    Understanding acceleration

    Acceleration in our daily conversation means to speed up. It can occur in different applications be it transportation, human, animal, object, equipment, etc. a change in velocity of an object is known as acceleration. This is why the greater the acceleration, the greater the change in velocity over a given time Today you’ll get to…

    Understanding renewable energy

    Renewable energy has increased over the years as they serve multiple advantages over non-renewable energy resources. In fact, renewable energy is known as the cleanest way of generating electricity. They provide a ready supply of power without using natural resources and they have a lower risk of environmental problems like the non-renewable resource. Today you’ll…

  • Understanding buoyancy

    Understanding buoyancy

    Have you ever experienced you feeling lighter when swimming in the pool or a bucket feels lighter when drawing water from a well? If you do, buoyancy occurs during those events. In buoyancy, when immersed in water or any source of fluid, a body experiences a force from the downward direction opposite to the direction…

  • Understanding Archimedes principle

    Understanding Archimedes principle

    Archimedes discovered the buoyancy principle, which is used in various applications including ships.  It allows them to float when the weight of the water displaces equals the weight of the ship. Anything shaped to displace its own weight of water before it reaches the point where it will submerge will surely float. Today you’ll get…

  • Relationship between Force and Motion

    Relationship between Force and Motion

    Force and Motion relationship, definition, formula and examples. Physics has exposed to us the different motion of a body. How motion occurs on objects, how an object under motion can be stopped. All these have been explained in my previous article. Well, the answer beyond all these is Force. Force and motion work hand on…
