Question: Why do we still study Newtonian mechanic instead on Eistein's one
Answer: Because Newtonian mechanic is still successful for slow speed (compared to light) and huge object (compared to atoms)

Name: Linear air track
Definition: hollow triangular beam, perhaps 2 m long, pierced by many small holes that emit gentle streams of air from a blower. A rider rests on the beam. When the blower is turned on, the rider floats on a thin cushion of air. The friction effects of air are extremely small, typically 5000 times less than for a film of oil, so that friction is negligible compared to the much larger forces we might be applying
