The Newton's Law of Cooling model computes the temperature of an object of mass M as it is heated by a flame and cooled by the surrounding medium. The model assumes that the temperature T within the object is uniform. This lumped system approximation is valid if the rate of thermal energy...

In Newton's Law, players drop black holes and disturb the path of a traveling planetoid, with the goal of pulling it into a stable orbit. Moving the black hole (or 'teleporting') allows you to fine tune the orbit from a wide ellipse to a perfectly circular orbit. Four games in one, each with...
