Newton’s second law of physics dictates that acceleration is produced when a force acts on a mass. The greater the mass of the object‚ the greater the force needed to put the object in an accelerated motion. This relationship can be viewed in the formula: Force = mass (acceleration) The key to keeping the mousetrap car accelerating is to keep the forces acting upon it unbalanced. The force of the mousetrap car has to be larger than the force of friction working against the car. Because the force

Virtues in Engineering William F. May said of the expert: “He had better be virtuous. Few may be in a position to discredit him. The knowledge explosion is also an ignorance explosion; if knowledge is power‚ then ignorance is powerlessness” (Harris 30). In the context of engineering‚ this places engineers in a very special position. Because of this power‚ which few may ever possess‚ it becomes necessary for engineers to be virtuous or posses certain attributes for the welfare of the public
