You're sitting in physics class, working on a traditional problem involving forces and acceleration, when you start to wonder where these terms even came from. Were they just dreamed up to bring ...

Particle P is able to slide within a smooth slot cut into a disk. The disk is rotating at a constant rate, Ω. We desire to understand the reaction force of the disk slot on the particle as the ...

Imagine you want to study what happens when an object accelerates. Oh, this is way before any of that internet stuff—also, no computers or electronics. In fact, let's say it's the year 1780. What do ...

Chapter 6 of physics dives into force and motion! Learn how forces impact motion, and explore how acceleration, friction, and Newton's laws work in real-world situations. #PhysicsExplained #ForceAndMo ...
