Abstract In this paper, the effect of resistances on applied force has been studied practically. As per the study, the existing Newton’s equation (F=ma) calculates only net force and does not count the effect of resistances. It has been observed that in every action some part of the applied force is required to overcome the effect of resistances (friction, air resistances, etc.); and when applied force exceeds that amount only then a stationary body accelerate. Hence a mathematical expression (F=ma+r) has been provided by including a factor describing above said resistances.

Generally, the opposite nature of brightness is supposed to be darkness i.e. shadow. For the formation of shadow, source of light; object and screen are required. We can see forming shadow, but we can not see the some rules of nature that governs the shadow. As for example- F=MA, This is the famous equation from the Newton's second law of motion. It shows the relationship among applied force F, mass of body M and acceleration produced on body A. This even helps to formulate the much famous equation E=MC². In the same way, 'Theory of shadow' also shows the relationship among the different factors. From the close observation, when the symmetrical point source is taken, object distance; area of object and shadow distance are interrelated to the nature and size of shadow. 'Theory of Shadow' focuses on how these different factors are interconnected, how do they rule the formation of shadow and finally give the whole conclusion in the beauty of equation. For this work, experimental; mathematical and geometrical procedures are being applied while in each and every trial, The 'Theory of Shadow' is found to be exactly proved.Key words: Point source; Area of object; Object distance; Area of shadow; Shadow distanceThe Himalayan PhysicsVol.1, No.1, May, 2010Page: 101-105Uploaded Date: 29 July, 2011

AbstractA new vibration apparatus for measuring the shear strength of snow has been designed and fabricated. The force applied to a snow block is calculated using Newton’s second law. Results from this apparatus concerning the dependence of the shear strength on snow density, overburden load and strain rate are in reasonable agreement with those obtained from the work of previous researchers. Snow densities ranged from 160 to 320 kg m−3. The overburden load and strain rate ranged from 1.95 × 10−1to 7.79 × 10−1kPa and 2.9 × 10−4to 9.1 × 10−3s−1respectively.

Abstract The effort/motion approach has been developed for use in designing, simulating and controlling multibody systems. Some aspects of each of these topics are discussed here. In the effort/motion formulation two sets of equations based on the orthogonal projections of a dimensional gauge invariant form of Newton’s Second Law occur. The projections are onto the normal and tangent directions of a dimensional gauge invariant constraint surface. The paper shows how these equations are obtained for a particular linkage with redundant effort and motion actuation. Two alternative Runga-Kutta based approaches for numerical simulation of the effort/motion equations are developed and applied in simulating the motion and determining the effort generated in the example linkage under various conditions. Oscillation about equilibrium positions, solutions with constant motion and with constant effort are given as examples of the approach.
