Mechanical Band
Mechanical Band
I have a question about energy, kinetic or mechanical?
"Take a rubber band, and stretch it between the thumb and index finger of one hand. Hold it there for as long as you can."
At what state is the energy in the rubber band? Potential kinetic energy right?
As your hand gets tired, what state of energy is it fighting against? I think this is kinetic, mechanical, or gravitational energy?
Release the rubber band from your finger. At what state is the energy in the rubber band as it is released? Would this be kinetic or mechanical?
Please explain and don't answer unless you are 100% sure. This is for homework, it is important I answer CORRECTLY =)
potential energy unless something is moving, then it turns into energy of motion which is kinetic energy. Mechanical energy is the sum of both potential and kinetic. I would say situation 1 is potential energy, situation 2 sounds fishy, and situation 3 is kinetic.

Trying to outline, especially in these tough economic times, the fund raising idea, which needs to be of usefulness both to your would-be customer, as well as to the bottom line of your organzation, can be daunting.
Sometimes, it feels like you're called upon to stage miracles with little or no time and even less to invest in the project. The bottom line is that fund raising is a small business and needs to be treated as such.
To often the beginnings of these projects occur out of a quick decision to accomplish, this or that, with no apparent aim other than to manufacture some quick cash. Sometimes profitable, now and again not.
The fund raising idea needs to be well planned out for any sized project great or small.
During your planning stage, you need to ask yourself. In addition to providing funds in support of my organization, how am I contributing to the lives of persons who help us? That could seem like an peculiar question when all you need are funds for a church retreat, or school band uniforms, but in these tough fiscal times you would like to add value to whatever thing that you offer to your customer. Remember that customer is most often not going to be at the retreat, and will not benefit in the way persons privileged to have been sponsored will benefit.
What are you giving him or her?
What's their value?
Sometimes it's sufficient that it's a tax write off, or solely the feeling of giving to and serving a first-rate cause. But more and more often with the budget being what it is, we need to discover a deeper 'why', what does this fix for your customer?
I moreover caution you to carefully consider the consumer opinion of a certain fund raiser, a few such as magazine subscriptions have been twisted to scams in recent years to the point that many decline to buy such subscriptions from a smiling faced youngster at their door due to the ordinary belief that such is nothing more than a trick, not really attached to the organization they profess to be with.
And that does not even consider the risky nature of children going to strangers doors, with or without adult supervision.
So in considering the fund raising idea you need to consider the complete picture. Yes, you need funds, but the customer needs value.
With every fund raising idea, ask yourself, 'What does this item, service or product offer our average customer and what will their mechanical response to it be?"
Find something more than the tax write off, or the helpful feeling, since you obtain those with whatever your donation is.
What's the real value? Find something that saves them cash, perhaps a discount card, or a online shopping mall with discounts and you produce a solid value to show the customer.
If they know they can make a percentage back on their next hotel stay or an upfront price cut from a local business that's value.
You need to take into consideration the area and what has worked for other organizations in your area, rules are not set in rock, a ample variety of fund raisers can succeed.
But you could hit upon your winning combination in a fund raising idea that takes the time to consider customer needs and add value to their lives.
