Inertia

Faster-than-light travel (FTL) refers to matter travelling at a faster speed than light (c). In a vacuum, this speed is known as 2.998 x 108 meters per seconds. Based on the Theory of Relativity, it is known that objects with a mass cannot exceed the speed of light as they require infinite energy due to the increasing amounts of energy required for continuous acceleration (PhysicsLink, 2017). However, matters without mass, such as photons, can reach this speed (PhysicsLink, 2017). Nevertheless,…

Technology development has presented challenges and opportunities to managers. Nokia Corporation and Apple Inc., both companies involved in the mobile phones manufacturing, have been showing examples of ineffective and effective management, respectively. Nokia, a historical leader on mobile phones manufacturing, has lost its market share mainly to Apple. Nokia’s fail and Apple’s success can be analysed considering Fayol’s principles of management – planning, leading, controlling and organising…

substantially from the global mean value,” this concerning statement suggests that for future predictions of Earth’s temperature, the temperature would greatly change compared to what the global mean value is. He goes on to say, “(b)ecause of the thermal inertia of the oceans, only 50-90% of the eventual equilibrium temperature change would have been realized by 2100 and temperature would continue to increase beyond 2100, even if concentrations of greenhouse gases were stabilized by that…

Blood Flow as a Casson Fluid 1 THE PROBELM This problem was chosen from Problems for Biomedical Fluid Mechanics and Transport Phenomena section 8, because of my interest in biomedical engineering. How the body works on the most fundamental chemical and physical levels is something that has always fascinated me. This problem, and others in the section on blood flow, offered me a chance to delve deeper into how the body works as well as transport phenomena. The problem gave us a solved velocity…

24 The distinctive quality of the KBS, compared to other posterior chain exercises, is “inertia and centrifugal forces” causing a posterior shear force on the lumbar vertebrae differing to the anterior shear forces experienced during the above mentioned posterior exercises. 24, 86 The contraction-relaxation cycles of the KBS are thought to act…

Throughout history, the relation of individuals to society and vice versa has been a puzzling conundrum. Humans generally tend to understand the world as through an individualistic outlook with respect to their own experiences and lives. However, sociologists such as C. Wright Mills and Allan Johnson disagree and relate the importance of a “sociological imagination.” According to Mills, the sociological imagination is “a quality of mind” that allows its possessor to use information and develop…

Erik Erikson was a German born American developmental psychologist. He is well known for his theory on psychosocial development of human beings. Erikson`s theory includes eight stages of psychosocial development. The first stage is Trust vs. Mistrust. This stage is the infancy stage where the age is from first born to about 1 and a half years old. The basic virtue of this stage would be hope and the pathology of this stage is withdrawal. During this stage, the young infant is unsure of its…

ABSTRACT India with the Population of around 1.31 billion is the second largest market in the world in terms of customer after China. With many well-established domestic and international market players giving an intense competition to each other in the FMCG space for supremacy, Patanjali Ayurveda has not only survived but has also rose among the ranks of competition with the help of various qualities such as innovation, alternate marketing techniques and with a goal of providing good quality…

dark or shaded "valley" (or abyss) of physical weakness, mental depression, broken column and glass, famine and solitude. A Hollow Man is naturally resident far from the city centre where a lover named Prufrock has lately acquired prominence for his inertia. The…

2012 and Into the Wild are two films that have the same theme to show the interaction between humans and nature. These films cannot entirely receive the credit of being environmentally and ecologically conscious, but analytically, it can teach an individual, a human, a few things about nature. Moreover, they are different in the message being conveyed, the way nature reacts to human interactions, and how nature is generally portrayed. Overall, 2012 and Into the Wild are two films that carry…
