Motion – Assignment 02

view profile

noahg. says:




M O T I O N In physics, motion means a continuous change in the position of a body relative to a reference point, as measured by a particular observer in a particular frame of reference. Until the end of the 19th century, Newton's laws of motion, which he posited as axioms or postulates in his famous Principia, were the basis of what has since become known as classical physics. Calculations of trajectories and forces of bodies in motion based on Newtonian or classical physics were very successful until physicists began to be able to measure and observe very fast physical phenomena.

Quick Rules

`Photos do not have to have been invited and in the AK pool.

Noah, I have a question. Often, assignment photos must be taken on or after the day the competition begins. Is this the case for this assignment?

Thanks!

noahg. says:

For this Assignment, the photos do not have to have been photographed after the this contest was posted. Although you do not have to, we encourage the members to go out and take some motion shots as this is an 'assignment.' But if you have a good one from your archives, feel free to enter it!

Thanks for asking,
