"Learn how to simulate elastic collisions using Python in this hands-on physics tutorial! In this video, we’ll walk through the code to model collisions between two objects, showing how to apply the ...

In this Closer Look segment, we explore several examples of the Conservation of Energy. In this Closer Look segment, we explore the Conservation of Energy by looking at a football thrown as a ...

Total energy must be conserved. Every student of physics learns this fundamental law. The trouble is, it does not apply to the universe as a whole Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. This ...

On the set of “Jane the Virgin”, Dr. Bennett, played by El Camino College physics professor Paul Haitkin, told Rogelio De La ...

When optical gain or loss are precisely controlled using nanophotonics, a new physical event called the non-Hermitian phenomenon can be observed, potentially the next-generation technology of optical ...

As Washington state invests in the electrification of its public transportation fleet while preparing for a ban on privately ...

Time crystals are a true anomaly as they violate the law of conservation, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. The crystals are incredibly rare, but now scientists at Yale ...

Researchers have taken a major step forward in the technology of spintronics by controlling spin states of highly mobile electrons at different locations in a semiconductor and turning the collective ...

Death is something that, sooner or later, we will all have to deal with. Even our very solar system has an expiration date. For many, this is a rather alarming thought, as death is the “great unknown.

The first semester of an undergraduate physics course invariably spends a lot of time on two big ideas: The momentum principle and the work energy principle. Both deal with forces acting on an object, ...
