What is friction? What is the coriolis force? Young scientists will explore the physics of forces and motion with the great experiments in this book. Full-color illustrations highlight key points to make science a snap. Many experiments are followed by ideas for science fair projects. Help students ace their next physics project or test.
"Explains how to use the scientific method to conduct several physics experiments with forces and motion. Includes ideas for science fair projects"--Provided by publisher.
How can sports be scientific? Author Madeline Goodstein explains in SPORTS SCIENCE PROJECTS: THE PHYSICS OF BALLS IN MOTION. Baseballs, golf balls, and footballs are just some of the balls compared and examined. Why do baseballs have stitches? Why does a tennis ball have fuzz? How is a Ping-Pong ball changed if you fill its center? By experimenting with the projects, students will find out how much science governs the games they play. They will also discover they have been following the rules of science all along! This book is filled with excellent ideas for science fair projects.
