Scarring and selection effects on children surviving elevated rates of postneonatal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa
Infants in sub-Saharan Africa face adversity: Infections and undernutrition are major causes of infant deaths and can cause physiological damage with long-lasting adverse scarring effects on the human development of the survivors, for example, in terms of health and education. However, selective mortality of more vulnerable children at very high levels of adversity in early life can leave the surv
From skating rink to physics assignment - Viewing a photo from a mechanics perspective
Circular motion changes the perception of up and down. For a skater, the need to lean in towards the centre of an arc constitutes an embodiment of centripetal acceleration. This paper presents a discussion between a physicist and a high-school science teacher without previous physics studies at university level. The discussions started as part of a course assignment and focused on a photo of skate
