Break down the physics behind the MythBusters Rocket Car with this detailed explanation of net force! In this video, we analyze the forces acting on the rocket car, step by step, to show how Newton’s ...

Part one of a four part series on the fundamental forces (or interactions) of physics begins with the strong force or strong interaction - which on the small scale holds quarks together to form ...

For the first time, physicists in China have virtually eliminated the friction felt between two surfaces at scales visible to the naked eye. In demonstrating "structural superlubricity," the team, led ...

Watching, modeling and even playing winter sports help students internalize physics concepts, including acceleration, ...

Abstract: The main bearings of large rotating machinery often encounter heavy overloads, significant offset loads, and variable loads during operation. Accurately sensing the internal contact force ...

Some forces are called contact forces because they require objects to touch. One is tension force, found in stretched wires. Another is the force found in a spring. And last are resistive forces: ...

Abstract: Humans can steadily and gently grasp unfamiliar objects based on tactile perception. Robots still face challenges in achieving similar performance due to the difficulty of learning accurate ...
