Matthew Crowell tries his hand at the “tablecloth” magic trick as part of a recent science lab. Tommy Elick and Quintin Sartori work against one another and then together as they determine which ...

Several years back, I had the pleasure of watching Dan Cobley’s TED Talk, “What physics taught me about marketing.” In this talk, Cobley illustrates how physics and the scientific method can be ...

Engineers have developed a prototype metamaterial that uses electrical signals to control both the direction and intensity of energy waves passing through a solid material. Potential applications of ...

A team of EPFL researchers has developed an AI algorithm that can model complex dynamical processes while taking into account the laws of physics—using Newton's third law. Their research is published ...

If you don't obey Newton's Laws, you won't have a good time. I’m sure you learned Newton’s three laws of motion in high school. I’m also pretty sure that after taking your last physics test, you ...

Segment 3A: Newton’s Laws Overview Newton's three laws of motion. Segment 3A: Newton’s Laws Overview We introduce Newton's three laws of motion as we explore what causes objects to move.

I saw it again. This time it was an introduction to an interesting online look at introductory physics. I was excited---but then, I wasn't so excited. Right there in the first video they talked about ...

A subtle mistranslation of Isaac Newton’s first law of motion that flew under the radar for three centuries is giving new insight into what the pioneering natural philosopher was thinking when he laid ...
