PHYSICS WORKBOOK  :PHYSICS MADE EASY, REALLY EASY !!
gravity is a law. All lawbreakers must be brought down.
under construction. PLease be patient.
Dr. Veronique Lankar, PhDemail  ,  RESUME  
my other websites :   algebra4u.com     haplosciences.com


Meet Emilie du Chatelet (see chapter on Energy).
Young French aristocrat from early 18th century.
Her translation  of Principia (Newton) is still the one  used today.
She was the friend and lover of the provocative Philosopher  Voltaire
She dared contradict Newton and showed, as suggested by Leibniz, that KE depends on the speed squared. 
She died at 43. (giving birth)
