Kinetic energy has to do with the motion of an object—the faster it’s moving, the more kinetic energy it has. If you take a ...

How Does the Energy Recovery System Work? To determine whether the energy recovery system is useful, we must first understand ...

Oh, sure, you’ve seen a watermelon dropped from a balcony onto a trampoline. But what happens when you drop a car from a high tower onto a trampoline? That’s a whole new level of physics fun, and it’s ...

Game-changing technology to design traffic lights that absorb kinetic energy, stopping them from crumpling when hit by a vehicle, will prevent thousands of fatalities and injuries each year and make ...

However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend. Instead, their evolution takes the form of an S-shaped curve that reflects their typical lifecycle from early ...

As a consulting mechanical engineer, I assessed more than 400 crash tests for the Australasian New Car Assessment Program from 1996 to 2017. It is always interesting to answer questions like this. The ...

Kinetic recovery ropes are a game changer for serious off-roaders. Unlike flat tow ropes, they harness the unique power of kinetic energy to smoothly pull stuck vehicles out of tough spots with ...

China is planning a kinetic impact demonstration mission to test the feasibility of defending Earth against potentially hazardous asteroids, a senior space scientist revealed at an international ...
