On an episode of Stephen Fry in America‚ produced by Andre Singer‚ standing on a stage in a dimly lit room‚ surrounded by Houston’s elite‚ actor and comedian Stephen Fry speaks of the importance of the arts. “Oscar Wilde quite rightly said‚ ‘All art is useless’. And that may sound as if that means it’s something not worth supporting. But if you actually think about

worth. They have a lot of pressure from that‚ as well as peer pressure from their fellow performers. Not only do they have pressure from that‚ they have to worry about the very acts being preformed from playing with swords and fire to hanging from a wire hundreds of feet in the air. If their not focused on what they are doing‚ they can be killed in a instant. One of the popular acts they do is called sword swallowing. This is a very dangerous stunt were they put a razor sharp sword down their throat

Physics in Roller Coasters There is a lot of Physics in a roller coaster. It contains a lot of potential and kinetic energy‚ and also centripetal force. All of these factors will define how the roller coaster really works. As we all know‚ or some of us know‚ roller coasters doesn’t use engine to operate the ride. It depends on converting potential energy into kinetic energy. Cars will need a certain amount of pull or push to reach a certain peek of the track. Upon reaching the peak‚ the energy

Gabrino‚ Juan Miguel M. ENGPHY1‚ 1. As I observed while riding both the Dodgem and Bump n’ Splash the direction of the force when my friends bumped me was same with the direction where the car of my friends are headed. According to Newton’s second law‚ an object that experiences an unbalance force will accelerate in the direction of the unbalanced force. 2. While riding the wheel of fate while it is continuously moving I felt the greatest acceleration at the bottom of the Ferris wheel

SAMPLE PROBLEMS: 111-SET #1 VECTOR ADDITION‚ SUBTRACTION 01-1 1). A man is able to row a boat at 3 mph in still water. If he rows his boat pointed straight across a river with a current of 4 mph‚ what is his net velocity? If the river is 0.5 miles wide‚ at what point will he land on the other side? Solution: The first step in problem solving is to identify the problem type. In this problem we are asked for a ‘net velocity.’ Since velocities behave as vectors‚ then we have a vector addition
