Shini Somara introduces us to the ideas of motion in a straight line. In this, THE FIRST EPISODE of Crash Course Physics, your host Dr. Shini Somara introduces us to the ideas of motion in a straight ...

Understanding the mechanical limitations of an actuator is critical to successfully applying linear motion devices. Here we review some basic concepts to help you get the most out of your straight ...

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line — so it's no wonder that nearly every motion system includes sections in which parts travel in straight paths. Because these traversing ...

An experiment with light shows that one of the fundamental laws of motion may not always hold in the quantum realm. Much of our understanding of how objects like tennis balls or bicycles move stems ...
