The book focuses on mechanics: kinematics, energy, momentum, energy, rotation, and related topics. It is a supplement book for either high school students learning physics and calculus concurrently, or college engineering or science students in an introductory physics course focusing on mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe authors include many experiments using maker-level materials like BBC micro: bit processors and 3D prints. These allow playing with concepts that are hard to learn from passive listening. Models and projects are designed to be hands-on, affordable, and friendly for homeschoolers, informal or enrichment education settings, and those teaching themselves these concepts. This book builds on the authors' book \u003ci\u003eMake: Calculus\u003c\/i\u003e, adding additional topics needed to support physics concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joan Horvath,Rich Cameron\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Make Community, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/21\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.50w x 0.91d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781680458800\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorvath, Joan:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Joan Horvath is the co-founder of Nonscriptum, a consulting and training firm that teaches educators and scientists how to use maker tech.
