Torques equilibrium‚ and center of gravity Introduction Torque is a quantitative measure of the tendency of a force to cause or change the rotational motion of a rigid body. A torque is the result of force acting at a distance from an axis of rotation. An essential thing to keep in mind is that the magnitude of the torque is equal to the product of the forces perpendicular distance and magnitude. Theory The magnitude of the torque (t) is found from the product of the force F and the

Arjun Pahwa Math Research Paper The Application of the Nash Equilibrium in Game Theory to Microeconomics ! One of the most challenging problems a business owner comes across is the amount of a certain item he or she should stock and the price at which to sell it. Many factors play into finding this appropriate price. These include the cost of stocking the item‚ the projected demand‚ and what the competition is pricing the same item at. The latter of the three factors is considered to be the most

Institutional Equilibrium in Redistribution Systems Petr Wawrosz 1. Introduction Contemporary economic theories recognize a row of factors influencing human behaviour; material factors like precious resources or available technologies are not the only ones‚ various standards (rules)‚ limitations‚ etc. also belong among these factors defining which behaviour is allowed or forbidden‚ i.e. which behaviour is desirable (right) and which is not. Institutional economics that focuses on the issues

1. Briefly explain the following: a. Chemical equilibrium- Chemical equilibrium is the state of a reaction when the concentrations of the reactants and products are no longer changing and remain constant. The forward reaction proceeds at the same rate as the reverse reactions making them equal. This type of equilibrium is also named dynamic equilibrium or a dynamic process. When a reaction has reached its chemical equilibrium‚ the constant K value will remain constant unless the temperature changes

What Factors Affect Chemical Equilibrium? Introduction: In investigation 14‚ “What Factors Affect Chemical Equilibrium?”‚ the purpose was to find out which reagents caused a change in the chemical equilibrium. A deep red color was formed when Iron Nitrate [Fe(NO3)3 (aq)] was mixed with water and Ammonium Thiocyanate [NH4NCS (aq)]. The product of these two reactants was Iron Thiocyanate(FeNCS). After different trials of mixing the given reagents

1. Introduction When we say equilibrium‚ it is a state of balance. It is a condition where there is no change in the state of motion of a body. Equilibrium also may be at rest or moving within a constant velocity. A simple mechanical body is said to be in equilibrium if no part of it is accelerating‚ unless it is disturbed by an outside force. Two conditions for equilibrium are that the net force acting on the object is zero‚ and the net torque acting on the object is zero. Thus‚ the following objectives
