To anyone who is actually reading this blog, aloha. I am not sure if today begins the start of new blog posts for the class but I would rather not risk losing points for a late entry again. The new unit of the quarter involves a different notion of movement. In this instance, the focus is on forces that can influence motion. In order to demonstrate this common phenomenon, I took a picture of this calculator. The blurriness of this picture is due to the fact that I pushed it across the table. According to Newton's first law, an object that is in a state of rest will remain unmoved unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. The calculator only moved because my hand exerted force on it. Once I no longer had it in my grasp, it returned to its initial state.
