Every week, the readers of our space newsletter, The Airlock, send in their questions for space reporter Neel V. Patel to answer. This week: how to produce artificial Earth-like gravity through ...

Explore the physics behind rope swings and learn how to calculate the maximum tension in the rope using centripetal acceleration. This video breaks down the forces at play when swinging in a circular ...

In a fixed-field alternating-gradient (FFAG) accelerator, eliminating pulsed magnet operation permits rapid acceleration to synchrotron energies, but with a much higher beam-pulse repetition rate.

Explore the half Atwood machine and learn how friction affects acceleration! This physics tutorial explains key concepts, calculations, and practical insights for students and enthusiasts. #Physics ...

\(\Delta v\) (pronounced 'delta v' is the change in speed of the object. Acceleration is measured in metres per second per second or metres per second squared \(m\, s^{-2}\). A sprinter starting at ...
