    returned to school and attended Cambridge College. Newton’s major discoveries came in the fields of mechanics‚ mathematics‚gravity and optics. He came up with the laws of motion that explain how things move and how force affects them. His law of inertia states that an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. Also‚ he stated that what goes up‚ must come down. He described force as the rate of change of an objects linear momentum with its time. Then he concluded that

    Roller Coaster For many people‚ there is only one reason to go to an amusement park: the roller coaster. Some people call it the "scream machine‚" with good reason. The history of this ride reflects a constant search for greater and more death-defying thrills. How does a roller coaster work? What you may not realize as you’re cruising down the track at 60 miles an hour is that the coaster has no engine. The car is pulled to the top of the first hill at the beginning of the ride‚ but after

    The potential dangers of loose objects in vehicles are strongly associated with Newton’s First Law of Motion‚ inertia. Inertia is when an object in motion tries to stay in motion‚ and an object at rest tries to remain at rest‚ unless the object is acted upon by an outside force. For example‚ say a car is traveling along a straight road. Loose objects in the auto are "acted upon" by the body‚ seats‚ or some other part of the vehicle (whatever is touching a loose object)‚ whenever the whole thing

    SIR ISAAC NEWTON; ORAL REPORT. I just planned on saying something like ‘Our report is on Sir Isaac Newton’. In 1643 he was born to a man who didn’t want him so his mother was supposed to take care of him but‚ she wanted to raise a second family with a new husband so she took him to live with his grandparents. He lived there until 1653 when his mother returned. By then he was ten years of age and had already been denied plenty of attention from his mother possibly explaining his complex character

    Air is a physical substance which has weight. It has molecules which are constantly moving. Air pressure is created by the molecules moving around. Moving air has a force that will lift kites and balloons up and down. Air is a mixture of different gases; oxygen‚ carbon dioxide and nitrogen. All things that fly need air. Air has power to push and pull on the birds‚ balloons‚ kites and planes. In 1640‚ Evangelista Torricelli discovered that air has weight. When experimenting with measuring mercury
