Force majeure

and fluid. The normal force is one component of the contact force between two objects. For example, a roller coaster and its track are normal forces. Another major component is frictional force. It is in a direction parallel to the plane of the interface between objects. Friction always opposes any relative motion between more than surface. Static friction is the friction that exists between a stationary object and the surface on which it is resting. Static frictional forces from the non…

Newton's three laws of motion consist of information about gravity, force and acceleration. The law’s where written by Newton in 1666. Each law explains a different theory about how gravity works. The first law talks about why objects stay in motion or rest unless an unbalanced force is acted upon that object. The next law explains how force equals acceleration. The third law talks about how if any action is created there is a equal and opposite reaction that appears. Each one of these laws…

Introduction A vessel floating in water reacts to its environment with motion. It has six degrees of freedom, three translational and three rotational. When the floating vessel is attached to appendages, which in this case is mooring lines and risers, these attached slender structures also have effect on how the vessel reacts to the environmental loads. This study is to understand how these effects are analysed. In this chapter, the solution of the uncoupled and coupled analysis is going to be…

Lab2.1 I. Throughout the day, list situations or events that initiate the stress responses. A. Source of stress- People I work with. B. Time and place- In the afternoons during lunch time in the break rooms with other workers. C. Level of perceived stress-2 moderate D. Thoughts and feelings about the stressor- The stressor of being in an environment that you do not always want to be in is something you have to be aware off. When on my quick and short breaks at work some times it’s easy to feel…

It begins with a couple of pedal strokes. Round and Round the wheels turn and your off like a shot. Sounds straightforward? Traveling across rural scenery. I love it. Edinburgh should be called the Happy Trails city once you get away out of the city there are a million of places to run, walk, hike or bike. I go mountain biking every Monday night with the club. For the first 5 minutes my muscles burn, it feels like I am dragging myself through mud and being stewed alive all at the same time. Then…

The main reason for this power loss is likely due to the slipping of the belt with respect to the driven pulley. This is because the two surfaces of the wire and pulley are not physically attached, but rather the transmission of force relies on the friction between the two surfaces. Therefore, under this scenario it can be considered that the wire was not effectively in contact with the pulley the whole time (it ‘slipped’) and so some power was wasted. This problem is largely reduced…

Introduction Sporting code of choice is Netball Netball is a sport played with a ball and two teams of seven players. Netball games are played on a rectangular court surface with two raised goal posts with rings on the top. The rings are used to shoot the ball in. Each player has a specific position to play on the court and certain players are restricted to a certain place. Each team has a Goal Shooter, Goal Attack, Wing Attack, Centre, Wing Defence, Goal Defence and Goal Keeper. A…

1.1 Power Flow Theory Power, as we know, consists of two components, active and reactive power. The total sum of active and reactive power is called as apparent power. 1.1.1 Active Power “Power is a measure of energy per unit time. Power therefore gives the rate of energy consumption or production. The units for power are generally watts (W). For example, the watt rating of an appliance gives the rate at which it uses energy. The total amount of energy consumed by this appliance is the wattage…

Figure (4.2): Failure pattern of cylinder specimen (CY1). Under pure axial compression loading for cube specimen (C1), the failure cracks generated are approximately parallel to the direction of load as shown in figure (4.3) with some cracks formed at an angle to the applied load. As a result, lateral shearing stress is produced in the cube specimen. The effect of this shear decrease towards the center of cubes; so these sides of the cube have near vertical cracks at the cube center.…

that impacts industries around the globe on a daily basis; millions of people depend on this company to be on time. During an external analysis of the companies PESTLE Framework, it was noted that there are six forces that impact the daily and future operations of this company. These forces are: political, economic, sociocultural, technological, legal and…
