Introduction to force01:25

Introduction to force

1.2K
Consider water flowing from a nozzle to a turbine vane. As the water hits the turbine vane, it exerts a force that causes it to move along the flow of direction. Force is an impact that changes an object's motion, shape, or orientation. Forces can be caused by physical contact, such as a push or pull, or through non-contact interactions, such as magnetic or gravitational forces. Force is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction, and is measured in newtons (N) in the SI unit...

Newton's First Law: Introduction

38.2K
Motion draws our attention. Motion itself can be beautiful, causing us to marvel at the forces needed to create spectacular sights, such as that of a dolphin jumping out of the water, the flight of a bird, or the orbit of a satellite. The study of motion is kinematics, but kinematics only describes the way objects move—their velocity and acceleration. Dynamics considers the forces that affect the motion of moving objects and systems. Newton's laws of motion are the foundation of...

An Introduction to Mechanics

7.9K
Humans have been making ships, shelters, pyramids, weapons, agricultural equipment, and many more items without recording the process or theory behind them for centuries. It would be challenging to document the evolution of mechanics from its origin to the present.
According to records, the history of mechanics starts with Aristotle (384–322 BC). He related mechanics to physical theory, aiming for a universal synthesis.
Newton defined mechanics as the branch of physical science that...

Introduction to Statistics

65.2K
The science of statistics involves collecting, analyzing, interpreting, and presenting data. The method of collecting, organizing, and summarizing data is called descriptive statistics. The systematic method of drawing inferences from the sample data and predicting unknown characteristics of a population is called inferential statistics.
In statistics, the collection of individuals or objects under study is called population. The idea of sampling is to select a portion of the larger population...

Introduction to Actin01:26

Introduction to Actin

6.7K
Actin is a highly conserved cytoskeletal protein found abundantly in eukaryotic cells. It constitutes 10% weight of the total cellular protein in muscle cells, while in non-muscle cells, it is lower and makes up around 1–5 percent of the total cell protein. Actin found in the unicellular amoebae and complex multicellular animals is around 80% similar, demonstrating their conservation over a billion years of evolution.  Actin coding genes are conserved within species and across...

Introduction to the Cytoskeleton

35.4K
Overview of the Cytoskeleton
The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments present within the cell, having three distinct filaments ̶   microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. Each has characteristic features that distinguish them, including the dynamics of their assembly and disassembly, mechanical properties, polarity, and the type of molecular motors associated with them. Earlier, they were thought to be present only in eukaryotic cells; however, their...

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Health
    • Maternal-Fetal Medicine
    • Psychology of Childbirth

    Background:

    • Labor and delivery experiences encompass a wide range of emotions, from joy to trauma.
    • Patient and family engagement are crucial during the emotionally charged period of childbirth.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore personal narratives of labor and delivery.
    • To provide insights for clinicians on enhancing patient and family engagement.
    • To identify factors that may reduce postpartum mood disorders and improve health outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Collection of twelve personal narratives on labor and delivery experiences.
    • Inclusion of three expert commentaries on the presented narratives.

    Main Results:

    • Narratives detail the joys, challenges, and potential trauma of childbirth.
    • Commentaries offer perspectives on patient engagement and emotional support during birth.

    Conclusions:

    • Facilitating patient and family engagement can positively impact birth experiences.
    • Recognizing and addressing parental distress during complications may improve maternal and infant health.
    • Supporting emotional well-being during childbirth is linked to reduced postpartum mood disorders.
