Imagine you want to study what happens when an object accelerates. Oh, this is way before any of that internet stuff—also, no computers or electronics. In fact, let's say it's the year 1780. What do ...

Physical Formulas: The Keys to Unlocking the Mysteries of the Universe ...

Step 1 - FBD: Draw individual FBDs of the bar and the block. Step 2 - Kinetics: Using your FBDs above, write down the Newton/Euler equations for the block and the bar. Be careful with your moment ...

I assume the laws of physics still apply in "unintended acceleration." In particular, F=ma, "force equals mass times acceleration," implies that acceleration depends on a continued applied force. With ...

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.

The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying terminal velocity, Newton's first, second and third laws and braking. If you struggled with the quiz, don't panic - we've got ...
