Momentum

Rotation is the action of moving an object around a center and this concept is fully shown in the movie “The Martian”. The rotation however depends on the concept of angular momentum, which is the rotational analog of linear momentum. This quantity is and will be the same for any rotating object and will not change unless it is ever impacted with an external force. In this case per say the Earth or Mars, rotating about its axis the physical quantity will always be conserved. Thus poses the…

The aim of this paper is to test whether the momentum effect is still exist in UK financial market and the test for the effect and profitability of momentum strategies in paper is based on the methodology used by Jegadeesh and Titman (1993) and DeBondt and Thaler (1985, 1987). While, this study assess the profitability of JxK trading strategies, where the securities are assigned to portfolios according to a ranking in period t based on the previous J months ‘returns. In order to avoid biases,…

the education received in class and literature available, we had the opportunity to observe an outpatient physical therapy clinic at Momentum Physical Therapy. At this specific location, care is given from five physical therapists, which provided us the unique opportunity to walk around and observe different treatment styles. The primary goal of patient care at Momentum is to restore muscle and joint function along with increase mobility. Our first patient was a middle-aged woman with…

2 Loads and Structural Stress Because of the energy content of the wind is relative to the cube of the wind speed, turbine blades exposed to wind speeds will be under an enormous amount of stress. In order to diminish the impact of wind speeds, turbine manufacturers develop the rotors on them with few blades somehow they are as narrow and long as practical (Pinting ZHANG and Shuhong HUANG 2011). The maximum efficiency from such blades can be attained based on the pitch at an optimum angle…

Variations in the cross-sectional stock returns drive abnormal returns from momentum investments (Choi & Kim, 2014). The Capital Asset Pricing Model explains such variations (Alhenawi, 2015). In the method of constructing momentum portfolios, past stock performance and expected average returns were found positively correlated (Jegadeesh & Titman, 1993, 2001). The correlation between winner returns and loser returns resulted in momentum profits (Alphonse & Nguyen, 2013). This section is an…

that average stock returns have no relationship with size, risk, and beta, but establishes weak relationship between dividend yield and stock returns. The study finds strong momentum in the sample data. The results provide some very important implications to investors and policy makers. First, the findings show that momentum returns strategies become more profitable during distressed periods than during up- performs even better in sound economic periods. Second, from the sample studies, the…

break. What can we do to protect the egg from breaking when it falls? First, there are many factors that affect the egg when it falls. The factors are momentum, air resistance, pressure, gravity, and angular momentum. The first factor is Momentum; it is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. “P” is the 3D vector stating the object’s momentum in 3 directions of 3D space. Where “V” is the 3D velocity vector giving the object’s rate of movement in every direction it goes. “M” is the…

and included only the firms with positive sales, positive assets, and positive market values. The findings show that the neoclassical investment model was capable of clarifying return continuation, risks related to momentum, and relationship between firm characteristics and price momentum. Results of this study contributed to the literature by proving that developing new models, such as based on the neoclassical theory can outperform the…

calculations she fell in love with the sport. When she tried it out she was a natural because she knew at which angles she needed to spin. My childhood inspired me to write my paper on figure skating. The three elements I chose to focus in on are friction, momentum, and Newton’s third law. Friction plays a vital role in figure skating. “The biggest difference between dancing on a floor and skating on ice is the lack of friction”(Moskowitz, “The Physics of Figure Skating”). Ice provides less…

Magnets create magnetic fields, which can attract or repel metal objects. Magnets are utilized in motors, circuits, compasses, and can be used in many other applications. They are also used in something called the Gauss Rifle, which can use magnets to launch a projectile at high speed. It is made up of one or more magnet stages, which consists of a magnet and two ball bearings on one side. The number of magnet stages can determine how fast or how slow the projectile can go. It should be noted…
