Isaac Newton is mainly known for his great achievements in science. But Isaac Newton was very involved with the Anglican Church and did support a lot of great things. We won't get to that just yet, let's start from the beginning where it all began. “On January 4, 1643, Isaac Newton was born in the hamlet of Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England (using the "old" Julien calendar, Newton's birth date is sometimes displayed as December 25, 1642)” (A&E Networks Television). Newtons dad passed away three…

evel the force table and put one of the pulley at the angle 35° and another at 150° Place .100 slotted mass on a weight hanger at 35° Place .200 slotted mass on a weight hanger at 150° Place another pulley at different angle from 35° and 150° On the third angle, place the amount of slotted mass so the ring will remain in center of the force. Now the ring is at equilibrium. Record the required slotted mass that made the ring at equilibrium. Record the tensions in each of the strings on the…

A mousetrap car is a car powered by a mousetrap. It utilizes potential energy, kinetic energy, and mechanical energy. Potential energy is a type of energy an object has because of its position. For example, elastic potential energy of a rubber band depends on how far it is pulled back from rest. The farther it is pulled back, the higher its potential energy. Once the rubber band is let go, the potential energy is then converted into kinetic energy, the energy of movement. The held end of the…

Newton was born on January 4, 1643, in Woolsthorpe, England and died in London on March 31, 1727. He made many great scientific discoveries in the categories of optics, motion, and mathematics. With these discoveries, he became known as one of the greatest minds of the 17th century Scientific Revolution. He wrote about these discoveries by publishing a book called Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy. This book became known as the most influential book on physics. Newton’s father was a…

Drum servo relates to drum brakes but more specifically the leading and trailing edges of the shoes. Drum brakes can have effective self-servo characteristics based upon which way the shoes are hinged, this has the effect of increasing stopping power without any additional effort by the driver because the rotation of the drum. The shoes within the drum have a leading edge and a trailing edge and are designed so that the leading edge comes into contact with the drum before the trailing edge. The…

Amusement Park and Newton’s laws Magic mountain amusement park is really great especially their roller coaster rides,but it’s not just how it’s built it’s also because Newton’s laws make it even more amazing.Some of them that I am a fan of are the Green lantern, Apocalypse, as well as their Batman no escape. These rides are great with all the ways they go up down and around,but Newton’s law really make it exciting with motion,and an object at rest because it gives you that unexpected thrill…

Albert einstein Albert Einstein was an immigrant. He was born March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. According to the text, “ He was theoretical physicist for almost his entire life”. His dad was Hermann Einstein his mom was Pauline Einstein and his sister was Maja Einstein. Albert Einstein immigrated to the US on October 17, 1933. He immigrated because the appointment of adolf hitler as a chancellor took affect. Also he faced bad weather. He took…

Our athlete, John, is engaging in the motor task of setting a volleyball over a net. He is not encumbered by non-regulatory environmental constraints since the sun is hidden on this cloudy day and there are no spectators to distract, cheer, or make him nervous. John’s movement must conform to the regulatory environmental constraints regarding the size, shape, and velocity of the ball. He is moving to get into position (a mobility constraint) somewhere on a smooth, yet irregular, sandy surface…

Supercritical fluids are related to superfluids through the concept of Cooper pairs. In a conductive material, such as copper, the flow of electrons move towards the largest positive terminal. The reason why copper is a good conductor is because it is able to lose electrons in its outer shell, and become slightly positive. The combination of the electrons repelling each other, and their attraction towards both the slightly positive copper atoms and positive terminal lead to the electrons…

He was born on January 4, 1643 and died on march 31, 1727. He was a physicist and a mathematician who developed the principles of modern physics, also the laws of motion, and was credited with one of the greatest minds of the 17th century. Newton made discoveries in optics, motion and mathematics. In 1668 he designed and constructed a reflecting telescope. Newton created a theory of gravity, it states that two objects attract each other with a force of gravitational attraction that's…
