The principle of inertia is a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force. We are ...

Newton’s First Law of Motion, also known as the Law of Inertia, says an object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion in the same direction and with the same speed ...

GRAND RAPIDS — An egg drop challenge... a bit of a daring science trick we will see if we can complete! This experiment will teach us all about inertia. Here’s what you need to get started. Step 2 – ...

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- You may have heard the scientific expression "An object at rest stays at rest." This is the first part of Newton's first law of motion. The whole expression states that an object ...

Beth Harris, a Raleigh mom, long-time science educator and creator of Fort Kits for Kids, returns with another easy experiment that we can do at home with the kids. This one teaches a lesson on ...

1) Fill your glass about 2/3 full of water. 2) Place the lightweight pan on top of the glass of water making sure that it is centered. 3) Stand the tube (plastic or toilet paper tube) upright in the ...

Background: According to standard physics we cannot travel to the stars in a human lifetime because we need impractical amounts of fuel to get close to light speed. However, a new theory of inertia ...

Dark matter is claimed to make up over 80% of all matter in the universe, but scientists have never seen it. We only assume it exists because, without it, the behavior of stars, planets and galaxies ...
