Newton's laws of motion

to behave like a solid. When the fluid behaves like a solid, your hand will not go through. Whereas, if you place your hand in slowly, it will go through profitably. Slime is classified as a non-Newtonian fluid because it contradicts Isaac Newton’s laws of…

When it comes to designing a helmet, physics plays an important role. Newton’s second law of motion demonstrates the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration, explaining that the force is equal to the mass of an object times the acceleration. If we apply this rule to football, it can be concluded that although the mass (of the football player) is unlikely to be changed, the acceleration can be. The new Zero1 helmet was specifically designed to address the acceleration a player…

A Helmholtz resonator is a rigid container which has an opening to the air surrounding it. A common example of a Helmholtz resonator is a bottle because it has a set volume as well as having an opening which is open to the surrounding air. By considering the Helmholtz resonator as having a neck, such as the neck of a wine bottle, the dynamics of the system may be described. When energy is introduced near the opening of the bottle, for example blowing across it, some of the energy will vibrate…

aside the moral implications of this position for a moment, I would like to focus on the theological problems wrought by this view. The authors paint the picture of a god who “wound up” the universe, putting its laws into place and supplying the matter that could be acted upon by those laws, and then washed his hands and had no other creative input for the rest of history. This concept of god stands in stark contrast to the Creator God of the Bible who is consistently portrayed as being…

Discussion – Tayla Dorrington Introduction There are 2 major theories about the universe and how it began. These are the steady state and The Big Bang theory. Both theories have an explanation on how our Universe is, how it began and how it works. Both theories have stuff in common but also have many differences that could completely change the way we look at the Universe. The Big Bang Theory has much more evidence supporting it, while the Steady State Theory has been proven wrong. Big Bang…

Rockets are more than just a machine. It’s a machine, which can travel a great amount of height, and distance where once the human race thought it was impossible. There are actually many different types of rockets such as, balloon rockets, water rockets, and skyrockets. Every rocket plays the same role, taking you to places whether up into space or under the deep sea. Rockets are fascinating machines that changed history. Rockets have helped us explore and learn about the world we live in. We…

Jet engines are commonly known to be on various aircraft. Whether it be an airplane or a rocket, jet engines are what allow these aircraft to fly through the air at tremendous speeds. In 1926, Frank Whittle had to write a thesis in order to graduate from officer training. Whittle chose his thesis topic to be over the future of aviation. In his paper, he discussed that with the way planes were gaining thrust, which was by propellers, the planes would never be able to fly higher than twenty…

procrastinating, I easily fall into that routine and find myself struggling in school and in life. But as I’ve learned through experience, once I find myself in a productive routine, I tend to stay in a productive routine. Newton’s first Law of Motion states, “A body in motion tends to stay in motion and a body at rest tends to stay at rest” (Isaac Newton). I feel this statement resonates with my…

This idea is most commonly reflected in Isaac Newton’s Third Law of physics stating, “every action has an equal and opposite reaction.” This attributing the cause of the reaction to the action. This coupled with Newton’s First Law that states that, “an object in motion stays in motion while an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force” provides the basis of causality in physics. As it is…

The necessary conditions can be created by being whirled in a giant centrifuge at near light speeds as it is simply the motion that is required the distance is irrelevant. However Tollaksen said that it would kill anyone who tried it. The body's anatomy is certainly a major hinderance for us to be able to time travel; the force experienced in a giant centrifuge pushes down…
