Watching, modeling and even playing winter sports help students internalize physics concepts, including acceleration, ...

This Chapter 10 summary covers the key concepts of rotational motion and angular momentum in physics. The video explains torque, rotational kinematics, moment of inertia, and conservation of angular ...

Introduction You might have seen figure skaters spinning around quickly and then tucking their arms to spin faster—or opening them to spin more slowly. This happens, thanks to a physics concept known ...

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 ...

The Einstein–de Haas effect, which links the spin of electrons to macroscopic rotation, has now been demonstrated in a ...

In an introductory physics course, there are three big ideas. There is the work-energy principle, the momentum principle and then the angular momentum principle. I'll skip the work-energy principle ...

You can take any particle in the Universe and isolate it from everything else, yet there are some properties that can never be taken away. These are intrinsic, physical properties of the particle ...

Monopoles of orbital angular momentum (OAM) are a tantalizing prospect for orbitronics because OAM is uniform in all directions. This would mean that information flows could be generated in any ...

Discover how to derive the orbital angular velocity of a hydrogen atom step by step using classical and quantum physics principles. This video breaks down the math behind electron motion, angular ...

Optical vortices are currently one of the most intensively studied topics in optics. These light beams, which carry orbital angular momentum (OAM), have been successfully utilized in the visible and ...
