Maxwell’s equations of electromagnetism and the Euler equation top a poll to find the greatest equations of all time. Robert P Crease discusses the results of his reader survey First among equals – ...

Lowry Kirkby reviews The Theoretical Minimum: What You Need to Know to Start Doing Physics by Leonard Susskind and George Hrabovsky Thirst for physics: Leonard Susskind's popular series of lectures ...

All the tech we rely on, from cars to smartphones, was engineered using physics. You don’t need to know the science to use these things. But a well-rounded human should understand at least some of the ...

Quantum mechanics is concerned with the behavior of the tiniest of particles, and usually the mathematics behind it is relegated to this tiny realm. Now, a researcher from the California Institute of ...

The goal of drive-system engineers is usually pretty straightforward. Specify the smallest motor and drive needed to accelerate and run a load at a required rate, and determine the braking forces ...

Kinematics Equation: The branch of physics that defines motion concerning space and time, ignoring the cause of that motion, is known as Kinematics. Kinematics equations are a set of formulas used in ...

Over the weekend, cosmologist and author Sean Carroll tweeted about what physics majors should know, namely that "the Standard Model is an SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) gauge theory, and know informally what that ...
