Swivel on it…
In previous parts we have considered and described linear motion and constant linear acceleration. We will now expand upon this a little and consider how the same principles apply to rotation. Again firstly we will [more…]

As promised in part two we will now construct an experiment to demonstrate acceleration under gravity, show how vectors can be “resolved” into a 2 dimensional plane (3 three dimensional if you fancy the extra [more…]
In part one we covered the basics of motion, some definitions, a few useful equations, units of measurement and similar governing constant linear acceleration. This time we are going to look at Newton’s three laws [more…]
Musings on objects and motion, part one, the basics Recently a comment, that nobody read, was posted by one of our more trollish contributors trying to toll people about the world not be round or [more…]
In The Basel Problem we saw that Euler answered the question by showing that the sum of the reciprocals of the square numbers is equal to . That is The partial sums slowly converge to [more…]
Lots of your friends might be very upset this Christmas, Boris has decisively won the election and consequently we are definitely leaving the EU. To make their day you can also explain about why they [more…]
Wilson’s Theorem is a test for primality. It is inefficient for large numbers since factorials () grow very fast. Nevertheless, it has its uses because of its simplicity. It was conjectured by Wilson and published [more…]
Swiss Bob’s favourite place of work – not actually in the main building, we were fortunate to be about 50m away where we couldn’t be seen staggering back from 2-4 hour lunches This is going [more…]
Euler gave us this jewel which is regarded by many as the most beautiful equation in mathematics; it has both elegance and simplicity. It is comprised of five fundamental numbers and the operations of addition, [more…]
