Release Notes<br />
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
Some forces, such as the collision that sends a baseball flying away from a bat, <br />
are easy to observe; other forces, such as the one that gives a rocket its <br />
thrust, are more difficult to perceive. But all objects in motion obey laws, <br />
whether the object is a Ferris wheel, a tsunami in the ocean, or a person <br />
walking down the street. All objects in motion have energy, and storing up <br />
energy and converting it into motion is a common way of getting around. Doing <br />
this without using up all the world's energy or polluting the environment is a <br />
process in which an understanding of physics is essential.<br />
