Learn how to analyze motion graphs in physics, including position-time and velocity-time graphs. This video explains slopes, areas, and motion behavior to help you clearly interpret real physics ...
You’re probably familiar with the old joke about a physicist who, when asked to use science to help a dairy farmer, begins by approximating a spherical cow in a vacuum. But maybe it’s time to ...
For most of us, the word graph brings back memories (not always pleasant) of pencils and rulers and quadrille ruled paper, though a more recent generation may think instead of pie and bar charts ...
Zero-point motion capture: Ultrashort, high-intensity X-ray laser pulses trigger controlled explosions of molecules, making it possible to capture high-resolution images of molecular structures.
This article was originally featured on Knowable Magazine. Isaac Newton would never have discovered the laws of motion had he studied only cats. Suppose you hold a cat, stomach up, and drop it from a ...
