Variation of frictional force with applied force
Imagine the following situation. A heavy crate is resting on the floor in a warehouse. You push it horizontally with a steady force, but it does not move. That is because the force that you apply is balanced by a frictional force exerted horizontally on the bottom of the crate by the floo..

When we apply the force the door turns on its hinges. Thus a turning effect is produced when we try to open the door. Have you ever tried to do so by applying the force near the hinge? In the first case, we are able to open the door with ease. In the second case, we have to ..

Introduction - Physical world and Measurement
Physics is sometimes called as 'science of measurement'. The acceleration produced by a force for the motion of a body can be known by measuring the magnitude of applied force and mass of the body. Similarly, the distance of a stone covered, when thrown horizontally, can be meas..
Newton's Second Law of Motion
The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction in which the force is applied..
Electronic Brakes
Eddy currents can brake the motion of the train too. A metal drum is attached to the train. To apply brakes a strong magnetic field is applied across the drum. The eddy currents set up in the drum in a direction as to oppose the change in the magnetic flux that is, it opposes t..

Tutors are very patient to explain me the same problem again and again until i understand...Really helpful...Thank you all...
I got a very good score in GED because of your great tutors, Thank you Tutor Vista - Pam
Their whiteboard is great. Online tutoring from this site is as good as like face to face tutoring and the great thing is I dont have to spend a lot.
I am a big fan of TutorVista tutoring. I am studying here from couple of months now and I want to continue for ever. - Ben
