Post #12


Today we expanded more on Newton's three laws of motion.  I decided to take a picture of me standing on the ground.  The third law states that for every force there is an equal and opposite force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.  I think it's cool because not only am I exerting force on the ground it is exerting the same amount of force back up to me.  Something I also thought was super cool was the scale experiment.  Weight always stays the same but the thing that changes in your normal force which is perpendicular to the surface.  I found it super cool how weight was only accurate when the scale was on a flat hard surface. We don't usually think about it but physics occur all around in our daily lives.
