The World of Motion
2000
This site is designed to teach the physics principles that govern motion on Earth. Basic, but important information, like units used in physics and scientific notation, is taught in the first chapter. The rest of the site and chapters deal with topics such as velocity, acceleration, Newton's three laws, gravity and friction. Each chapter contains interactive questions to test what the reader has just read. At the end is a unit "test" that covers all the topics of the site. And, finally there is an experiments section which allows readers to see the concepts in action.
