Imagine a juggler tossing balls into the air. The art of juggling is a dance between motion and pause, where the ball’s speed ...

An equation of motion in the presence of a drag force proportional to the velocity is derived in the framework of alternative ...

Explore the critical angle condition that determines the motion of a spool under applied force. This physics problem breaks down the concepts step by step, explaining when the spool rolls forward, ...

UW-Madison is once again inviting the public to experience science in action with its popular Wonders of Physics shows, a long-running tradition that turns complex concepts into crowd-pleasing ...

The constant, energy-driven motion inside living cells may generate electricity in a way no one fully recognized before.

How do skateboarders seemingly defy gravity? How do gymnasts flip in the air? They have skill — and, as a Times interactive explored, an understanding of the laws of motion, physics and energy. By ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...
