In a large, empty Dennison lecture hall Friday afternoon, three people wheeled in a large copper Tesla coil, a device that produces high-voltage, low-current electricity. After efficiently setting ...

A teacher from the popular ed-tech platform Physics Wallah has recently gone viral on social media for his incredibly unique approach to teaching the concept of chirality in chemistry. The online ...

A workshop on innovative experiments in physics for classroom teaching will be organised by Vigyan Prasar, Department of Science and Technology, at the Department of Physics, National Institute of ...

Math, specifically calculus, is a barrier to many natural sciences, technology and engineering fields. Physics, which is math-heavy, often proves similarly challenging to students who wish to pursue ...

Let’s face it — for the average person, math and formulas are not the most attractive side of physics. The fun is in the hands-on learning, the lab work, the live action demonstrations of Mother ...

Science presenter Jon Chase explains friction. He describes how friction opposes or prevents motion, and demonstrates the force in action with an experiment involving two interleaved books. Students ...

Michael Richmond considers himself a “lucky guy.” As a professor in RIT’s School of Physics and Astronomy, he gets to spend his workdays talking about the subjects that have fascinated him since he ...

PHYSICS AND THE 'MEGA-LIE': "How does reasoning develop in a life of artificial stimuli?" That's the deep (and depressing) question that Denis Rancourt arrives at in this revealing essay, How to Not ...

Researchers have demonstrated that incorporating known physics into machine learning algorithms can help the inscrutable black boxes attain new levels of transparency and insight into material ...
