Forces & Motion - Try dozens of experiments that will
demonstrate Newton's laws of motion. Choose from three levels:
beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Note the chart of what
skills are assessed in each experiment: observing,
communicating, comparing, organizing, experimenting, inferring,
and applying.
Newton's Laws of
Motion - Dynamics is the study of motion and forces, and a
fundamental concept in dynamics is the dynamical system.
Examples of dynamical systems include a satellite in orbit
around the earth and a beating heart. This web site has
excellent diagrams and pictures to help you understand the
importance of dynamics in the study of mechanics in physics.
Notes on Newton - Newton's Laws of Motion are the "backbone"
of dynamics, the study of the causes of motion. This web site
will help you understand Newton's Laws of Motion and help you
apply them to everyday situations. Newton's three laws are
broken down into separate links that are very detailed. There is
also a link to a concept map that is helpful for visual learners
and links to other web sites about the concept of dynamics in
physics.
