In this video, we explore five key areas of physics: **Classical Mechanics:** Newton’s second law (F = ma) explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The law of universal ...
In 1997, Brazilian soccer player Roberto Carlos scored on a free kick that first went right, then curved sharply to leftwards in what looked like a physics-defying fluke. We’ve finally discovered the ...
Equations are the bedrock of science, expressing how numbers or physical properties relate at a fundamental level. Without equations, most of our technology would never have been invented. We may have ...
The accelerating expansion of the universe is usually explained by an invisible force known as dark energy. But a new study suggests this mysterious ingredient may not be necessary after all. Using an ...
In this video, we derive the catenary curve using physics and calculus, explaining how a hanging cable reaches equilibrium under gravity. Step-by-step reasoning connects forces, differential equations ...
Quantum mechanics is concerned with the behavior of the tiniest of particles, and usually the mathematics behind it is relegated to this tiny realm. Now, a researcher from the California Institute of ...
One of the greatest mysteries in physics could be solved by a mattress-like axion field that permeates space and time. Three physicists who have been collaborating in the San Francisco Bay Area over ...
Quantum physics didn’t set out to explain the mind. It set out to explain matter. And yet, the deeper scientists went into ...
