The Doppler effect can be heard particularly clearly when a train passes by. The presence of the same effect in the generalised telegraph equation indicates the wave nature of heat transport over ...

The headline is somewhat of a trick question: of course the effect did exist before the railroads. However, it wasn’t yet defined by the physics of the day, nor was it even noticed before the ...

This is the fifth and final instalment of our “five amazing physics demonstrations” presented by science-demo guru Neil Downie and his adept assistant Matthew Isbell. In a special feature in the April ...
