Master the physics behind a backspinning bouncing ball and uncover the secrets of its rotation! This video explains angular momentum, torque, and energy transfer in a clear, step-by-step way, making ...

When a magnetic material is bombarded with short pulses of laser light, it loses its magnetism within femtoseconds (10 –15 seconds). The spin, or angular momentum, of the electrons in the material ...

Explore the physics behind high dives as we calculate and estimate the number of flips a diver can perform from a 10-meter platform! In this video, we break down key concepts such as free fall, ...

Photons can have half-integer values of angular momentum when they are confined to fewer than three dimensions. That is the conclusion of physicists in Ireland, who have revived an experiment first ...

During the 2026 Winter Olympics, athletes will leap off ramps, slide across ice and spin through the air. These performances will look different to my students who have studied physics through sports.
