In this video, we explore five key areas of physics: **Classical Mechanics:** Newton’s second law (F = ma) explains the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The law of universal ...

When you throw a ball in the air, the equations of classical physics will tell you exactly what path the ball will take as it falls, and when and where it will land. But if you were to squeeze that ...

Physicists at Stevens Institute of Technology used Christiaan Huygens' 350-year-old theorem, which explains the workings of pendulums and planets, to reveal new properties of light waves. (Courtesy: ...

Explicit learning goals Interactive lectures Transformed homework problems (including a "bank" of potential HW problems) Common student difficulties & in-class group activities/tutorials Concept tests ...

Quantum computers, systems that process information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, are expected to outperform classical computers on some complex tasks. Over the past few decades, many ...

With simple arguments, researchers show that nature is complicated! Researchers have made a simple experiment that demonstrates that nature violates common sense. The experiment illustrates that light ...

During its teenage and young adult years—what is now referred to as its “classical” period—physics made a lot of mistakes. In the old physics, mass and energy were separately conserved; particles’ ...

With an applied physics: mechanics degree, you’ll combine physics principles with the design experience of mechanical engineering as you prepare for graduate school or industry work. Become who you’re ...

The Master of Science in Physics offers advanced training in core areas of physics and topics of current research. Students wishing to complete this master's degree will find a learning environment ...
