Where the centripetal acceleration formula comes from

Learn where the centripetal acceleration formula comes from with a clear, step-by-step derivation. This video explains circular motion, velocity direction changes, and the physics behind the equation, ...
Some historians claim that Isaac Newton had already formulated the categories in the Principia twenty years earlier. This is based on two extant documents (1664–1665 and 1669). Derek Whiteside claims ...
With the exam approaching, experts advise aspirants to prioritise repeatedly asked topics in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics to maximise scores through smart, targeted preparation rather than ...

The New Scientist Book Club made a jump backwards through time for our latest read, Alex Foster’s Circular Motion, moving from the millennia-ahead future of Adam Roberts’s Lake of Darkness to a world ...
In the past month, Earth experienced some of its shortest days on record. The planet spun quickly enough to shave 1.4 milliseconds off of its usual 24-hour day. These natural accelerations in Earth’s ...
Equations of Motion from a Lagrangian of a cosmological model with fading dark matter and interacting quintessence, implemented into CLASS A system of N interacting bodies moving in 3 dimensions over ...
Alex Foster’s debut novel, “Circular Motion,” is precisely 360 pages long, an appropriately exact total for a story about a near future in which international travel has been revolutionized by the ...
