Water rolls on h-BN but encounters friction on graphene. Atomic structure and substrate shape nanoscale movement, guiding advances in coatings and anti-icing surfaces.

Publication: Understanding water behaviour on 2D material interfaces through single-molecule motion on h-BN and graphene.

Everyone loves perpetual motion machines. They are a representation of the highest level of creativity in finding loopholes in the laws of physics. Let's take a look at this one. What is a perpetual ...

A research team at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has engineered soft materials with highly ...

Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? Did you know that, at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? I mean, kinda... it's all relative, right?

In this video, we simulate the motion of an object near Earth using Python! Watch how we apply physics and programming to model realistic motion, from gravity to orbital paths. #PythonSimulation #Phys ...

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 ...

Isaac Newton would never have discovered the laws of motion had he studied only cats. Suppose you hold a cat, stomach up, and drop it from a second-story window. If a cat is simply a mechanical system ...

The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying motion in a straight line, velocity and acceleration, distance-time graphs, velocity-time graphs and velocity, acceleration ...
