Instructions
In this unit you are learning about the concepts related to objects in motion. It’s important to not only understand these fundamental concepts but apply them.
Use the Internet or ECPI Online Library to find at least ONE professional or scholarly source that discusses how one of the following is applied or observed in the real world:
· Force and acceleration
· Newton's Third Law of Motion
· Momentum
These topics are in operation nearly every time an object moves, so finding a real-world application where they are relevant should not be too difficult. You may even be able to find research related to your field of study.
Be prepared to include the following:
· Provide a brief summary of your research.
· Explain how the research illustrates the concept(s) you are discussing.
· Discuss any ethical or practical considerations that might arise from this application of the concept. These might include (but are not limited to) environmental impact, safety concerns, or issues of effectiveness.
· Be sure to share your source(s), including the URL. You must include a source page with proper APA citations.
HINT for finding information: When performing a search, input the words "Technology using" or "Applications of" _________ (type in the concept) in the search box of a search engine). Some possible sources to search:
· Phys.org
· Gizmag.com
· Cnet.com
· Sciencenews.org
· Sciencemag.org
For applications of concepts related to bodies in motion, you may even find related articles in more mainstream media focused on athletics or law enforcement.
