Description

Instructions

In a two-page paper, identify the classical physics principles contained within the following scenario. Explain how these principals connect to work done by Galileo or Newton. Finally, consider the different fields in which Galileo and Newton did research, and give an example of one of these fields in use in your life. For instance, Newton developed the field of optics. If you wear glasses or contact lenses, you are using Newton's physical optics theories every day. Aside from glasses or contacts, how do the theories of Newton or Galileo affect you in your daily life?

Scenario

Mandy took a trip to Rome, Italy. She gazed out over the open ocean 20,000 feet below as her airplane began its descent to her final destination. She could watch the Sun setting in the west. Over the Eastern horizon peeked a full moon, just rising, displaying its cratered face. As the plane neared the ground, Mandy could not help but think that she was in a giant metal object hurtling through the sky. Without the specific shape of its wings, the plane would fall to the ground no differently than a large metal projectile.

The world of physics is one which owes a lot of its pillars to discoveries made by some of
the greatest of scientists that ever walked on this planet. One of the greatest of scientists and in
this case physicist was Isaac Newton and whose discoveries have been mentioned as one of the
most fascinating. This paper will help put one of these discoveries into perspective with the help
of a case example.
When Mendy is traveling, and her attention is caught by the fact that the view of the sun
seems to be altering and in a fascinating manner, one would ask themselves which scientists are
associated with this kind of phenomena in physics. In this case,...
