Understanding motion is a key concept in the field of physics. Readers will learn about forces such as inertia and friction as they complete the exciting experiments in this book. The discoveries of scientists such as Isaac Newton and Leonardo da Vinci are highlighted to illustrate how our understanding of motion has changed over time.

"Rev it up with projects that teach locomotion science basics--and then build on them. Learn about movement, speed up, and then think creatively to take the projects to the next level. Bonus video tutorials and other content available on the free Capstone 4D app gives students an augmented reality experience that goes beyond the printed page"--

A future engineer may gaze up at an airplane soaring high above and wonder about the forces that keep it in flight. This enticing title will not only help young readers understand these forces, but also experience them firsthand in a safe setting! It begins by breaking down Newton's laws of motion. Then students learn to take on the mindset of a scientist for their experiments with an explanation of the scientific method. Engaging illustrations and...
