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

Real life situations such as travelling over time and across distance can be drawn on a graph. Exact distances and times are plotted on the graph. These are shown as co-ordinates. These points are ...

No matter how many times I’ve been told (or written about) the importance of a slow run, I cannot translate it into my training. This is not to say I am the fastest runner. My half marathon goal time ...

Over the past decades, quantum physicists and engineers have developed numerous technologies that harness the principles of quantum mechanics to push the boundaries of classical information science.

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 ...

Speed is a measure of how fast something or somebody is moving. The units of speed are linked to the units of distance and time being used. A formula triangle is a quick way to calculate the speed, ...

Hanging by a thread: Wasp spiders, Argiope bruennichi, are known to incorporate so-called “stabilimenta” into their web structure, but the function of these “extra touches” has remained unknown.
