A force is a push or a pull that acts on an object due to the interaction with another object. Force is measured in newtons (N). Forces are divided into contact forces and non-contact forces. A force ...

Physicists and educationalists have many theories about why so few girls study physics. Valerie Jamieson goes back to school and asks female pupils what they really think. Vanessa Bennett, Callie ...

So Oh. Yeah. Yeah. This is all about having combining the engineering design process and the physics theory. It uses impulse momentum, Newton's laws of motion, and kinematics, which is what they've ...

Windows/Mac/Linux (All platforms): Phun, a free open-source, cross-platform 2D physics simulator, makes you want to pick up blocks, or maybe crayons, and learn more about the way things fall and move ...

At 33, I graduated with a bachelor's degree in physics. I’m not a great mathematician, but the physics concepts were easy to get because so many of them were analogous to life. Research suggests that ...
