Force majeure

The text by Nathaniel Van Yperen, “I am Your Father: the Villain and the Future Self” talks at length about perceiving the villain of a story as a version of one’s “future self”, as in Star Wars between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. Van Yperen describes Darth Vader as a villain because Luke can see himself someday turning out like his father. The concept of the “future self” can also be applied to Junot Diaz’s work, “Fiesta, 1980.” Nathaniel Van Yperen defines a villain as someone that a…

My essay is about the job of a beginning/junior accountant. A beginning accountant does many things; the accountant prepares profit and loss statements, balance sheets and other financial reports. Some responsibilities of a beginning accountant are analyzing costs, trends, financial commitments, revenues. The accountant has a commitment to predict future revenues and expenses. The accountant also has the duty to offer suggestions about resource utilization, tax strategies, and assumptions…

What is the design? This design is a bridge stretching from the Sturt library across Sturt road and the A13. This bridge will allow for pedestrians to more than halve the time it takes to walk in the current circumstances. Both of the bridge locations shown in figure 1 and 2 have a travel time of less than 9 minutes assuming the students started walking from the Sturt Library. The bridge has 2 possible resting places. These can be both seen in figure 1 and 2. Figure 1. Bridge location…

acted upon by and unbalance force.” (Classroom, 1996-2016) Inertia describes the tendency of an object to repel any change in motion, and also states that an object with greater mass will have greater inertia. When an unbalanced force acts…

Something that is stressed is that the heavier the object is, more force will be required to move that object. However, the lighter the object, the less force will be required to move it an example could be used in this picture In Figure A, there is a man who car appears to be at a standstill. The man in the picture is appearing to try to move the car to go .05 m/s/s. So, you would be trying to figure out, how much force is the man going to need to apply to the car to get it too move in his…

Suhani Shah & Emma Bekhet Purpose: To develop an efficient and accurate method of using torque to mass a meter stick – without using a triple beam balance or spring scale / force meter. Materials: One meter stick One fulcrum Three sliding Clips One 50 gram hanging mass Procedures: Setup fulcrum Attach a sliding clip at the 50 cm mark of the meter stick and place meter stick on a fulcrum. From that point, move the sliding clip left and right (based on which side of the meter stick is…

Projectile motion is basically a linear path the object will go in when force acts on the object in this case the force would be the foot kicking the ball. When the ball is kicked up with the force to go over the opponents head this will form an upside parabola shaped arch. When the ball hits its highest point , which is the max point, the velocity is zero and then the ball starts…

In my short experience of the college life, I was forced to adapt to some different circumstances. Throughout this short journey, I learned a thing or two. I was force to balance not only my finances but also my time. I learned new organization tactics as well as key skills about managing my priorities. This is evident in the major increase to my self-management score. It’s no secret that college can be a very stressful time in a young adult’s life, and my summer experience was no exception. I…

law when force is increased acceleration increases assuming that mass stays constant. a=F/m Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to prove when force increases acceleration also increases. The independent variable is amount of force applied to the Lenny Board and the dependant variable is the acceleration of the Lenny Board. 3 controlled variables are mass, surface of testing, and the Lenny Board (the weight, the amount of grease on the bearings, ECT) itself. Hypothesis 1: If we increase force on…

Diagram 1.6: Diagram showing tension force in the string (from 0 cm increasing in 1 cm until a displacement of 15 cm has been attained) This diagram shows the manner in which the tension force applied to the string was calculated. Starting at 0 centimeters, forces were provided in the string such that the string would extend one additional centimeter from the previous measurement. Using the Capstone® software, the force applied to the string was calculated at the given horizontal…
