Abstract:
This article memorializes M. Brewster Smith (1919-2012), one of the major champions of humanistic psychology. Smith served psychology in many capacities throughout his career. For the American Psychological Association (APA), not only was he the organization's president (1978-1979), as well as president of the American Psychological Foundation (1983-1984), but he was also a member of APA's Board of Directors for five separate terms spanning a period of three decades. Further highlights of Smith's career and professional contributions are noted.

Beams
Based on geometry, beams can be straight, tapered, or curved. Straight beams are the most common type and have a constant cross-section throughout their length. Tapered beams, on the other hand, have a varying cross-section along...
Mass Moment of Inertia: Problem Solving
The axle can be approximated to a solid cylinder with longitudinal and perpendicular axes. Initially, a thin disc is considered parallel to the circular face of the cylinder.
Newton's Law of Motion
The first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will continue to move at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an external force.
Newton's Law of Gravitational Attraction
Newton's law of gravitational attraction is a fundamental law of physics that governs the attraction between objects. It states that the magnitude of the gravitational force between any two objects is proportional to their masses and inversely proportional...
