Machine learning is becoming an essential part of a physicist’s toolkit. How should new students learn to use it? When Radha Mastandrea started her undergraduate physics program at MIT in 2015, she ...

Explore the fundamentals of motion with Exploring the Basics of Static and Kinetic Friction Forces in Physics. Learn how friction influences movement, the differences between static and kinetic ...

Another theory held that the forces between two particles falls off exponentially in direct relationship to the distance between two particles and that the factor by which it drops is not dependent on ...

Master the right-hand rule in physics with this easy-to-follow tutorial! In this video, we explain how to use the right-hand rule correctly to determine directions of magnetic fields, currents, and ...

Any Cornell student who has taken physics class may have wondered at some point: “what makes physics so difficult to understand?” While students may be asking this out of frustration, Prof. Paula ...

Machine learning can get a boost from quantum physics. On certain types of machine learning tasks, quantum computers have an exponential advantage over standard computation, scientists report in the ...

The groundwork for machine learning was laid down in the middle of last century. But increasingly powerful computers – harnessed to algorithms refined over the past decade – are driving an explosion ...
