Fernie and Physics!

 While in Fernie, there were many rules of physics that we encountered on the mountain. One would be the velocity going down a run. The velocity gained while going down the hill depended on the slope of the hill, the friction between the snowboard and the snow, and the turns that are made going down the hill. Friction played a major roll because on days when the snow was slushie my board stuck a whole lot more and on days when the snow was more like powder, my board would barely stick at all.
