Law Coursework Question

In Hooke's Law, what do they mean by K Constant?

First, check your arithmetic so that you don't have an erroneous value for k. And keep two decimal places.

second, assuming your data and computations are correct (by the way, units are important - what are the units of force - dynes, netwons, pounds? and the units of extension - cm, m, inches, feet?) plot k as a funciton of f and plot k as a function of x. You can see without doing that, that k is changing as F increases so k isn't going to be constant. That could mean one of two things:

1. Your data is in error. The measurements were recorded erroneously, made erroneously, etc. and led to the derived values for K that you have in your table.

2. When the force got bigger than 100 (units), the spring passed its elastic limit and Hooke's Law no longer applies. Springs follow Hooke's Law unti some point where they start to get more elastic - the metal is actually starting to fatigue under the tension and adds to the extension of the spring. This maybe what you are seeing assuming you have good data.

How do I write a contract law essay?

Offer and Acceptance is a traditional approach in contract law which is used to determine when an agreement exists between two parties. In order to constitute a contract, there must be an offer by one person to another and an acceptance of that offer by the person to whom is made.SOURCE:Helpful tips for writing the best law school essayA legally binding offer in order to be valid will have to include clearly stated terms because sometimes a statement may be indefinite to consist of a valid offer. Also, an offer will include intention to do business and as a final feature the offer must be communicated to the offerer. The communication of an offer may be written or spoken but it may usually be by conduct.On the other hand, acceptance in order to be legally binding, it is appropriate to follow three main rules. To start with, acceptance must be a ‘mirror image’ of the offer. This is meant that the offerer must be agreeing to all terms of offer and not trying to insert new terms.Secondly, acceptance must be firm and finally must be communicated to the offeror. In this way, offerer has to make the acceptance with communication to the offeror. There are a lot of ways to communicate but the law relating to communication comprehends plenty different rules.SOURCE:How to Write a Law EssayIn an agreement, elements such as offer, acceptance, consideration, intention and consent are vital as they cement the validity of a contract. The acceptance should reflect the offer precisely in order to result in an agreement known as ‘consensus ad idem’. It is clear that a contract that lacks these elements may be considered invalid. However, looking at the case at hand, the postal acceptance rule is the determining factor in the matter.

1500 word essay on Contract Law: Offer and Acceptance.?

I suppose that you are in the UK.

I would disregard the answers here unless they identify themselves as knowledgable in British Common Law.
I just took my contracts final today in American Law, and we have the Uniform Commercial Code which changed a few things found in Common Law. For one, you don't need to have mutual assent to have a contract. You can have unilateral contracts, you can have promisory estoppel, you can have quantum mertuit etc. There is no mutuality here because the advertisement doesn't name a specific person. If it had said, "I will sell these CDs to the first person who replies" then the parties would be identifiable. I can name several American cases that refer to this example, but that wouldn't help you. I have an English Contracts case book from 1887, which belonged to my great great grandfather, but that won't help you either.

This question would best be handled on the American side with
HARVEY V. FACEY
The court held here that there must be a definite offeror and offeree for there to be a contract. This is applied to advertisements as well. An advertisement is generally held to be an invitation for an offer rather than an offer because it is not definite enough. If the ad had said, first person to call me gets it then it would be an offer because the offeree could be easily identified (LEFKOWITZ V. GREAT MINN. STORE)

In America, Gaz could sell his CDs to any of the ladies he chose, or he could reject their offers. Each of the ladies gave an offer with different terms: 2000 and pick up in 2 weeks, 2000 immediate pick up, 1500.

Like I wrote, however, this would be the American view. I could go on and on about how the UCC would apply, but this would be wasting your time.

In a hypothetical, you must analyze each person's position, and then put in your own facts. What if Gaz sold to one of the ladies, what could the others do? Which offers were valid? Look at the methods of acceptances, counter offers are rejections and an offer.

Because this is a sale of goods, you have to address the statute of frauds whether someone will be successful or not. (remember the acronym MY LEGS, it's the G part)

I'm killing myself now because I just realized that an option contract is binding under the mail box rule upon receipt. I got that one wrong arrrgh.

Ok I'm done with the law for at least a week, time to hit the pub and get smashed

Should law school be less than 3 years?

If you can't get the grammar right in your title, why do you feel entitled to make such a pronouncement about legal studies?(hint: "less" isn't the same as "fewer")In all seriousness, your complaints in your post (which, by the way, should be posted here as opposed to driving traffic elsewhere) are largely specious.  Yes, top law schools don't train for particular bar exams: this is because at those schools, students graduate to dozens of different jurisdictions.  Why should, e.g., Penn try to teach for a dozen different states' bars?I don't know what school you're at, but all top law schools include coursework on drafting, but it focuses primarily on appellate work.  Why?  Same as above: your students are going into dozens of different fields, requiring different types of briefwork, etc.  Law school is about giving you information that applies broadly to all legal fields, not just one form of draftmanship.No hiring officer in any law firm larger than a few people is expecting an incoming first-year to generate business; that's an absurd straw man.  Moreover, that's a business skill and law school isn't about business; it's about law.  You may as well complain that law schools aren't doing enough to teach students about the psychology of running an office.Why should law schools require practical work?  Every good law school has dozens of clinical opportunities, as well as already requiring that each student do dozens of hours of pro bono work before graduation.  What sort of law school are you going to where this isn't true?The irony is that there are valid arguments for a two-year program, but you seem to have ignored all of them in favor of these.

Can you get the law wrong on the bar exam essays and still pass it?

In my state, North Carolina, the graders don't start out with a grading rubric, they make it from reading the essays. This means if no one knows the law, the best BS'er sets the standard. I think the key to doing well on the bar is just being confident in your answer and your writing. Without these two things, knowing all the laws will do nothing for you.On my bar exam, there were a lot of surprises due to BARBRI telling us what would likely be on the exam and what wouldn't. We ended up with Con Law, Family Law, Property, and Civil Procedure questions that were pretty different from what they focused on. Even though some of the questions were "out there" (especially Con Law and Property), I did well enough to pass, but a lot of people freaked out and didn't (we also had the lights go out for 45 minutes during the exam, a loose mouse/rat, and noise from trees being cut down nearby. Some people were so stressed they started crying).The best thing you can do to prepare is do "mock exam" study sessions. I did more than a half of a day of essays under timed condition every week (after the first few weeks, so I actually felt like I knew enough to write) and practiced under timed conditions with multiples a few times a week too. I think this helped me more than anything because I didn't freak out because I'd done the exam so many times before and I knew I had to just keep going.Good luck!
