea.
Why is the Magnus effect named after Heinrich Magnus?
Yes, in fact, it happens in pretty much all sports including a ball.
Dose the Magnus effect happen to other sports balls?
60-80 Miles per hour.
What is the average speed needed to make a soccer ball curve?
What team was Roberto Carlos on?
Germany.
Where was Heinrich Magnus from?
Yes. The ball would not be able to curve without air.
Is airflow important to the Magnus Effect?
35 Meters(about 105 feet).
How far away was Roberto from the goal?
The France team.
What team was the Brazil team going against when Roberto Carlos made his impossible goal?
He discovered it while watching a tennis game.
What was Isaac Newton doing when he discovered the Magnus effect?
No, because of friction.
Can a soccer ball move indefinitely? Why or why not?
Clockwise.
Did Roberto make the ball spin clockwise, or counterclockwise?
Yes. In fact, players often attempt the Magnus effect when doing unassisted corner kicks.
