Welcome to Python Physics Lesson 5, where we explore projectile motion with drag forces. In this lesson, we go beyond idealized motion to show how air resistance affects trajectories, velocity, and ...

Physics, particularly forces and motion, can be challenging. By observing everyday motion, conducting simple experiments, and understanding Newton's laws in plain language, the concepts become more ...

All of the sports at the Winter Olympics in Milano Cortino involve some physics in action. For figure skating, ski jumping ...

You're sitting in physics class, working on a traditional problem involving forces and acceleration, when you start to wonder where these terms even came from. Were they just dreamed up to bring ...

Tugging a small toy with your dog can be a lot of fun—but it’s also a great way to experiment with forces acting on an object. Forces are what scientists call the pushing and pulling on objects. In ...

This series of short explainer films with Professor Brian Cox comprises six clips focused on forces, speed and motion. Each clip uses simple terms and concrete examples to explain deep concepts that ...

Find out more about Sir Isaac Newton’s laws of force and motion at the amusement park, Silverwood. A force is basically a push or a pull. Forces like gravity, inertia, and momentum affect everything.

During the 2026 Winter Olympics, athletes will leap off ramps, slide across ice and spin through the air. These performances will look different to my students who have studied physics through sports.

Units of measurement are are used to represent physical quantities like length, weight and other values. Units can be imperial or metric and can be converted by conversion factors. The movement of ...

Physics, especially the part about forces and motion, often feels like a maze of confusing concepts and formulas. If you’ve ever stared at a problem about an object moving or a force acting and ...
