Some forces are called contact forces because they require objects to touch. One is tension force, found in stretched wires. Another is the force found in a spring. And last are resistive forces: ...

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.

Physics, particularly forces and motion, can be challenging. By observing everyday motion, conducting simple experiments, and understanding Newton's laws in plain language, the concepts become more ...

Step into the hidden science lab in your kitchen with five easy experiments that explain refraction, surface tension, ...

Suppose you toss a ball in the air. After leaving your hand, it rises and slows down as it rises. Why? Does it slow down because some force runs out as it rises? Is the force of the hand transferred ...

Kurth Primary and Trout Elementary teachers were dodging Easter marshmallows when sixth-graders from Lufkin Middle School’s STEM prep classes came to present science experiments to second-graders ...
