Solar Frontier Alternative Engergies Kentucky, LLC Envision Solar LineSolar Could High-Dive Jumpers Leap Over This Whole Pool? This is an older video from the World Championship in Dødsing. That’s about all I know except that it’s in Oslo, Norway. Watching this shows several very entertaining jumps. There are also a few jumps that look a little too close to the far edge of the pool. That makes the jump doubly scary. So, is it possible to run and jump from the high dive and hit the far end of the pool? Gathering Information After looking around on Google Maps, I found the location of the high dive. That’s about 16 meters from the end of the platform. Projectile Motion Yes, there is some guy jumping off a platform — in physics we would call this projectile motion even though he isn’t being “launched” like you might think. Since the only force is in the vertical direction, I can write the following two force equations. The acceleration in the horizontal (x-direction) would be zero and the acceleration in the vertical direction would be -g (or -9.8 m/s2). Since the x-velocity is constant, we can write the following:
Products Three advantages that make the difference: We offer quality from German production, our solar power systems achieve maximum yields even in hot locations, and the modules highly distinctive design of pinstriped anthracite enhances buildings and enables the modules to be unobtrusively integrated into the architecture.

Signet Solar - Clean Affordable Renewable Energy Motion Mountain - The Free Physics Textbook for Dowload The Large Hadron Collider The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. It first started up on 10 September 2008, and remains the latest addition to CERN’s accelerator complex. The LHC consists of a 27-kilometre ring of superconducting magnets with a number of accelerating structures to boost the energy of the particles along the way. Inside the accelerator, two high-energy particle beams travel at close to the speed of light before they are made to collide. Thousands of magnets of different varieties and sizes are used to direct the beams around the accelerator. All the controls for the accelerator, its services and technical infrastructure are housed under one roof at the CERN Control Centre. How many kilometres of cables are there on the LHC?

January 1, 2015. Preface For over a decade I have taught an introductory, undergraduate class, "Einstein for Everyone," at the University of Pittsburgh to anyone interested enough to walk through door. With each new offering of the course, I had the chance to find out what content worked and which of my ever so clever pedagogical inventions were failures. At the same time, my lecture notes have evolved. This text owes a lot to many. i i i
Physics Flash Animations We have been increasingly using Flash animations for illustrating Physics content. This page provides access to those animations which may be of general interest. The animations will appear in a separate window. The animations are sorted by category, and the file size of each animation is included in the listing. In addition, I have prepared a small tutorial in using Flash to do Physics animations. LInks to versions of these animations in other languages, other links, and license information appear towards the bottom of this page. The Animations There are 99 animations listed below. Other Languages and Links These animations have been translated into Catalan, Spanish and Basque: En aquest enllaç podeu trobar la versió al català de les animacions Flash de Física. Many animations have been translated into Greek by Vangelis Koltsakis. Most animations have been translated into Hungarian by Sandor Nagy, Eötvös Loránd University.

Physics To Go: Explore Physics on your own image credit: U.S. Air Force; image source; larger image Newton's 3rd Law What is the purpose of the small rotor on the back of this helicopter? In fact, it's needed because of Newton's third law--for every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction. The helicopter puts a force on the main rotor shaft to make it turn, and the rotor shaft puts an equal and opposite force back on the helicopter. This reaction force creates a torque that, by itself, would make the helicopter spin in the opposite direction as the rotor. (This feature was updated on September 22, 2013.) Torque Check out this PBS video to use the concept of torque to explain how one dancer can balance on top of the head of another--and on point!
