uniformly forward in a straight line. The term inertia derives from the Latin work “iner” which translates to “idle”. It was Isaac Newton who was the first person to define inertia. This was then presented as his first law of motion. Although Galileo formally introduced the concept of inertia. And as everyone knows Newton’s inspiration came from an apple that had fallen. He asked questions like why did it fall? What determined the speed at which it fell? The reason why the apple fell was because

Christopher Columbus: The Original American Hero? Was Columbus a hero or a villain? Maybe it’s neither. Columbus was brave and daring, and did things that were important to world history. But he wasn’t heroic in the sense of displaying great moral qualities. Courage, while generally a good character trait, isn’t necessarily heroic or even highly honorable and praiseworthy unless it’s deployed in certain kinds of actions or causes. But he also wasn’t especially villainous in the sense of displaying

The photo is of a 44.5 Newton (10 pounds) weight being lifted using the biceps brachii mucle of the arm. It is taken in the Rudolf Fitness Center at Gonzaga University. Many physics concepts come together in the simple motion of lifting a weight, even if its relatively lightweight. Each muscle in the arm must work individually in order to collectively achieve a motion. I will explain the torque produced by each muscle and how that contributes to the force and velocity needed to lift something. This

MyTeaching Philosophy ‘You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him to find it for himself’ by Galileo Galilei My classroom will be child-centred and focus on their needs to empower them to be responsible for their learning. The fundamental basis of my teaching philosophy is the belief that it is more important to teach students how to think than what to think. As Rait (2009), states how Paulo Freire’s concept of liberation for freedom links to community education, and that there
