Can we create artificial gravity, or is it still science fiction? In this video, we break the problem down using real physics ...
Learn how tension and friction interact when an object moves at constant velocity. This video breaks down the force balance, explains why acceleration is zero, and shows how physics principles apply ...
If the angular velocity of a link in a mechanism is zero, does this imply that the angular acceleration of that link is also zero? The short answer to that question is NO. If ω(t) represents the ...
Newton's Second Law states that force equals mass times acceleration. This can be investigated using a set-up like this one. You can use this set-up to investigate how changing two separate factors, ...
The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying terminal velocity, Newton's first, second and third laws and braking. If you struggled with the quiz, don't panic - we've got ...
Luke Aikins went skydiving without a parachute. This is crazy---not because it's impossible, but because really bad things happen if you make a mistake. If you haven't seen the video, it shows Aikins ...
People with fast street cars like to put them through their paces at the quarter-mile track. One way to get your quarter-mile time is to just buckle up and put the pedal to the metal. But if your ...
