The Mechanics of Everyday Life

Every action we take is governed by the laws of physics: from the moment we wake up, when the lever comes into play, to the moment we fall asleep, when gravity takes its toll.
The phenomena of classical mechanics can be observed with the naked eye or experienced with our other senses every day and at any point on the planet. It's enough to swing on a swing to feel the law of conservation of energy at work. The principle of operation of a fork is best illustrated by winding spaghetti around it. And without knowledge of Newton's third law, it's better not to venture out during a sale!
We will get acquainted with great thinkers and their discoveries: from Aristotle to Einstein, with whom we will transcend the boundaries of classical mechanics and take a peek into the realm where we can slow down the last five minutes before the alarm clock rings.
