Chapter Two: Motion

Can you shoot a basketball? I can't, but I can shoot pool. Can you catch a baseball? I can't, but my dog can catch literally anything that will fit in her mouth (it's a big mouth).

Can you ride a bike or drive a car?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you already have some baked-in ideas about motion and how objects move. You've probably also got some preconceived notions that feel pretty intuitive, but which aren't quite correct. Let's fix that.
