Starting with Newton’s first law of motion, we delve into how objects behave when they are at rest or in uniform motion. The second law unravels the relationship between mass, acceleration and ...

There’s plenty of chatter and research surrounding the so-called “laws” of productivity, but even the laws we use to govern other areas of our lives can be applicable when there are things that need ...

For hundreds of years, we have been told what Newton’s First Law of Motion supposedly says, but recently a paper published in Philosophy of Science (preprint) by [Daniel Hoek] argues that it is based ...

An experiment with light shows that one of the fundamental laws of motion may not always hold in the quantum realm. Much of our understanding of how objects like tennis balls or bicycles move stems ...

For nearly 300 years, Isaac Newton’s first law of motion has been one of the most fundamental principles in physics. But a new study suggests that a small mistranslation in its original English ...

When Isaac Newton inscribed onto parchment his now-famed laws of motion in 1687, he could have only hoped we'd be discussing them three centuries later. Writing in Latin, Newton outlined three ...

Keep on moving – or not! Explore Newton’s First Law of Motion! Keep on moving – or not! Explore Newton’s First Law of Motion! Dr. Rob and the Crew use bowling balls, beads, and bottles to investigate ...

Since 1687, Sir Isaac Newton’s three laws of motion, as published in his work “Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy,” have guided our understanding of the relationships between physical ...

Human sperm cells and some microorganisms swim by deforming their bodies in a way that breaks Newton’s third law of motion – and we’re closer to understanding how they do it. The findings could ...

A subtle mistranslation of Isaac Newton’s first law of motion that flew under the radar for three centuries is giving new insight into what the pioneering natural philosopher was thinking when he laid ...
