[03] Newton's Laws ProjectNewton's Laws AssignmentNewton’s Laws of Motion are a fundamental part of Physics. His laws of motion explain rest, constant motion, accelerated motion, and describe how balanced and unbalanced forces act to cause these states of motion. You will all the parts (A,B,C) below to demonstrate your understanding and application of Newton’s Laws.Newton’s Law Project (PART A)“Where can you find Newton’s Laws? “This project allows you find it in magazines and real life.For this option, you will make a book of explaining TWO of Newton’s three laws using, at the smallest, 8.5 by 11 inch paper (notebook size) which you will fold in half to make a “book”. The theme will be “Where can your Find Newton’s Three Laws.” You will be required to take pictures of EACH page and upload these images to the submission area) Note: Be sure all images are clear and easy to read. Images should be loaded so they are UPRIGHT. (there will be notes below on different ways to take pictures or scan and upload).Procedure:1. First, you will need to state each law as it is written in your textbook or other source. In you are using a source other than your textbook you must include a reference (in APA format) for source. Please be sure you are using CREDIBLE sources.2. Find at least two pictures that illustrate each law. Pictures can be from magazines, real photographs, and newspapers, and must be printed and cut out if from the internet. The pictures from the internet must be photographs not diagrams or illustrations and cannot already be labeled with forces. The pictures must be in color. Your name and student number must be included below each image.3. Write a paragraph describing how each of the pictures you choose illustrates the law (if you have 4 pictures you will have 4 paragraphs). The paragraphs must be at least 5 CONTENT related sentences. Please make sure your references are school appropriate.4. Provide TWO math based “you solve it” questions with answers for EACH of the laws you selected. Please be sure to explain in detail how to solve the problems (on each part).When you have completed your book, take CLEAR, UPRIGHT images of EACH page and load to the submission area. Another option would be to scan the pages and save as a PDF and load the PDF file.NOTE: Please submit ONE file. If you did not type on your exam, you can scan your document, take pictures and paste the images in a word document. Submissions with more than one file will be returned with a note asking your to create a single file to submit.______________________________________________________________________________Newton’s Laws Project (PART B)Your task is to make a PowerPoint presentation explaining TWO of Newton’s three laws using Microsoft PowerPoint or an equivalent computer program.Procedure:1. First, you will need to state each law as it is written in your textbook or other source. In you are using a source other than your textbook you must include a reference (in APA format) for source. Please be sure you are using CREDIBLE sources. 2. Then find at least two pictures or video segments that illustrate each law and copy them to a PowerPoint slide; one picture per slide. Pictures or video segments can be from any internet source or digital media that is school appropriate. The pictures must be photographs not diagrams or illustrations and cannot already be labeled with forces. The pictures must be in color. Beware of using video segments or links, some of them may not work on school computers, therefore you may want to try them on school grounds before placing them in your project. If I cannot access them from school your grade will reflect so.3. Write a paragraph describing how each picture you chose illustrates the law. The paragraphs must be at least 5 sentences and be on the same slide as the picture. Please make sure your references are school appropriate.4.

First, you will need to state each law as it is written in your textbook or other source and explain what the law means in your own words. You will include an APA reference page with your references listed.2. Find or draw at least two pictures that illustrate each law.
