Idols and Francis Bacon By: Bailey Gray Soc 101-099 TR 11:10 To Francis Bacon the four idols‚ tribe‚ cave‚ market place‚ and theater‚ beset the minds of men (Bacon). To him‚ the human race has four prejudices that haze our scientific thoughts: 1) Our perceptions are true and trust worthy‚2) Experience make us wise‚ 3) Language provides us to be superior beings‚ and 4) We believe previous scientific theories and philosophical assertions (Bacon). Because of these prejudices

= 300g 9.8 3. Explain the effect of mass on Hooke’s Law. Hooke’s Law states that the restoring force of a spring is directly proportional to a small displacement. Applying a mass to the end of the spring stretches it‚ changing the length from its original equilibrium position of rest‚ to a new (lower) equilibrium position. At this position‚ the vertical restoring force of the spring balances the weight and the downward pull of gravity is balanced by the upward pull of the spring

Centripetal force (from Latin centrum "center" and petere "to seek"[1]) is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: its direction is always orthogonal to the velocity of the body‚ toward the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path. Centripetal force is generally the cause of circular motion. In simple terms‚ centripetal force is defined as a force which keeps a body moving with a uniform speed along a circular path and is directed along the radius towards the centre

transcontinental plane flight‚ your coffee cup sits motionless on your tray. Are there forces acting on the cup? If so‚ how do they differ from the forces that would be acting on the cup if it sat on your kitchen table at home? Determine the Concept Yes‚ there are forces acting on it. They are the normal force of the table and the gravitational pull of Earth (weight). Because the cup is not accelerating relative to the ground‚ the forces are the same as those that would act on it if it was sitting on your table

Lesson: Date: Words: Michael Porter Five Forces Analysis Michael Porter’s Five forces framework as explained by Kotler and Keller (2011) as well as Proctor (2000‚ pg. 103) is an analysis method that involves analyzing a specific sector from five various perspectives in order to establish the nature of competition in the given sector. The five different forces in the framework consists of bargaining power of buyers‚ competitor rivalry‚
