Worked Examples in Physics

American Journal of Physics, 1963
By V. L. Zubov and V. P. Shal'nov (Trans, by E. Marquit) London: Pergamon Press. 1962. Pp. xii + 341. Price 35s. Although it is stated at the beginning of this collection of worked examples in Physics that they are from examinations equivalent to Advanced and Scholarship levels, the majority of the examples are nearer Ordinary than Advanced level.

Physics at Work

Physics Bulletin, 1974
At the annual dinner of the Cavendish Laboratory, around the turn of the century, the young J J Thomson proposed a toast to the laboratory's recent discovery of the electron: 'Here's to the electron', the toast ran, 'may no one ever find a use for it.' It was an arrogant statement which reflected the physicist's traditional disregard for any possible ...

Physics at work

Physics Bulletin, 1985
An industrialist recently commented to me that he did not think present-day physics graduates are as good as those of 15 or 20 years ago. On being asked to define 'good', he explained that he always looked on physicists as people who could get things done.

VITAMINS, IRON, AND PHYSICAL WORK

The Lancet, 1989
Combined marginal deficiencies of iron, vitamin C, and B-group vitamins are widespread in developing countries. An understanding of the functional implications poses a continuing challenge, both for the development of new techniques of investigation and for the design of effective intervention programmes.

The History of Work in Physical Dysfunction

The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 1992
Abstract Work has been at the core of occupational therapy for the last seven and a half decades. The tenets of work, which include providing a way of making a living and giving meaning to one’s existence, have remained consistent throughout occupational therapists’ use of work in the treatment of physical disabilities during three eras:

Assessment of physical work capacity

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1961
Maximal oxygen uptakes were compared with the results from five different tests of physical work capacity in 96 men, 23–62 years of age. In addition, the 'predicted' maximal oxygen uptakes, according to the Ǻstrand-Ryhming nomogram, were compared with the actual measured maximal oxygen uptakes in the 28 subjects who were between 20 and 30 years of age.

Work-Related Physical Assault

Journal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine, 1998
Violence in the workplace is a serious public health problem. Yet, to date, little has been documented relevant to non-fatal events associated with physical assault. The aim of the present study was to identify the magnitude of work-related physical assault in Minnesota and to identify potential risk factors; both fatal and non-fatal cases were ...

A physical model of muscle working to evaluate the work ability

International Congress Series, 2005
Abstract It was well known that work ability included a wide kind of related aspects, involving both mental and physical well-being. When mechanical works were taken into account, it was necessary to refer to muscular structure and its consistency, for assessing the work ability and employability; i.e. efficiency of performances of the muscles has to

Work satisfaction and physical health

Journal of Community Health, 1982
This analysis asks how satisfaction with one's main work role (whether that is a paid job or housework) is related to physical health. Data from a Detroit survey show that: (1) Dissatisfied people have poorer health status and take more curative health actions than do satisfied people.
