Researchers have developed a chip-scale optical ring-laser gyroscope that can measure rotation as slow as 37 degrees per hour ...

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?

Circular thinking: light a ring laser has been used to measure the Earth’s rotation. (Courtesy: iStock/amtitus) A gyroscope sensitive enough to detect Earth’s rotation has been created using a ...

Physicists have built a tabletop device that extracts energy from electromagnetic waves by mimicking the rotational physics of a black hole. The experiment uses a ring of time-modulated resonators to ...

A detailed experimental analysis explains the forces by which a spinning magnet can cause another magnet to levitate in midair. An experiment with off-the-shelf components uses a magnet glued to the ...

Researchers detected the effect of rotating a crystal on the spin of an embedded particle, a result that could lead to ultrasensitive rotation sensors. Spinning diamond. A small slab of diamond is ...

When learning about "work and energy" in high school physics, many people likely memorized the following formulas.Work = ...

Flash Physics is our daily pick of the latest need-to-know developments from the global physics community selected by Physics World‘s team of editors and reporters A proposal for a compact yet highly ...

Researchers demonstrate that they can magnetize hydrogen nuclei in water by rotating the liquid at high speeds. Rotate a metal rod fast enough and the rod will spontaneously magnetize, with the spins ...
