1. The United States Coast Guard (USCG) does not have a service wide physical readiness test (PRT). The USCG requires members only to meet physical fitness standards during specified training environments‚ operational qualifications‚ and while on weight probation. Currently the USCG uses weight standards as the sole unit of measure for health and well being. While weight management is a valuable part of health and wellness‚ its focus is more imaged-based rather than providing conclusive data. Implementation

GCSE Physics Coursework - Resistance of a Wire Coursework Resistance of a Wire Task To investigate how the resistance of a wire is affected by the length of the wire. Theory What is resistance? Electricity is conducted through a conductor‚ in this case wire‚ by means of free electrons. The number of free electrons depends on the material and more free electrons means a better conductor‚ i.e. it has less resistance. For example‚ gold has more free electrons than

My objective in this experiment is to investigate one of the factors that affect the resistance of a piece of wire. The factor I chose was length. Factors: There our four different things that affect the resistance of a wire: 1. The Length because the wire is thinner than the rest of the wires the electrons wood have more trouble going through for if the wire had the same width there would

Physics Coursework - Resistance of a Wire Coursework Introduction (Theory) In this piece of Coursework I am going to investigate the resistance in a piece of wire. Resistance is the force that slows down the flow of electrons; this can be due to electrons colliding. The total length of the wires will affect the amount of resistance. The longer the wire‚ the more resistance that there will be. This is also true for thickness of wire; the thinner the wire is the more resistance. Resistance

Illinois. He saw a wooden rail with nails sticking out and decided to use this to start his design of barbed wire. His wife’s garden needed protection and that started his invention process. One year later in 1874‚ the barbed wire fence was patented. Glidden became a millionaire with assets. His company‚ with partner Issac Ellwood‚ The Barb Fence Company made 10‚000 pounds of barbed wire the first year and 600‚000 pounds by 1875. When Glidden died‚ he was one of the richest people in America. Although

Petit: Sane Wire Walker What do you think when you imagine a man walking on a wire higher than 10 stories high? A French wire walker named Philippe Petit walked over many structures from Notre Dame to Sydney‚ Australia‚ to New York. Through the things he has done‚ people may think he is crazy. However‚ Petit and I think that there is nothing crazy about what he has done. I believe the people/society thinks he is crazy. They see this man up hundreds of feet walking across a wire over famous
