- Tension describes the pulling force by each end of a string, cable line, rope of any sort. In physics it relates to if something is being moved with ropes and pulleys how the tension of the rope will change. according to physics if something is changed or moved in different ways if useing ropes it will change the tension on the rope. when tension happen vectors come in to play too also effect how the rope is being moved. in the top is an exsample of a freebody diagram.
- Tension relates to hockey by.... When a player or goalie shoots the puck or passes the puck, there are fiber glass in the stick that keeps it from breaking by fiber glass is stretched too much the stick breaks. a free body diagram for hockey would just be the force of gravity.
- At the top of the page is an example of an vector and what they look like.
