    Applications of Physics in Everyday Life By Steve Johnson‚ eHow Contributor Even walking manipulates physics‚ allowing people to proceed in a state of "constant falling." Physics extends well into people’s everyday lives -- imprisoning people within its forces. From each step a person takes to the evolution of the body‚ physics has several long-term as well as short-term effects and uses. For everyday living‚ many technologies have even exploited the rules of physics. 1. Simple Mechanical

    Lab Report: DRILLING FLUID (MUD) DENSITY Objective: The aim of this experiment is to determine the mud density‚ specific gravity and hydrostatic pressure gradient for water-based-mud‚ WBM (Drilling fluid) using the OFITE mud balance. Theory: Drilling fluids are used during the drilling of boreholes‚ either for oil wells or water boles holes. One of the major functions of a drilling fluid includes providing hydrostatic pressure to prevent formation fluids from entering the wellbore. To ensure

    Wakeboarding     Wakeboarding was invented by a San Diego surfer named Tony Finn. Tony began a wakeboard revolution in 1985 when he developed his cross between a water ski and a surfboard. Then‚ the owner of H.O. Sports‚ a leading water ski manufacturer took interest in advancing it by introducing the first compression-molded-neutral-buoyancy wakeboard. He called it the Hyperlite. This wakeboard led to the growth of the marketplace making wakeboards more accessible to everyone. How a Wakeboard Works
