The steeple of the town centre looks much like Van Gogh’s later Starry Night. The artist still does retain aspects of classical landscapes in his use of light and shadow to form the waves. The precarious blending of the natural aspects is very different to traditional techniques. Monet challenges the artists of the past with his innocuous

Preliminary HSC Physics Research Task Part 1 - Inertia Inertia is what keeps an object in its rest state or moving at constant velocity. In other words‚ it is the tendency for objects to resist a change in their motion. The only thing inertia depends on is the mass of the object‚ so heavier objects have more inertia and it is harder to change its motion. When you accelerate quickly‚ you get pushed back against the seat. Because of inertia‚ your body keeps traveling at the same velocity as before
