Learn how to calculate the landing distance of a ball thrown from a cliff! In this video, we break down the physics of projectile motion, including horizontal and vertical components, initial velocity ...
The Physics of Sailing find themselves aboard a unique intersection of sailing practice and a traditional science class.
George Walsh, a WWII SB2C Helldiver pilot, explains the physics behind dive bombing, sharing insights on aerial tactics, precision, and wartime aviation techniques.
During the 2026 Winter Olympics, athletes will leap off ramps, slide across ice and spin through the air. These performances will look different to my students who have studied physics through ...
The irregular, swirling motion of fluids we call turbulence can be found everywhere, from stirring in a teacup to currents in the planetary atmosphere. This phenomenon is governed by the Navier-Stokes ...
Right now, molecules in the air are moving around you in chaotic and unpredictable ways. To make sense of such systems, physicists use a law known as the Boltzmann distribution, which, rather than ...
