Tugging a small toy with your dog can be a lot of fun—but it’s also a great way to experiment with forces acting on an object. Forces are what scientists call the pushing and pulling on objects. In ...

Why do things fall? It’s about force and motion. Find out more in this Science Trek short. A force is basically a push or a pull. Forces like gravity, inertia, and momentum affect everything. On this ...

Find out more about Sir Isaac Newton’s laws of force and motion at the amusement park, Silverwood. A force is basically a push or a pull. Forces like gravity, inertia, and momentum affect everything.

Newton's first law can also be used to explain the movement of objects travelling with non-uniform motion. This includes situations when the speed changes, the direction changes, or both change. For ...

Physics, especially the part about forces and motion, often feels like a maze of confusing concepts and formulas. If you’ve ever stared at a problem about an object moving or a force acting and ...

This series of short explainer films with Professor Brian Cox comprises six clips focused on forces, speed and motion. Each clip uses simple terms and concrete examples to explain deep concepts that ...

Electromechanical actuators are mechanical actuators where the control knob or handle has been replaced by an electric motor. The rotary motion of the motor is converted into linear displacement. The ...
