    Sakib Khan Electric Eels – Physics The animal that is usually known as electric eel is in fact not really an eel but a freshwater species related more to the carp family or catfish family. These unique freshwater predators got their name from the immense electrical charge that they can easily generate to stun or even kill their preys and dissuade predators. Electric eels can grow extremely large which usually can reach as high as 8 foot long and weigh a great amount of 45lbs. In addition to this

    because two objects of different masses do fall at the same rate. “Galileo’s measurements indicated that each body increased speed at the same rate‚ no matter its weight. This book is consisted of a lot of theoretical physics‚ which pretty much means is a lot of theories about physics whether it is right or wrong. Stephen Hawking gives a miniscule overview about how the current information was developed. From the universe‚ elementary particles‚ black holes‚ and the beginnings of the universe also what

    Physics notes Force is an agent which produces or tends to produce motion in an object‚ stops or tends to stop ‚ motion of an object Newton’s 1st law of motion: If an object is at rest‚ will remain at rest until or unless an external force act on it. If an object is in motion ‚ it continues its motion until or unless an external force act on it Newton’s 1st law of motion is also called first law of inertia. Inertia: The tendency of an object to resist any change in its state of motion
