This book offers the latest thinking on the physics principles and processes behind such everyday activities as ball bouncing, stone skipping, soccer kicks, and spear or javelin throwing, and revisits Newton's Laws of Motion and the power of momentum. It also covers the animal world, discussing the physics of falling cats, bugs that walk on water, and the origins of flight in birds. With twenty selections drawn from leading journals and periodicals, this anthology presents the most recent scholarship and cutting-edge theories concerning the laws of motion and their real-life manifestations in the world around us.
