Can someone using knowledge of physics graduate and open source tools to predict the future?
Can mathematics and computer science to illuminate the magical ability of man
to calculate the final position of an object with data baseline and forces it receives from the environment?
The second law of Newton and three open source software answer yes.
According to Newton's second law if we know the history of a cell, ie the initial position and velocity,
we can predict the future, ie the final position and velocity at time Δt.
The experiment will watch out in the laboratory of the 28 High School of Thessaloniki
and was recorded with a simple cell phone camera.
In this presentation Newton 2nd Law meet the follow open source software.
