Learn centripetal force, why “centrifugal force” is your own inertia, and the law of universal gravitation.https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/forces/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/forces/Tilt a ramp until a block slips, ride an elevator on a bathroom scale, race two weights over a pulley and draw your own free-body diagrams. Learn gravity, the normal force, friction and tension, and how to add forces to solve any problem.https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/momentum/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/momentum/Crash gliders on an air track, drop an egg on a pillow and a floor, and split billiard balls at right angles. Learn momentum, why it is always conserved in a collision, where the kinetic energy goes, and how airbags and crumple zones save lives.https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/first-law/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/first-law/Roll a ball between Galileo’s two ramps, coast a probe through deep space, and pull a tablecloth from under the dishes. Learn why moving things keep moving, what inertia and mass are, and why friction fooled people for two thousand years.https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/second-law/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/second-law/Push a cart with a force probe and watch live graphs of its motion, drop a hammer and a feather on the Moon, and fall with a skydiver to terminal speed. Learn F = ma, the newton, weight, and how to read motion graphs.https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/third-law/Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000https://teddyrookbook.com/science-lab/newtons-laws/third-law/Push two skaters apart, solve the horse-and-cart puzzle with free-body diagrams, and hook two spring scales together. Learn why forces always come in equal and opposite pairs, and how that lets you walk, swim and fly.
