"Fun Physics for Tomorrow's Rocket Scientists" - Book

Learn about physics with fun projects and experiments Created in partnership with Thames & Kosmos, Fun Physics Projects for Tomorrow's Rocket Scientists introduces you to essential physics concepts through do-it-yourself projects that you can then use to perform experiments. Experience the thrill of scientific discovery when you observe the physics of motion, including constant speed, acceleration, and free fall, through your own experiments. All of the projects use inexpensive, readily available materials and software. No experience required! Chapters feature: Things You'll Need--lists of all the components and equipment required for each project  Be Careful--important safety tips  Famous Scientists--introductions to people who've made significant contributions to our understanding of physics  Online Videos--link to the author's demonstrations of the projects Step-by-step projects include: Constant-speed vehicle  Uniform acceleration fan car  Tennis ball cannon to investiga
