1. The following events related to untochable force: (1) coconuts falling from the tree to the ground (2) Attract magnetic iron plates (3) footwear be worn after long use (4) Budi push the beam to shift to the right The above events involving untouchable force is the number of events .... a. 1 and 2 b. 1 and 3 c. 2 and 4 d. 4 2. Amir and Badu are playing tug of war. Amir pull to the left with a force of 200 N while Badu pull to the right by the force of 350 N. resultant force generated is ....…

INTRODUCTION • Energy is a scalar quantity. • It was first hypothesized by Newton to express kinetic and potential energies. • We cannot observe energy directly, but we can measure it using indirect methods and analyze its value. • Energy may be in different forms, such as potential, kinetic, magnetic or electrical. Potential energy of a system is by virtue of its location with respect to gravitational field. If an object has a mass m, located at elevation h, and acceleration due to gravity is g…

Pierre Bourdieu was born on 1 August 1930 in Denguin, France. He attained a degree in philosophy and was also the gold medalist of the National Centre for Scientific Research. Throughout his life, he contributed to various areas of discussions and involvements that include art and culture, education, language and methodology (Grenfell 2012:12-14). Bourdieu was also influenced by Karl Marx and adapted his theories to elaborate further on capital in regards to class divisions. Similar to Marx,…

J.J Thomson was born in Cheetham Hill, a suburban area in Manchester, England on December 18, 1856. Thomson was a Nobel Prize winning physicist with his research that helped discover the electrons of an atom. J.J Thomson full name was Joseph John Thomson, He was an English physicist and mathematician. Joseph Thomson was considered to be a prodigy at his time, becoming the first to be 14 and attending college. Joseph Thomson’s father was a book seller who intended Thomson to become an engineer.…

Stress: Stress is defined as ‘’the force across a boundary per unit area, for all orientations of that boundary.’’ It is derived from force, a physical quantity and area, a geometrical quantity. Therefore, stress is also characterized as a fundamental quantity, like velocity, energy, etc. that can be brought under quantification and can be analyzed without any obvious attention of the physical grounds of the material or of its nature. Example: When a solid bar is supporting a load, each…

1. The pendulum of a clock swings back and forth. At what position will its kinetic energy be the greatest? At what position will its kinetic energy equal its potential energy? When the pendulum of a clock swings back and forth, the pendulum reaches its maximum potential energy at the top of the swing, and it reaches its maximum kinetic energy at the bottom of the swing. In the absence of frictional forces, the pendulum’s kinetic energy will be equal to its potential energy at the bottom of the…

Meshing of knuckle joint Figure 8.1 meshing of knuckle joint 8.2 Constraints applied on knuckle joint for analysis Figure 8.2 constraints applied on knuckle joint CONCLUSION After studying knuckle joint used in tractor-trailer then after making design and analysis of knuckle joint for stresses and deflection the following conclusions can be drawn: From the above results and discussion, Knuckle joint was design for 52860 N axial load by theoretical calculation. From theoretical…

Trampolines are very fun toys, is an activity loved by people of all ages. A trampoline is an object consisting of a piece of taut, a strong fiber extended over a steel frame using many springs, the fabric used on the trampoline bed has certain elasticity, the elasticity is generated by the springs connected to the frame, which store potential energy (the stored energy of position of an object). The first trampoline to be invented, was invented by a trapeze artist called Du Trampolin, he…

Forsythe and Balanchine looked for the mathematical shapes of classical ballet to extend the movements to create longer lines of the human body, similar to architectural renderings. Architecture shaped Balanchine and Forsythe’s work. Associating with different architects, Forsythe educated himself on spatiality and structure to construct the dancers’ bodies. Although Balanchine’s movement applied math to elongate the dancer’s body, Forsythe constructs movements based on researching physics. In…

Harold Sandoval, 08 Apr 17, article review assignment, hasa03953, BBS 100 Wk. 7 The assigned reading material for this week of the course is authored by Nathan Foster, and titled "The effects of Meplat on terminal ballistics". The article appeared on ballisticstudies.com (http://www.ballisticstudies.com/Knowledgebase/The+Effects+Of+The+Meplat+On+Terminal+Ballistics.html) Mr. Foster opened his article by providing a little backdrop on the word "meplat". It is French in origin, and means…
