  • Vol. 2 No. 2 (2026)

    From the cover: In this issue, we salute Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) who revolutionized science and developed the experimental method. We consider objects falling under the influence of gravity, as well as objects rolling on an inclined plane. We examine the kinematics of motion in these two cases, putting various hypotheses of motion to the test. In nullius verba, we will let evidence, and not authority, decide.

    Vol. 1 No. 2 (2024)

    From the cover: The electric potential, a scalar quantity, can be visualized by drawing equipotentials; isolines or level curves in which potential is a constant. The electric field, a vector field, points in a direction perpendicular to the equipotentials, down the gradient. These physics concepts might be important to consider when designing equipment that makes use of electric fields, such as in a low-cost gel electrophoresis rig. Here, researchers consider this problem. Electrophoresis is a technique where molecules can be sorted according to their charge and size. By characterizing the field and equipotentials within a prototype device, one could eventually predict the movement of various biomolecules of interest, such as fragments of DNA cut into parts at specific nucleotide sequences by restriction enzymes.

    From the cover: Newton's second law relates force, mass, and acceleration and is often written as F = ma.  In this special issue of Journal of Science & Engineering, researchers considered the validity of Newton's second law.

"The cover image is based on the lab setup commonly used in the experiments: a cart on a track connected to a weight by a string that rested on the pulley, but in a simplified style."
