Legend has it that Isaac Newton had the moment of inspiration that would lead to his theory of gravity when, on a warm ...

Gravity is the force of action between two objects. It’s called a natural force because it acts at a distance rather than needing to be in contact. Gravity is the force that holds us down on Earth and ...

Gravity is the attraction between two objects that have mass or energy, whether this is seen in dropping a rock from a bridge, a planet orbiting a star or the moon causing ocean tides. Gravity is ...

Dr Charles Buhler takes people through his lab in a new video. He explains more about how they developed and detected a new force from large electrostatic pressure differences. They claim this force ...

Time for a physics lesson. We only feel gravity’s effect on us when we fall but gravity is always working on us- pulling us down at a force equal to our mass times a constant of 32 feet per second ...

Some physicists believe that a fifth fundamental force could be the cause of some observational anomalies. A study is investigating ways to closely examine the trajectories of well-documented ...

As far as physicists have been able to determine, nature speaks two mutually unintelligible languages: one for gravity and one for everything else. Curves in the fabric of space-time tell planets and ...

Robert Monjo, Ph.D., mathematics professor at Saint Louis University-Madrid, has introduced a theory that may transform scientists' understanding of gravity and its relationship to quantum physics.

In the zero-gravity airplanes or vomit comet, why does stuff behave like there is no gravity when it is just falling? – Austin B., 11, Scranton, Pennsylvania I have flown many times in zero-gravity ...
