One of my favorite units in gym is badminton. To play badminton you need some physics involved. You need to produce a lot of power to be good at the sport. Power is the rate of doing work. The equation to find power is P = work/time. Work done is force X displacement. To find the displacement you can measure how far the birdie went. To find time you can have a friend keep a stop watch and time from the moment you hit the birdie until the moment it hits the ground. That is just some of the tons of physics in badminton
