This video guides you through the process of calculating the acceleration of a block sliding down an inclined plane with ...

Newton's Second Law states that force equals mass times acceleration. This can be investigated using a set-up like this one. You can use this set-up to investigate how changing two separate factors, ...

In this video, we break down the math behind centripetal acceleration in circular motion. From the basics to the formula, we’ll show you how acceleration works when an object moves in a circle! #Centr ...

When an object does not start at rest, you need to measure both the initial velocity and the final velocity to be able to calculate the acceleration. One way to to do this is to use a double mask. A ...

After mentioning the Six Flags America Roller Coaster Design Contest earlier this month, I received an invitation to Physics Day at the amusement park. I had to convince my boss I didn’t intend to ...

Now that David Beckham won't be appearing at the London 2012 Olympics, other members of Team GB wanting to brush up on their free-kicks can rest easy. A physics students has figured out the optimum ...
