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 ...

Find out how forces and motion make our world move in the Science Trek: The Web Show. The world is full of motion and motion happens because of force. On this episode of Science Trek: The Web Show, ...

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: ...

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 ...

Fourth-grade students at Jackson Elementary School recently practiced measurement skills and developed an understanding of force and motion by conducting experiments in teams. Brian Hunt, from left, ...
