How do skateboarders seemingly defy gravity? How do gymnasts flip in the air? They have skill — and, as a Times interactive explored, an understanding of the laws of motion, physics and energy. By ...

Researchers have developed a new way to visualize how ancient animals moved as they roamed the Earth — starting with a Yale-discovered dinosaur’s sickle-clawed foot. The new approach, which uses ...

Chapter 6 of physics dives into force and motion! Learn how forces impact motion, and explore how acceleration, friction, and Newton's laws work in real-world situations. #PhysicsExplained #ForceAndMo ...

Short demo: The fan in a vacuum pushes air out, creating a system of low pressure. This in turn creates a system of low pressure within the bag, allowing for an entertaining demonstration of the power ...

This article was originally featured on Knowable Magazine. Isaac Newton would never have discovered the laws of motion had he studied only cats. Suppose you hold a cat, stomach up, and drop it from a ...

A team of researchers has developed the first transmission electron microscope which operates at the temporal resolution of a single attosecond, allowing for the first still-image of an electron in ...

Shaped by a different biology or culture, other intelligent civilisations – if they’re out there – might understand the ...
