I do feel people feel people are more inclined to divert attention away from themselves in the general public. Said plainly; it is awkward to be in that position. I think most people genuinely believe they would "do the right thing" and are likely to be a proactive citizen in a bystander group. But when the moment comes‚ it really does take a confident and swift thinking individual to rise to the occasion

typically bring about rotary motion. The Laws of Motion form the foundation of dynamics. First Law of Motion An object will remain at rest or continue to move at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. F = net force If F = 0 ⇒ v = constant Third Law of Motion For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction. These two forces (action & reaction) act on different bodies. Freaction Faction = − Freaction Faction Second Law of Motion When a net external force acts on

Newton’s Second Law (Predicting Accelerations) Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to study the Newton’s second law and the behavior of objects for which all forces are not balanced. In this experiment‚ a small mass m will be connected to the dynamics cart by a string. The string will pass over a pulley at the table’s edge so that as the mass falls the cart will be accelerated over the table’s force. The cart will be released from rest and allowed to accelerate over a distance. Using a

Due Date: March 12‚ 2013 Introduction Hooke’s law states that force is directly proportional to the displacement of the spring that has been stretched or compressed from the equilibrium position. The force that takes place is referred to as a restoring force because it acts on an object to return it to a state of equilibrium. This is Hooke’s Law. It can be shown as: F = -kx In the first formula ---> F is the force of weight k is the spring constant x is the displacement In this
