Newton's 3rd Law
This youtube video on Newton's 3rd Law was really helpful for me to gain a better understanding of the concepts and ideas that we covered in class. Newton's 3rd Law states that "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." The visual effects in this video were most helpful to me. Being able to actually see the action and reaction when the tennis ball hit the earth was really helpful. Every time we talk about Newton's 3rd Law, we have to remember that the earth does move when we put our own forces on it, it is just so marginal that we do not notice. Although, in this video, the ground would sink down when the ball hit it and rise up when the ball left it. The slight exaggeration helped me to gain a more confident understanding of Newton's 3rd Law.
This video helped me gain a confident understanding of Newtons 3rd Law. Also, the way you shared how the video helped you - helped me because it made me remember that we also have a force on the earth, it's just too small to notice.
