Waves are mainly known for their way of transferring energy from one place to another without transferring any matter.Transverse and longitudinal are waves in which can be related to one another in some kind of way. A transverse wave is a wave in which vibrates perpendicular to the direction of the waves motion. As a transverse wave travels through a medium‚ the individual particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave travel. They may occur in a string‚ in the surface of

Recognition and Performance: A Field Experiment∗ Christiane Bradler† Robert Dur‡ Susanne Neckermann§ Arjan Non¶ ‚ ‚ ‚ January 2013 Abstract This paper reports the results from a natural field experiment designed to investigate the causal effect of public recognition on employee performance. More than 300 employees worked on a three-hour data-entry task‚ where we randomized the unannounced provision of recognition after two hours of work. We find that recognition increases subsequent performance substantially

Unit 4 - Theories and Principles of Planning and Enabling Learning The purpose of this assignment is to establish the theories and principles of planning and enabling learning as applicable to my teaching. I teach at a Further Education college in North West Leicestershire‚ where I teach a group of eleven mature students. As a group they are self funding on the course and the full cost is recovered from them with the exception of one‚ who is an apprentice and is therefore funded through his apprenticeship

Theory of Longitudinal Static Stability Stick Fixed Stability (tailless aircraft) An aircraft that has elevons (combined ailerons and elevators) e.g.‚ Concorde is governed by slightly different equations. The effect of the tab angle is usually ignored as most tailless aircraft have powered controls and so no tabs. The lift equation therefore becomes Moments about the cg give us: For TRIM‚ the elevon angle to trim is [pic] For STABILITY it is clear that the aerodynamic
