Sport-related experiments are often crowd-pleasing classics in physics labs. Baseball or softball calculations are often simplified to head-on, energy-conserved collisions between two balls instead of ...

In a homework problem for this course, students are asked to consider the motion of a system made up of a plate (having a mass of m) which is pinned to a cart B (having a mass of M) at corner O. The ...

THE experimental results of Shankland 1 are in contradiction with the accepted theory of the Compton effect, in particular with the idea of detailed conservation of energy and momentum. If we accept ...
