sketches.

From the photographs I took of the clock(there are alot more but no way in hell am i waiting another 3 hours to upload them all!) I began doing sketches of the images.






Proper starting point....

Upon arriving at the third law of motion I began to get a clearer view of what my project would be based on. Newtons third law simply states for every action there is an equal reaction. It was after much brainstorming I narrowed my focus into pendulums and pendulum motion.
Below I have used paint to demonstrate the rotations of a pendulum

To investigate I got access to an old  pendulum clock and photographed the inside.



                                       


I edited the image in photoshop to show visually the rotations of the pendulum I tried to display with paint earlier.

Starting points?


struggling to work this thing......anyways i may start. Projects motion and movement, I started simply with newtons laws of motion and examining the three laws to understand the concept of movement law one states for any movement to occur, change and stop a force has to act upon it. I drew an example of this. In the picture a mother is pulling along her child, the childs movement is a result of the mother exerting this force. Another example shows a the moment a person pushes something with their finger. This shows newtons first law.
