motion

An introduction to forces that discusses pushes, pulls, motion, direction, speed, and friction, and provides everyday examples and instructions for an activity.

Describes motion, including what makes objects move and some of the different ways they move.

Presenting experiments in a step-by-step format, this book helps young scientists discover the principles of force and motion.

Explores the principles of force and motion, describing how they have been applied from ancient to modern times.

Introduces the concept of moving objects in different ways, including pushing and pulling.

Experiments teaching readers about forces and motion.

"What exactly is motion? Learn about the concept of motion and how it plays a part in your everyday life. Find out what is fast, what is slow, and how gravity fits in"--Back cover.

Explores the various forms of motion used at an amusement park, including inertia, equal and opposite reaction, the force of motion, and more.

"Build a model hovercraft like engineer Christopher Cockerell did, or a sculpture that moves in the breeze like artist Lin Emery. This title gives readers both an understanding of the properties of forces and the skills to investigate . . . discoveries and works"--Provided by publisher.

"Explore this ... timeline history of physical science! What are matter, motion, gravity, electricity, magnetism, and substances? Who first studied these concepts? And who later built on and expanded the work of those early thinkers?"--Provided by publisher.
