    Applications of Integration to Find Centers of Mass

    Rotational equilibrium provides a natural framework for defining the center of mass of a system. For a plank balanced on a pivot with two unequal masses, equilibrium is achieved when the net torque about the pivot is zero. Torque is defined as the product of a force and its perpendicular distance from the pivot. When the torques due to all forces cancel, the pivot coincides with the center of mass of the system.For a system composed of several discrete point masses, the center of mass lies at...

    Faraday Disk Dynamo01:23

    Faraday Disk Dynamo

    A Faraday disk dynamo is a DC generator, producing an emf that is constant in time. It consists of a conducting disk that rotates with a constant angular velocity in the magnetic field, perpendicular to the disk's plane. The rotation of the disk causes a change in magnetic flux, which induces an emf, causing opposite charges to develop on the rim and in the center of the disk. The polarity of the induced emf can be determined by the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of the...

    Applications of the Ideal Gas Law: Molar Mass, Density, and Volume03:43

    Applications of the Ideal Gas Law: Molar Mass, Density, and Volume

    The volume occupied by one mole of a substance is its molar volume. The ideal gas law, PV = nRT,  suggests that the volume of a given quantity of gas and the number of moles in a given volume of gas vary with changes in pressure and temperature. At standard temperature and pressure, or STP (273.15 K and 1 atm), one mole of an ideal gas (regardless of its identity) has a volume of about 22.4 L — this is referred to as the standard molar volume.

    The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

    According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

    Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

    Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...
