Yeah, but I'm sure the severity of my procrastination isn't typical (not that it's anything to be proud of)
I'm actually very interested in the subjects, I don't think that's the problem. Yes that's mostly true, I've been able to get by all this time, I got through my GCSEs with a few A's, B's...
I'm not sure where I was going with the 'acceleration would decrease thing' since it's always going to be 9.8, I think
I have an idea, is it because when the legs are bent the angle is different, so the component of the force going downwards is going to be smaller?
And also, when knees...
Well, it's a legitimate possibility they can refer you to a team who will then decide you need to be sectioned. But I'll consider going to the GP about it, thanks for your advice
No, for two reasons. I didn't think it would be worthwhile as something like adult ADHD is rarely diagnosed and GPs don't generally diagnose you with it, and also I have some things that I do involuntarily that I really don't want a doctor to see, in case they come to the wrong conclusions and I...
It seems like any goal I try to make in life will involve being a student and passing exams. But I can't, I've tried for many years, I can't study like a normal person. I will tell myself (after the fifth time taking the same exam), this time I'll study a month or two in advance, but I will...
I'm alright with deadlines as long as they don't involve studying, I can do other things like write/draw to a strict deadline regularly
Ah, that's a shame then, I guess it's not something I can do
Thanks for the help
Thanks for your advice
Yeah, I'll start writing now and do a few projects. Being able to write well will hopefully come from a few years of good practice and some feedback. Getting a degree would be ideal but I'm no good at studying for exams or coursework, my concentration only allows for a...
Thanks very much for your advice
I see. The problem with getting first hand experience in academia is that I'm just not cut out for it, even if I do a distance learning course with the OU, I will fail almost certainly. For example, I failed a-levels even after retaking them, because I can't...
I'm considering trying to be a science journalist, but I'm not sure how to go about it. Currently I self study physics (I'm still at the beginner level), I'm going to do a practical physics experiment at a local college which I'm preparing for, and I love reading and watching about all things...
Force is equal to rate of change in momentum? f=dp/dt I think. Well I don't know, do bent knees absorb force more? I'll try and draw graphs, thanks
I'm not sure how bending your knees would change the force. Would it decrease it? And since mass stays constant, acceleration would decrease?
Homework Statement
When jumping from a height on to a hard surface, it is advisable to bend one's knees on landing. How does bending the knees affect the time one takes to come to rest? (1 mark)
With reference to Newton's second law, explain why it is a good idea to bend one's knees. (2...
