Notes
This book describes weight, gravity, friction and upthrust and how these forces combine to make ships float and planes fly. Discover, too , the revolutionary thinkers from Archimedes to Newton who have helps use make sense of forces.Contents
Contents : why link force and movement; how are force measured; are mass and weight the same; what is upthrust; why do objects float or sink; what is gravity; gravity in space; balanced forces; the forces of friction; what is air resistance; speed and acceleration; how fast do things fall; are objects lazy; the forces of flight; timeline; glossary; index;Additional Info
In this series key scientific concepts are explained through observations and experiments, while history panels explore how scientists in the past have established what we know today.
