Bengaluru resident Lalit Gour's humorous take on the city's notorious traffic has gone viral. Frustrated by a 48-minute commute for just 3.6 km, he jokingly proposed a 'fourth law of motion': 'A ...

Newton’s laws of motion and gravity, Wegener’s theory of plate tectonics, and human-made climate change all faced prolonged scrutiny before achieving consensus.

Learning with TOI News: Newton's laws of motion, often perceived as abstract, are actually evident in everyday experiences. The first law explains inertia, demonstrated by se ...

For centuries, astronomers tracked and measured the motion of planets in the solar system. They found that all the planets followed the path predicted by Newton’s laws of motion, except for Uranus.

Human sperm can swim through surprisingly viscous fluids with ease – and they seemingly defy Newton's third law of motion to do so.

Boltzmann could already show that Newton’s laws of motion give rise to his mesoscopic equation, so long as one crucial assumption holds true: that the particles in the gas move more or less ...

Decades later, Newton developed his laws of motion and the theory of universal gravity. In the 1690s, Newton used his work to explain variations in the Moon’s motions.

Would any one person living today have come up with Newton’s Laws of Motion? With Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection? It is not clear. What, then? I wish to suggest that we simply work ...

A basketball bounces off the ground because of course it does, and because — as Isaac Newton wrote while setting out his now-famous Laws of Motion in the 1600s — for every action, there is an equal ...
