Dive into a classic physics problem with this Feynman Lecture exercise! In this video, we analyze the motion of a bobbin on an incline, breaking down the forces, torques, and dynamics step by step.

In stark contrast, peer countries are largely seeing the opposite trend. In Nordic Europe, midlife adults are reporting lower levels of loneliness and better physical health than their predecessors.

Mathematicians from the California Institute of Technology have solved an old problem related to a mathematical process called a random walk.

A new plasma framework reframes ignition, sustainment, and degradation, redefining energy behavior for next-generation ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

Abstract: Nonsmooth phenomena, such as abrupt changes, impacts, and switching behaviors, frequently arise in real-world systems and present significant challenges for traditional optimal control ...

Harnessing the power of the sun holds the promise of providing future societies with energy abundance. To make this a reality, fusion researchers need to address many technological challenges. For ...
