Explains the physics of gravity and gravitational pull, offering information on the contributions made in this area by Copernicus, Galileo, and Newton.

Larry Green and Professor John Taylor with some dramatic demonstrations in physics. Series of clips from news broadcast.

Author, Paul Fleisher answers questions and explains the laws that define how and why liquids and gases behave the way they do.

If not for her loving but controlling parents, Beth Prudhomme might never have taken charge of her life and moved from her native Chicago to Portland, Oregon, where she has reconnected with her spirited Aunt Sunshine and found a job as a high school music teacher. If not for her friend Nichole Nyquist, Beth would never have met Sam Carney, although first impressions have left Beth with serious doubts. Sam is everything Beth is not -- and her conservative...

Proper structural design of pavement systems requires knowing the resilient modulus of the soil as this parameter is a proven predictor of the stress-dependent elastic modulus of soil materials under traffic loading. In addition, the R-value test is conducted using a device called a stabilometer, where the material's resistance to deformation is expressed as a function of the ratio of the transmitted lateral pressure to that of the applied vertical...
