Friction on a surface. Aim: To establish the relation between weight of a rectangular wooden block lying on a horizontal table and the minimum force required to just move it using a spring balance Materials required: A rectangular block of wood with a hook ‚ set of weights‚ strong thread and a spring balance. Theory: The force of friction acting on a block of wood is proportional to the normal reaction acting on the block. By the third law of motion‚ normal reaction is equal to the weight

what extent expectancy theory and equity theory can explain motivation at work. Motivation can be defined as a set of reasons which regulates ones behaviour. As observed the success of any organization depends largely on employee motivation. Motivated workforce leads to reduced absenteeism‚ staff turnover‚ greater efficiency leading to higher productivity. Various motivation theories by social scientists can be classified into process and content theories. Content theories concentrate on drives

This paper is to identify possible sources of intergenerational friction‚ and to describe how this differences could be managed in occupational setting. Today is the time when multiple generations are working side by side. Each generation has some distinctly different expectations and perceptions about what their working environment will provide and how they should behave as employees. Therefore‚ many organizations today are challenged by intergenerational issues they have never experience before

Introduction In recent years‚ much economic theory and research has looked at the phenomena of wage rigidity and involuntary unemployment1‚ and within the domain of labour economics much attention has been devoted to the phenomenon of inter-industry wage differentials. Many theories have sprung up to explain these phenomena‚ and one of these‚ Efficiency Wage Theory‚ has attempted to shed light on all three of them. In short‚ Efficiency Wage Theory states that the productivity of workers depends

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to determine: the coefficient of friction between a rubber stopper and a wooden ramp the coefficient of static friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp the coefficient of kinetic friction between a wooden block and a wooden ramp The design of this experiment was done by placing a rubber stopper / wooden block onto a wooden ramp and tilting the ramp at a certain degree to cause the stopper / block to move. The measurements of the vertical distance
