If you are at all interested in calculus or physics, you need to get to know Isaac Newton. The man was a pure genius. He created calculus just so he could do physics! Brilliant!
"Nature and nature's laws lay hid in night;
God said "Let Newton be" and all was light."
- Alexander Pope

Calculus 101: the website
I stumbled opon a great website today (while I was studying for a calculus final, actually). It is called Calc101.com. It is a great resource for beginning calculus students. It will differentiate and itegrate most functions for you. The site also has "graphs, matrices, determinants,
systems of linear equations, equations of lines" capabilities.
The site has been added to my links.

How to Calculate Center of Gravity
wikiHow, a website geared toward giving step by step instructions, had an article on calculating the center of gravity posted on December 6th. The article is easy to follow and, most importantly, it is accurate.

You may know "center of gravity" as "center of mass." For the most part, these are the same thing.
