    Experiment 3: Buoyancy Introduction Mass is described as the measure of the amount of matter contained in an object. On the other hand, weight is the measure of the force of gravity acting on the mass. Mass is measured in kilograms, while weight is measured in newtons. The density of an object is found by dividing the mass by the volume. Buoyancy is the upward force of a liquid which counters the weight of an immersed object. The theoretical buoyancy of an object can be calculated by using the…

    Physics has a lot of different concepts to it. Different types of theories and laws. If you really think about it everything has physics. Physics is the nature and knowledge that it encompasses. Everything that has physics, has math. Physics is the language of math. For example, posters tapped against a wall. There are all kinds of forces to that, forces like contact force, Gravity, and normal force. Gravity exist among all objects in the universe. Like in the wall and the posters tapped against…

    Although his discoveries would change the world of science, he did not care the fame that came with them. He was just an intellectual who liked solving challenges. His most important and notable discovery of all, however, was the principles and laws of motion, and his book: "Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica" could be considered the single most valuable publication ever written to science. This is what formed the basis of modern physics and what will be used and referred to…

    are applied to the balloon. These forces include both tension and friction. Since there is no structure opposing the gravitational force once it is pulled to the right, the balloon begins to accelerate downwards. The tension (caused by the forward motion of the train) allows the balloon to move in the direction in which the tension is…

    had developed the theory of gravitation. He had also come up with ideas about the diffraction of light. In 1686, he presented his three laws of motion in the "Principia Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis”, often known as the “Principia”. Scientists say it is the most influential book on physics and, in fact, of all science. Newton’s Three Laws of Motion…
