Describes the main branches of physics and sub-divisions within each. Each section includes significant discoveries and recommended reference books.

In the following interactive students will begin to discuss the inertial frame of reference and the non-inertial frame of reference. They will also describe the effects of the Coriolis force.

By the end of this section, you will be able to define mass and inertia and to understand Newton's First Law of Motion: There exists an inertial frame of reference such that a body at rest remains at rest, or, if in motion, remains in...
