I am looking for information/websites about Physics used in movies?

http://www.cs.ucla.edu/~pfal/publicity/usatoday-02-21-2002.html\n\nis a very good article called "Physics brings dose of reality to 'virtual' film stunts"\n\n"The key is using mathematical formulas that only loosely choreograph the movements an animator wants a character to undertake.\n\nCommand, say, a character's arm to move and the momentum will force its torso and head to shift as well.\n\nThe range of motions available to a character ultimately guide how it behaves, as does its own computer-generated sensitivity to both gravity and any forces imparted by its virtual surroundings.\n\nDifferent environments, for example, will prompt the same character to move differently — and unpredictably. A fall on slick ice won't be the same as one down a steep flight of stairs.\n\nIn movies, physics-based animation techniques have been used to render inanimate things like the waves in The Perfect Storm or the shock of blue hair that coats James P. Sullivan in Monsters Inc.\n\nIn video games, they crop up in programming that simulates such actions as racing or flying competitions.\n\nWith animated characters, attaining of realism is far more difficult, however. Emotion can influence movement as much as gravity does."

You can go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page to look up different scientific theories like theory of relativity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_relativity or Newton's Laws on Motion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%27s_laws_of_motion\n\nGood Luck!!!

I had to write a report on the physics of roller coasters in HS...I don't have any specific websites for you but honestly, search on Google "the physics of rollercoasters" or "physics, rollercoasters" and you should find a lot of infor

you can find out a lot about celebrities and movies on www.imdb.com it is dedicated to all things movie related.  Personally, i think it is the best website out there.

websites aren't that trustworthy for accurate scientific advice. I'd recommend finding someone to ask in person... Wilkipedia is good for some basic things, but anything beyond Physics 101 is a crap shoot.  \n\ngood luck
