Newton’s Laws of Motion: a 3D holographic book

An interactive physics book on Newton’s three laws of motion for students of about 14–16 (GCSE, IGCSE, CBSE Class 9). Seven spreads, each projecting one simulated experiment as a hologram above its pages: forces and resultants in a tug of war, inertia with a tablecloth pulled from under the dishes and a braking bus, friction with pucks on ice and carpet, force, mass and acceleration with a trolley and its speed–time graph, action and reaction with a boat, a balloon rocket and a jump, momentum in a crash test with crumple zones and airbags, and Newton’s cradle. A marble bust of Newton performs each experiment once with a joke that carries a real fact, then hands it over so students can run it themselves. Teachers’ notes, a projector mode and every source are included.

Newton’s Laws of Motion

Newton’s three laws as a 3D holographic book: every joke carries a real fact and every law is a hands-on experiment students run themselves.
