Why do we sometimes underperform when it matters most? Hidden mental interference can hijack attention. How do we regain ...

Abstract: This article describes a method for stiffness tuning (ST) of a hemispherical shell resonator (HSR) based on the electrostatic forces applied to discrete electrodes. The frequency splitting ...

Understand why the electric force can be zero in electrostatics by exploring charge interactions, symmetry, and superposition. This video explains the physical intuition and mathematical reasoning ...

Solve an electrostatics tape problem by calculating the charge on tapes using basic electric force concepts and clear step-by-step reasoning. Perfect practice for Coulomb’s law, charge interactions, ...

Researchers have discovered that ferroelectric fluids can harness an overlooked transverse electrostatic force (TEF) to rise over 80 mm, without magnets or high voltages. By exploiting the fluid’s ...

Ferroelectric fluids use a strong transverse electrostatic force to climb 80 mm, enabling lightweight, low-voltage motors and compact energy-efficient actuators. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have ...

Due to the unique conditions of the space environment and abundant resources, the field investigation and study of the Moon, Earth’s sole natural satellite, represent a crucial milestone in China’s ...

The same pulling force that causes “tears” in a glass of wine also shapes embryos. It’s another example of how genes exploit mechanical forces for growth and development. Sip a glass of wine, and you ...
