Solve an electrostatics tape problem by calculating the charge on tapes using basic electric force concepts and clear step-by-step reasoning. Perfect practice for Coulomb’s law, charge interactions, ...

A dead satellite can become a high-speed hazard in an orbit that is already packed with working spacecraft. That risk is why engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder are building what sounds ...

Abstract: MEMS force sensors are used in a wide range of technical applications, spanning from industrial and biomedical to consumer and biological fields. Due to their widespread adoption in the ...

Sound is energy carried by vibrations moving through matter. It is something we hear, not something we expect to lift, hold, or precisely control physical objects. And yet, for decades, scientists ...

Ferroelectric fluids use a strong transverse electrostatic force to climb 80 mm, enabling lightweight, low-voltage motors and compact energy-efficient actuators. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have ...

Chalmers researchers have developed a simple, light-based platform to study the mysterious “invisible glue” that binds materials at the nanoscale. Gold flakes floating in salt water reveal how quantum ...

When running high-throughput DFT calculations with the ase.calculators.abacus.Abacus calculator on a cluster where the working directory is mounted via NFS, there appears to be a race condition. The ...
