I see this problem all the time. The idea that if you apply a constant force on an object, it should move at a constant speed. Really, this is what Aristotle would say, right? There are two course ...

With its combined knowledge of micro-manufacturing processes and accuracy processes, CSEM has been a pioneer in the design and production of centimeter-scale silicon parts with fine mechanical ...

Everything in life runs better when it's constant. Daily activities are completed with ease if things in our lives remain steady, as jerky or erratic changes tend to disrupt our flow. The expression ...

Your everyday notion of forces probably includes pushing and pulling and similar actions. Technically, when something is pushed or pulled we say that "a force is applied to the object". What happens ...

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 ...

One of the most popular ways to obtain nanomechanical information by atomic force microscopy is single-point measurements that track the force applied on the sample versus the cantilever’s Z-piezo ...
