Rotational (Spinny) & Translational (Straight-ey) Motion & Swords
There are two different ways that things move: translationally and rotationally. If the big words scare you, think ‘straight’ and ‘spinny’.
Physics
Force vs Pressure
Does “It only takes 4 ounces of pressure for a sword thrust to pierce the body” make sense to you? Because from a physics standpoint it’s nonsense!
Center of Percussion? Vibration Node? Balance Point? What does it all mean?
Learn a little more about some of the physical properties of swords, and why you are probably using terms like ‘Center of Percussion’ incorrectly.
