Books with title Experiments with Motion

Energy comes in many forms, including sound, heat, electricity, and light, and is perpetually at work all around us. As the inquisitive scientists in this book, readers will come to recognize some key characteristics of energy. Measuring the speed of sound, investigating reflection and refraction, and examining static electricity are a few of the experiments young scientists will undertake, with the help of boxed instructions and bright illustrations. All activities, as well as their underlying principles, are carefully explained. These essential STEM-based activities are a must for any science collection.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Chemistry has never been so fun, and so accessible, as it is in the bright pages of this invaluable volume. While following step-by-step instructions, with the aid of colorful illustrations, readers find themselves in control of their own laboratory, exploring such significant scientific topics as changing states of matter, chemical reactions, and crystal formation. Each experiment, using common materials, highlights a need-to-know concept as well as thoroughly explains what each result means. A vivid design and accessible text make this high-interest book even more inviting to future scientists.
