Story Behind The Bicycle

The running man, hobby horse and velocipede were all names associated with what we know today as the bicycle. The story behind the bicycle has an amazing and catastrophic beginning. It begins in Indonesia in 1815, where an obscure volcano named Mount Tambora erupts dispersing a blast of gas, dust and rocks into the atmosphere. An abundance of ash poured down the mountains flanks and burned grassland and forests. Unwittingly, this explosion contributed to the crop failure in North America and epidemics in Europe. Scientists believe that Tambora was somewhat responsible for the random cold climate that affected most of the Northern Hemisphere in 1816, known as "The Year Without The Summer". In Northeastern United States the weather in mid-may

Newton 's second law explains, acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass of the object being accelerated, the greater the amount of force needed to accelerate the object. This force is applied to the bicycle when you are utilizing the pedals. The more force you apply to the pedals the more you accelerate. The more mass you attach to the bicycle, your own weight and carried goods, the more force it will take to accelerate. Newton 's third law of motion is for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. As your bicycle wheels spin clockwise, the part of the tire touching the ground pushes in the opposite direction towards the earth(action). In return, the ground pushes forward with the same amount of force against each of the tires(reaction). As the action and reaction pair together the bike accelerates in a constant motion. But how can these laws successfully pertain to this device? Did Sir Isaac Newton know about the mechanics of this device as well as others? Everyone has a riddles about how Sir Isaac Newton constructed these accurate and useful experimental laws. In 1686, Sir Isaac Newton presented three laws of motion in the "Principia Mathematica Philosophiae
