Glossary Physics (I-Introduction)
1 Glossary Physics (I-introduction) - Efficiency: The percent of the work put into a machine that is converted into useful work output; = work done / energy used [-]. = eta In machines: The work output of any machine cannot exceed the work input (<=100%); in an ideal machine, where no energy is transformed into heat: work(input) = work(output), =100%. Energy: The property of a system that enables it to do work. Conservation o. E.: Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it may be transformed from one form into another, but the total amount of energy never changes. Equilibrium: The state of an object when not acted upon by a net force or net torque; an object in equilibrium may be at rest or moving at uniform velocity - not accelerating. Mechanical E.: The state of an object or system of objects for which any impressed forces cancels to zero and no acceleration occurs. Dynamic E.: Object is moving without experiencing acceleration. Static E.: Object is at rest.F Force: The influence that can cause an object to be accelerated or retarded; is always in the direction of the net force, hence a vector quantity; the four elementary forces are: Electromagnetic F.: Is an attraction or repulsion G, gravit. const.6.672E-11[Nm2/kg2] between electric charges: d, distance [m] 2 2 2 2 F = 1/(40) (q1q2/d ) [(CC/m )(Nm /C )] = [N] m,M, mass [kg] Gravitational F.: Is a mutual attraction between all masses: q, charge [As] [C] 2 2 2 2 F = GmM/d [Nm /kg kg 1/m ] = [N] 0, dielectric constant Strong F.: (nuclear force) Acts within the nuclei of atoms: 8.854E-12 [C2/Nm2] [F/m] 2 2 2 2 2 F = 1/(40) (e /d ) [(CC/m )(Nm /C )] = [N] , 3.14 [-] Weak F.: Manifests itself in special reactions among elementary e, 1.60210 E-19 [As] [C] particles, such as the reaction that occur in radioactive decay. -

Forces and Motion
Forces and Motion Forces and motion are very important. You may not know but forces are used in everyday life for example: walking, pushing and pulling. Forces cause things to move. Motion is simply a movement but it needs a force to move. There are two types of forces contact force and non-contact force. Contact force is simply two interacting objects touching for example: throwing a ball. Non-contact force is when two objects are not touching are not touching like the moon and the earth ocean Force Firstly, force is just a technical word push or pull. If you push or pull on an object you are applying a force. Secondly, forces make things move or change their motion. There are so many types of forces here are just a few, gravity and magnetism. Different Forces There are two types of forces. Firstly, there is contact force. This is when two interacting objects are physically touching, for example: throwing a ball, when you throw a ball you use friction to push the pall out of your hands. Secondly, the next force is at a distance force. It is when two interacting objects not touching each other like for example: magnets and a paper clip and the moons gravity and the earth ocean. This occurring because of the gravity and magnetism Contact force Contact force is when you are needing to physically touch another object to allow it to move. There are 4 types of contact forces. Firstly normal force is when nothing is occurring, for example: a book on a table. -

Consider the motion of a uniform disk rotat ing about a fixed axis passing through its center of gravity C perpendicular to the face of the disk, as shown in Figure 11-1. The motion of this disk may be de scribed in terms of the motions of each of its individual particles, but a better way to describe the motion is in terms of the angle through which the disk rotates. -
On the History of the Radiation Reaction1 Kirk T
On the History of the Radiation Reaction1 Kirk T. McDonald Joseph Henry Laboratories, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544 (May 6, 2017; updated March 18, 2020) 1 Introduction Apparently, Kepler considered the pointing of comets’ tails away from the Sun as evidence for radiation pressure of light [2].2 Following Newton’s third law (see p. 83 of [3]), one might suppose there to be a reaction of the comet back on the incident light. However, this theme lay largely dormant until Poincar´e (1891) [37, 41] and Planck (1896) [46] discussed the effect of “radiation damping” on an oscillating electric charge that emits electromagnetic radiation. Already in 1892, Lorentz [38] had considered the self force on an extended, accelerated charge e, finding that for low velocity v this force has the approximate form (in Gaussian units, where c is the speed of light in vacuum), independent of the radius of the charge, 3e2 d2v 2e2v¨ F = = . (v c). (1) self 3c3 dt2 3c3 Lorentz made no connection at the time between this force and radiation, which connection rather was first made by Planck [46], who considered that there should be a damping force on an accelerated charge in reaction to its radiation, and by a clever transformation arrived at a “radiation-damping” force identical to eq. (1). Today, Lorentz is often credited with identifying eq. (1) as the “radiation-reaction force”, and the contribution of Planck is seldom acknowledged. This note attempts to review the history of thoughts on the “radiation reaction”, which seems to be in conflict with the brief discussions in many papers and “textbooks”.3 2 What is “Radiation”? The “radiation reaction” would seem to be a reaction to “radiation”, but the concept of “radiation” is remarkably poorly defined in the literature. -
Forces Different Types of Forces
Forces and motion are a part of your everyday life for example pushing a trolley, a horse pulling a rope, speed and acceleration. Force and motion causes objects to move but also to stay still. Motion is simply a movement but needs a force to move. There are 2 types of forces, contact forces and act at a distance force. Forces Every day you are using forces. Force is basically push and pull. When you push and pull you are applying a force to an object. If you are Appling force to an object you are changing the objects motion. For an example when a ball is coming your way and then you push it away. The motion of the ball is changed because you applied a force. Different Types of Forces There are more forces than push or pull. Scientists group all these forces into two groups. The first group is contact forces, contact forces are forces when 2 objects are physically interacting with each other by touching. The second group is act at a distance force, act at a distance force is when 2 objects that are interacting with each other but not physically touching. Contact Forces There are different types of contact forces like normal Force, spring force, applied force and tension force. Normal force is when nothing is happening like a book lying on a table because gravity is pulling it down. Another contact force is spring force, spring force is created by a compressed or stretched spring that could push or pull. Applied force is when someone is applying a force to an object, for example a horse pulling a rope or a boy throwing a snow ball. -

Pierre Simon Laplace - Biography Paper
Pierre Simon Laplace - Biography Paper MATH 4010 Melissa R. Moore University of Colorado- Denver April 1, 2008 2 Many people contributed to the scientific fields of mathematics, physics, chemistry and astronomy. According to Gillispie (1997), Pierre Simon Laplace was the most influential scientist in all history, (p.vii). Laplace helped form the modern scientific disciplines. His techniques are used diligently by engineers, mathematicians and physicists. His diverse collection of work ranged in all fields but began in mathematics. Laplace was born in Normandy in 1749. His father, Pierre, was a syndic of a parish and his mother, Marie-Anne, was from a family of farmers. Many accounts refer to Laplace as a peasant. While it was not exactly known the profession of his Uncle Louis, priest, mathematician or teacher, speculations implied he was an educated man. In 1756, Laplace enrolled at the Beaumont-en-Auge, a secondary school run the Benedictine order. He studied there until the age of sixteen. The nest step of education led to either the army or the church. His father intended him for ecclesiastical vocation, according to Gillispie (1997 p.3). In 1766, Laplace went to the University of Caen to begin preparation for a career in the church, according to Katz (1998 p.609). Cristophe Gadbled and Pierre Le Canu taught Laplace mathematics, which in turn showed him his talents. In 1768, Laplace left for Paris to pursue mathematics further. Le Canu gave Laplace a letter of recommendation to d’Alembert, according to Gillispie (1997 p.3). Allegedly d’Alembert gave Laplace a problem which he solved immediately. -

Furthermore, my thanks goes to Rodrigo Moreno, Jan H¨ornfeldt, Jonathan Munkhammar and Ola Eiken for proof-reading and general feedback on the report and Elena Gutierrez Farewik, for being a link towards the musculoskeletal software company whenever the licence struggled. Lastly, I would like to thank all people at the Department of Environmental Physiology, for making me feel welcome and showing interest in my work. Abstract When performing a biomechanical analysis of human movement, knowledge about the ground reaction force (GRF) is necessary to compute forces and moments within joints. This is important when analysing a movement and its effect on the human body. To obtain knowledge about the GRF, the gold standard is to use force plates which directly measure all three components of the GRF (mediolateral, anteroposterior and normal). However, force plates are heavy, clunky and expensive, setting constraints on possible experimental setups, which make it desirable to exclude them and instead use a predictive method to obtain the full GRF. Several predictive methods exist. The node model is a GRF predictive method included in a musculoskeletal modeling software. -

GEOPHYSICS (08/430/0012) THE EARTH'S GRAVITY FIELD Newton's law of gravitation is: ¯ GMm F = r2 11 2 2 1 3 2 where the Gravitational Constant G = 6:673 10− Nm kg− (kg− m s− ). ¢ The field strength of the Earth's gravitational field is defined as the gravitational force acting on unit mass. From Newton's third¯ law of mechanics, F = ma, it follows that gravitational force per unit mass = gravitational acceleration g. g is approximately 9:8m/s2 at the surface of the Earth. A related concept is gravitational potential: the gravitational potential V at a point P is the work done against gravity in ¯ P bringing unit mass from infinity to P.
