9781782437574: Why Balloons Rise and Apples Fall: The Laws that Make the World Work

Synopsis



An accessible and entertaining look at the baffling world of physics written specifically for the layperson

 

From the big stuff (life, the universe, and everything) to the small stuff (the mind-bending world of quantum physics), here is an accessible guide to the fascinating, awe-inspiring, and sometimes downright weird world of physics. Learn about why heavier things don’t fall faster, why you have more energy when you’re sitting upstairs, and why time slows down as you speed up, and consider such philosophical questions as whether you can be invisible and what happened to Schrödinger’s poor cat. Previously published as E=MC2: Simple Physics: Why Balloons Rise, Apples Fall & Golf Balls Go Awry.
