Newton's laws of motion, often perceived as abstract, are actually evident in everyday experiences. The first law explains inertia, demonstrated by seatbelts in cars. The second law, F=ma, clarifies ...

I saw it again. This time it was an introduction to an interesting online look at introductory physics. I was excited---but then, I wasn't so excited. Right there in the first video they talked about ...

Several years back, I had the pleasure of watching Dan Cobley’s TED Talk, “What physics taught me about marketing.” In this talk, Cobley illustrates how physics and the scientific method can be ...

Physics, especially the part about forces and motion, often feels like a maze of confusing concepts and formulas. If you’ve ever stared at a problem about an object moving or a force acting and ...

For years, a fringe theory challenging Isaac Newton’s Laws of Motion, known as Quantized Inertia (QI), has been used in an attempt to create a propellant-less engine. Now, the idea will get its ...

For hundreds of years, we have been told what Newton’s First Law of Motion supposedly says, but recently a paper published in Philosophy of Science (preprint) by [Daniel Hoek] argues that it is based ...

Human sperm cells and some microorganisms swim by deforming their bodies in a way that breaks Newton’s third law of motion – and we’re closer to understanding how they do it. The findings could ...

Newton's Laws of Motion is one of the reasons that Sir Isaac Newton is often considered the No. 1 scientist of all time. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...
