Physics can feel inscrutable to students; this lesson helps them understand a graphing problem by analyzing their own ...

The law of conservation of momentum states that within a closed system, the total momentum remains constant, assuming no ...

The world of physics often seems abstract, filled with equations and complex theories. However, conceptual physics brings these ideas down to earth, making them understandable and relatable. Chapter ...

How do we know the speed of light – and why does it have a speed limit at all? Leah Crane explores the history of one of the ...

Researchers at TU Wien have developed numerical models to simulate the movement of fluids in porous materials.

Extreme weather events such as heavy rain and flooding pose growing challenges for early warning systems worldwide.

Physics is the search for and application of rules that can help us understand and predict the world around us. Central to physics are ideas such as energy, mass, particles and waves. Physics attempts ...

The manuscript by Hensley and Yildez studies the mechanical behavior of kinesin under conditions where the z-component of the applied force is minimized. The important study shows that much of the ...

Glacier erosion is transforming Earth's landmass at an astonishing rate. Artificial intelligence reveals how melting ice ...

Scientists at top-tier research institutions have made a significant breakthrough by recreating miniature versions of cosmic “fireballs” in laboratory conditions. These intense bursts of plasma, ...

According to calculations from IFLScience's resident astronomer, Dr Alfredo Carpineti, using data from NASA's Eyes on the ...

We measure the “warmness” of the dark matter, i.e. the comoving root-mean-square thermal velocity v hrms (1) , with nearly 3000 spiral galaxy rotation curves in the ...
