Cristián Arriagada: Essential Physics Formulas
This compilation provides fundamental equations covering kinematics, dynamics, work, energy, and rotational motion in classical mechanics. These formulas are crucial for solving problems involving motion and forces.
1. Kinematics (Equations of Motion)
1.1. Uniformly Accelerated Motion (MUA)
- Velocity: V = V0 + a(t – t0)
- Position: X = X0 + V0t + 1/2 at2
- Velocity-Position: V2 = V02 + 2a(X – X0)
- Time: t = (V – V0) / a
1.2. Uniform Rectilinear Motion (MRU)
- Velocity:
The Great Depression: Causes, Global Impact, and Recovery Strategies
The Great Depression: Origins and Initial Impact
The 1929 Wall Street Crash triggered a worldwide depression. The collapse was driven by several factors:
- Stock speculation and market instability.
- Severe economic inequality.
- Weak financial regulation.
- Excessive private debt.
Following the crash, prices and trade dropped drastically, industrial output fell by over 30%, and unemployment reached 25% in many Western countries.

Isabel II: The Reign of the Queen (1833–1868)
The Triumph of Liberalism (1833–1844)
As Isabel II was a minor, there was a period of regency. The first ruler was Maria Cristina, her mother. This coincided with the First Carlist War, and to win, she allied with the Liberals.
The Liberals were divided into two groups:
- Moderates: Advocated for limited reforms.
- Progressives: Advocated for deep reforms.
Maria Cristina initially empowered the Moderates, but later yielded to the Progressives following protests.

The Construction of Normality: Biopolitics and Control
The Standard Human: Statistical Fictions and Biopolitical Control
Thesis: The standard human is a constructed ideal shaped by processes of statistical classification and biopolitical control. Using concepts like l’homme moyen and biopolitics, we can see how bureaucracies and infrastructures defined “normality,” excluded those who didn’t fit, and upheld systems of power that continue to regulate bodies today.

The Purpose of Gas Exchange in Animals
Gas exchange is the vital process where oxygen (O₂) is taken into an animal’s body and carbon dioxide (CO₂) is removed. Oxygen is essential for aerobic respiration, a cellular process that generates energy in the form of ATP. This energy fuels all life processes, including movement, growth, and maintaining body temperature. Carbon dioxide, a waste product of this process, must be removed as it can become toxic if it accumulates. All animals perform gas exchange,

Cardiovascular Accidents (Stroke)
A cardiovascular accident, commonly referred to as a stroke, is a sudden interruption in the blood supply to the brain, typically caused by a blood clot or a ruptured blood vessel. This interruption deprives the brain of oxygen and nutrients, leading to brain cell damage or death. Although severe strokes can sometimes lead to cardiac arrest, many people make a full recovery.
Symptoms of Stroke
- Paralysis or weakness, often on one side of the body
- Speech difficulties
