What scientists long believed were knots in DNA may actually be persistent twists formed during nanopore analysis, revealing ...

In this video, we’ll break down how to solve physics problems involving the motion of a 2D spring. Learn about the forces at play, how to model the spring’s movement, and the key concepts behind ...

Gas supercars used to own the bragging rights at every stoplight, but the physics of electric torque has quietly rewritten ...

The torque tube is a unique aspect of some Corvette models that help make the ride as smooth as possible. Here's how the ...

How is it that quantum physics governs the very smallest things in the universe, yet classical, Newtonian rules describe the movements of everything else, from people to planets? In the second of two ...

Physicists have transformed a decades-old technique for simplifying quantum equations into a reusable, user-friendly "conversion table" that works on a laptop and returns results within hours. When ...

Microsoft’s near-term margin pressure reflects a “physics problem” of massive AI CapEx colliding with surging long-term demand. Satya Nadella’s “new economics of AI” signals a company-wide shift ...

While atmospheric turbulence is a familiar culprit of rough flights, the chaotic movement of turbulent flows remains an unsolved problem in physics. To gain insight into the system, a team of ...
