Before we jump into the advantages and disadvantages, let’s understand what friction is. Friction might sound like a big word, but we experience it every day, especially when we play, walk, or even write!...
The effects of friction or frictional force are seen everywhere in daily life. It helps us walk without slipping, but it also wears out shoes and slows down moving objects. Friction occurs when two...
Force is the push or pull that makes something move, change direction, or bring it to rest. It can also speed up or slow down a moving body. There are various types of forces...
In lever, there are three different ways of arranging effort, load, and fulcrum. Therefore, depending on the relative positions of the fulcrum, the load, and the effort there are three different types of levers....
Simple machines make work easier by reducing effort, changing force direction, or increasing speed. They are everywhere, from household tools to playground equipment. Many people think machines are complex devices with engines or electricity....
For a body in motion, both speed and velocity are measures that help us understand how fast it is moving. While they may seem similar at first glance, there are key differences between the...
As per the law of conservation of energy, the quantity of energy in this universe remains constant. It means we can neither create energy nor destroy it. However, we can change energy from one...
Distance and displacement are two physical quantities related to the measurement of length. Children often use these terms interchangeably, but only a few understand the difference between them. Yes, you read that right—distance and...
In physics, the terms work and energy have specific meanings that differ from how we commonly use them in our day-to-day lives. Daily activities like playing, pedaling a bicycle, or carrying a load are examples...
In physics, a physical quantity is anything that can be measured, and it falls into one of two categories: scalar and vector quantities. Scalars are defined solely by their magnitude, while vectors require both...
