MEMBERS: Kaan,Harry The aim of the investigation is to find the amount of force required to move the mouse trap with the stored potential energy in the mouse trap arm. We were giving a bag of materials including things like plastic body ,wheels, string, straws and dowle. We made a prototype which we had to use the materials giving to us, then we made 3 different changes. Through theses changes we are trying to overcome forces including gravity, drag and friction to try to make it more energy efficient

reality, A simple roller coaster ride inhibits numerous, complex forces and energy to ensure a safe and comfortable ride. My experiment looks into the effects of these elements and tests the limits of factors such as inertia and gravity. Inertia Inertia was the subject of Newton’s First Law of motion, and states that every object will continue in its state of rest or motion in a straight line, unless it is compelled to change by outside forces acting upon it. Simpler, Inertia describes the tendency of

Stressors of Military Families Stressors are simply defined by Webster’s Dictionary: as something that makes you worried or anxious: or something that causes stress. Being apart of a military family for over the past twenty-one years, I can definitely relate to common stressors that military families may encounter. There are so many dynamics that are involved with having a family member who is enlisted in the military no matter what branch of service they serve in. In a military environment, circumstances

(CCDRs) or Joint Force Commanders (JFCs) to either overcome or exploit as they seek to position their forces in a manner advantageous to the achievement of national or theater objectives. To effectively apply military power commanders must fully understand the complexities associated with multinational and coalition operations. The challenges of multinational operations include attaining unified action, establishing coherent command structures, and

weightlessness? Well guess what you can now with my launchetron 3000!. You too can freefall from over 100 feet in the air! With speeds of over 48 mph you'll be shot through the skies accelerating through the air! Not only that you’ll be feeling negative G-forces that's right you will be flying through the air without the effects of gravity that's right none of that pesky gravity weighing you down! This ride is very special it super speedy reaching speeds of over 48 mph that's right it’s faster than your mother

It is seen that aggression comes from a variety of sources, and it is important to understand where these sources are derived from. Therefore sports stressors allow us to understand what causes the athlete to become frustrated, which can lead to aggression and reduced productivity. In the player's career, they will come across a number of high-pressure situations where they will have to cope with a lot of stress. These can range from personal stress, such as anxiety and anxiety in situational stressors

assigned tasks, confidence, cheerfulness, and discipline” (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, William Morris Editor, 9th Printing). Factors that affect officer morale come from inside the department as well as from outside forces. Community relations can either help or hinder officer morale. Two types of stress that law enforcement face are organizational and operational. Organizational stress comes from within one’s own organization or place of employment. Some

WORKSHEET 3 WORK AND POWER Key Concepts: WORK (W) – is the PRODUCT of the net FORCE (F) applied and the DISTANCE (d) it travels in the direction of Force. In equation WORK = force x distance , (W = Fd) POWER (P) – is the RATE (t) of the doing WORK (W). The FASTER the WORK is done, the GREATER the POWER. In equation: Power (P) = WORK (W) / time (t) * Amount of power does not show the amount of work done. It just gives the time that work requires. WATTS - unit
