specifically physics plays a very important role in the mousetrap car’s performance. It plays a more important role than one might think. Newton’s First, Second, and Third Laws of Motion all play a key role in making mousetraps perform their best. First of all, Newton’s First Law applies to mousetrap cars because it states that in object in motion will stay in motion, and an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted by an unbalanced force. This applies to mousetrap cars because when a car
INTRODUCTION: Space, Time and motion were three interrelated concepts which have been very difficult by the philosophers to arrive at a proper understanding since the ancient times. By there has been consensus that a proper understanding of motion would lend a hand in addressing the questions on the nature of the other two concepts namely space and time. Depending on the nature of approach to the problem of space and time, the philosophers mainly addressed three key concerns. They are as follows:
of our lives. Sir Isaac Newton, an English man, man of science, is wide thought to be one among the best scientists of all time. Newton’s contribution to science is wide and incomparable. He explained the laws of motion which are still being followed in faculties and schools because the basis of scientific understanding. He discovered gravity from the easy act of apple falling from the tree. He designed the primary telescope, the first telescope ever. He developed empirical law of cooling and studied
known to the science fields during the 17th century. Hooke was an English scientist, English physicist, natural philosopher, inventor and architect. Hooke played an important role as a scientist during the 17th century because he had the discovered his law of elasticity. Based on all his occupations, he never really focused on one specific field of science; rather many. But out of all of his many studies, he mainly focused on the following topics; physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, geology, architecture
