CHAPTER 2: GRAVITATIONAL FORCE
Then Maya and Sidhu started eating the
momos. Maya told to her grandfather that the chicken pieces are nicely steamed.
Finally they completed eating the momos. Raman observed happiness in their
faces. Now they started watching TV but within a few minutes they were bored.
They asked Raman to narrate them another story. Even though he refused in the
beginning later he accepted and started narrating the story with “Once upon a
time” and continued “In a beautiful garden in England, there was a curious
young man named Isaac Newton. One sunny day, while Isaac was sitting under an
apple tree, deep in thought, something surprising happened. A ripe apple fell
from the tree and landed with a soft thud on the ground right next to him.
Isaac looked at the apple and wondered,
“Why did the apple come straight down, and not go sideways or upwards?” He
thought and thought, and then he had a brilliant idea! “There must be a force
that pulls everything down towards the Earth!” he exclaimed.
This force, he later called gravity, and
it’s the reason why things fall down and not up. Isaac Newton grew up to become
one of the most famous scientists in the world because he always asked
questions and looked for answers in nature.
And that’s how an apple helped Isaac
Newton discover gravity, which keeps us all on the ground and not floating up
into space!”
Remember kids; always be curious like
Newton, and who knows what you might discover!
Now they heard a calling bell sound.
Raman went and saw who it is, and it was Sidhu and Maya’s Parents. They bought
many story books for Sidhu and Maya.
