Throughout this week I have been learning about the motion of objects travelling at various speeds in science class. I have also learnt about (shown by a student in class) what the impact would be if 2 cars collided with each other frontwards travelling at 50 mph. 

A science article that relates to what I have been learning about in class is "How Your brain Tracks Moving Objects" on Live Science. This article relates to what I have been learning about in class due to the fact there is a speed (motion) of a ball travelling at 100 mph that how "brains can predict the path or motion of a moving object." According to the article, when a baseball player hits a home run off a 100 mph fastball the opponents "can track a fast moving object" and the "brain processes visual information and is lastly responsible for calculating where a moving object will most likely end up."
