Gravity 1101: A Beginner’s Guide

    Gravity–The Force That Shapes Our Universe                                  Just take a moment to think about what gravity is. We all know the boring Newton's apple story, but have we ever thought for ourselves what gravity is? History of Gravity  In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton made the groundbreaking discovery of gravity. While relaxing beneath an apple tree, he observed an apple falling to the ground. This led him to ponder why the apple descended rather than moving upward or sideways. Clearly, there was an unseen force influencing its motion. Newton identified this force as gravity, which he later formulated into what is known as Newton's Law of the Universe. Later in the early 20th century, Albert Einstein developed a completely new concept of gravity, stating that it resulted from the warping of space and time.   What is Gravity?  Gravity is the force that attracts objects to one another. It explains why items fall to the ground when released, why the Earth revolves around

The Force Behind Motion: Newton’s Legacy!

Beginning with the basics of physics is a great way to build a strong foundation.                        Motion and Forces Newton's Laws of Motion                      WHAT IS NEWTONS LAWS OF MOTION? Isaac Newton, renowned as one of history's most influential scientists, introduced three essential laws that clarify the principles of motion.  First Law of Motion: The Law of Inertia A stationary object will remain at rest, and an object in motion will continue moving at a constant speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Example : When a car accelerates quickly, a coffee cup placed on the dashboard may slide backward due to its initial state of rest (inertia). Similarly, if the car brakes suddenly, the cup may slide forward for the same reason. Can you explain this in your own words? Newton’s Second Law of Motion: The Law of Force and Acceleration        The acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force applied to it and inversel
