    still remains an exceptionally valuable tool for law enforcement and investigators today. To start‚ fingerprints are incredibly unique. They are patterns that are created by friction ridges and furrows and they are located on the pads of the fingers and thumbs. The difference between friction ridges and furrows is that friction ridges are raised up while furrows are recessed. Also‚ prints on your palms‚ toes and feet are also distinctive and can be important‚ but are not typically used

Many of the physics of twirling is center of gravity‚ friction‚ momentum‚ torque‚ Newton’s Laws of motion‚ force‚ and speed. The center of gravity is the average point where the weight of a body may act. In twirling the center of gravity in a body is the belly button. If the baton is tossed to the left

    top of a ten-story building‚ she will answer the question by assuming that the marble falls in a vacuum. Of course‚ this assumption is false. In fact‚ the building is surrounded by air‚ which exerts friction on the falling marble and slows it down. Yet the physicist will correctly point out that friction on the marble is so small that its effect is negligible. Assuming the marble falls in a vacuum greatly simplifies the problem without substantially affecting the answer. Economists make assumptions
