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 ...

Since 1687, Sir Isaac Newton’s three laws of motion, as published in his work “Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy,” have guided our understanding of the relationships between physical ...

Newton's laws of motion are everywhere around you, explaining everything from why you feel pushed back in your seat when a car accelerates to how rockets blast off into space. These three simple ...

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 ...

Baseball and weather have something in common: Science, especially physics, is important to each. Today we're learning from Meteorologist Bill Henley how three important Laws of Motion affect how far ...

Despite the claims of “free energy” on the title of the video below, this is not yet another wacky perpetual motion story. We here at Hackaday fully support the laws of thermodynamics, and we think ...

Scientists seek a single description of reality. But modern physics allows for many different descriptions, many equivalent to one another, connected through a vast landscape of mathematical ...

This article was originally featured on Knowable Magazine. Isaac Newton would never have discovered the laws of motion had he studied only cats. Suppose you hold a cat, stomach up, and drop it from a ...

The idea of emergent gravity is still new and requires a lot of assumptions in its calculations to make it work. But if experimental evidence ever proves it real, we would need to totally rewrite the ...
