What effects can forces have on objects?
The Effects of Forces. A force acting on an object may cause the object to change shape, to start moving, to stop moving, to accelerate or decelerate. When two objects interact with each other they exert a force on each other, the forces are equal in size but opposite in direction.
List ways a force can change the motion of an object.
Slow Down
Speed Up
Change DIrection
Twist

What is the difference between a contact and non-contact force?
Lynne, a Jewish Civil Right worker, appears in the scene and catches Truman’s attention. Meridian, who is pregnant, opts for abortion and has her tubes tied and gradually falls very sick. Truman and Lynne shift to Mississippi and lead a happy life .There is another flashback when Lynne recalls how Tommy Odds, a black man raped her. Truman doesn’t admit the truth and finally move back to Meridian. The final section of the novel ends with Truman vowing to work for the Revolution. Walker’s path of spiritual healing is guided by a philosophy combining elements of Native American and Afro-American folk beliefs and customs associated with ecology, animal rights, womanism and paganism. She has expressed her often contesting beliefs in an interview
A '''use of force continuum''' is a standard that affords law enforcement officials & security officers (police, probation, or corrections) with guidelines as to how much use of force may be used against a repelling subject in a given situation. In certain ways it is similar to the military’s escalation of force. The reason of these models is to clarify, both for officers and citizens, the complex subject of use of force by law officers. They are often vital parts of law enforcement agencies' use of force policies. Although various agencies have developed different models of the continuum, there is no universal standard model (Stetser, 2001, p. 36)
The current use of force continuum that many deploy can actually confuse some officers; this use of force continuum adheres to the one plus one theory. This states that officers may use force equal to the level of resistance being met or they may go up one level if they can articulate that they either tried the equal level, which failed, or we know the equal level would be ineffective. Below is the current model that many departments follow:
I thought it would be fun to fling things like raw eggs and rocks with a catapult. Guess
The use of force is inevitable in police work. In many situations the lives of officers or civilians can be taken by not using force when necessary or using it improperly. Many factors come into play when an officer decides to use force. This includes is the use of force justified, has the officer been properly trained to use force, and will the department be held liable if the force is used improperly?
applies force includes the case of applying heat, light, electrical force, gas, odour, or any other substance or thing whatever if applied in such a degree as to cause injury or personal
“Nonlethal weapons can be seen as shooting-avoidance tools because these weapons can control unarmed but resisting suspects early in a confrontation, before they have the opportunity to become armed and attack an officer.” (Dempsey & Forst, 2016, p.478). These tools are a necessity for that reason alone. When an ever officer arrives on a scene no matter the call, that officer has to establish themselves as the one in control of the situation. A lot of the times an officer is alone, and needs to be proficient with his or her ability to defend themselves and the general public. Not every situation calls for a use of force incident, and not every use of force incident should be a deadly force incident. That is why the baton, OC spray, taser, and hands on techniques in order to gain compliance are very important to know and have.
Police are often criticized for being a reactionary force, how can that reality and perception be turned around to a proactive force?
Men and women who lived in Norway during the 1800’s both were restricted to specific roles in and outside of the household. However, rarely in the 1800’s did Victorian men and women share the same responsibilities. If they did, you may have seen the “women working alongside husbands and brothers in the family business” (Hughes, Gender roles in the 19th century). This makes women seem as if they are compared to men as “physically weaker” during the time period of the Victorian era (Hughes, Gender roles in 19th century). Also, this demonstrates how women supported men and built them up so that men could fully use all of their capabilities to be successful at their jobs. Without this supporting system underlying the men, their businesses may have
Excessive force is the amount of exceeding ordinary force (Ederheimer, Fridell, 2005). The excessive use of force is an unreasonable, the reasonableness resolute by the fact, whether a careful law enforcement officer would have used this much of force in the same circumstances. An excessive amount of force can extent from a severe man handling during an arrest that seems or is unnecessary to a lot of non-lethal force. The use of non-lethal can be considered excessive, the use of tasers, chemical spray, bean bags or gun, are over used to resolve a problem (McDonald, 2003). Since they are non-lethal they can be seen as reasonable force. However amount of force a police officer uses does not solely depend on himself but his or her circumspection.
Deadly or use of force is power that a man utilizes bringing on, or that a man knows or ought to know would make a considerable danger of creating, passing or genuine substantial mischief or harm. In many wards, the utilization deadly force is advocated just under states of compelling need if all else fails, when every single lesser mean have fizzled or can 't sensibly be utilized. In the United States, the utilization of use of force is regularly allowed to law requirement officers when the individual or individuals being referred to are accepted to be an impending threat to individuals around them. For instance, an outfitted man parading a gun in a shopping center without respect to the security of people around him, and declining or being unwilling to arrange, would warrant use of force, as a way to ensure others. The utilization of deadly or use of force is likewise approved when a man represents a huge danger to a law authorization officer, as a rule when the officer is at danger of genuine real harm or passing.
One issue facing law enforcement agencies is the use of force. Nonetheless, I will make use of actual scenarios to explain the levels of force used in accordance to use-of-force continuum guidelines.
It is a very interesting journal to read this week, "Patients and Nurses: A Powerful force", by Brown and Malone (2007). Time has changed and the adage that knowledge is power will not be automatically work. Which means that although a person has enough knowledge/idea, he/she will not be able to reach their goal or submit the idea without a hard work. The knowledge/idea has to put in action to work in order to create a power (p.2-3). There are ways that nurses can use their clinical power to convince the legislature, organizations, and the public support and acquire safe staffing, such as Maryland and Gonzalez (2012) claimed that "Registered nurses can impact public policy through advocacy" (p.2). Nurses should be an advocate for their patients because they communicate with them and create patient nurse relationship. As an advocate for the patient nurse should be able to persuade the legislator to achieve the goal. If the nurse believe that safe staffing is important, nurses have to collect evidence/data to support the issue and bring it this issue by joining a political party and elect a candidate who will support the nursing current issues and bring it to them to the legislative. Furthermore, Bethany Hall-Long (n.d.) stated that she started her political field from being a volunteer. She feels
The forces that are involve with the experiments are basically focused on the concurrent forces. The experiment also allows us to develop the condition of balancing or arranging the angles both sides on a force table. This laboratory experiment allows us to take the mathematical abstraction of a vector to make it tangible as possible. This experiment will look into two ways of
It provides a map to moral reasoning and motivates us to work on morality. Other theories simply state what to do when faced with a moral dilemma. Virtue ethics force the individual to look inward and focus on self-improvement. In short, virtue ethics addresses the role of character and addresses the question of what makes a good human being. The idea being that people can train themselves to be good human beings, and therefore moral dilemmas can be solved more easily.
