What Is It? The Porter five force analysis was formed by Michael E. Porter of Harvard Business School in the year 1979‚ this model identifies and analyses 5 competitive forces that shape every industry‚ and helps determine an industry’s weaknesses and strengths. This analysis shows the overall attractiveness of an industry meaning how profitable it is. For example an unattractive industry would be the pure or perfect competition‚ because all profits turn to normal profit in the long run which means

Physics notes Force is an agent which produces or tends to produce motion in an object‚ stops or tends to stop ‚ motion of an object Newton’s 1st law of motion: If an object is at rest‚ will remain at rest until or unless an external force act on it. If an object is in motion ‚ it continues its motion until or unless an external force act on it Newton’s 1st law of motion is also called first law of inertia. Inertia: The tendency of an object to resist any change in its state of motion

Science Notes: Fundamental Forces of Nature All forces in nature may be classified into four types. The gravitational force holds together the universe at large‚ plus the atmosphere‚ water‚ and us to the planet Earth. The electromagnetic force governs atomic level phenomena‚ binding electrons to atoms‚ and atoms to one another to form molecules and compounds. The strong nuclear force holds the nucleus together. The fourth force‚ the weak nuclear force‚ is responsible for certain types of nuclear

unbalanced force. In both cases‚ the item has an acceleration of zero. Inertia is not a force‚ but rather a resistance to a change in velocity. In other words‚ the object wants to stay put or stay constant‚ and inertia is what happens when a force gives it acceleration. An example of inertia in the physical world happens while riding in a car. The driver turns the car left‚ but his body leans to the right during the turn. Since the driver has inertia‚ his body is resisting the change in velocity
