Balance Definition and 490 Threads

New Balance (NB) is an American sports footwear and apparel brand that was established in 1906. The brand was originally associated with the New Balance Arch Support Company. Today the brand is associated with New Balance Athletics, Inc., an American multinational corporation and its parent New Balance, Inc., a Jim Davis owned holding company that owns New Balance Athletics, Inc. New Balance Athletics, Inc. and New Balance, Inc. are both based in the same headquarters located in Boston, Massachusetts.
New Balance is one of the world's major sports footwear and apparel manufacturers and maintains a manufacturing presence in the United States, as well as in the United Kingdom for the European market, where they produce some of their most popular models such as the 990 model—in contrast to its competitors, which often manufacture exclusively outside the United States and Europe. As a result, New Balance shoes tend to be more expensive than those of many other manufacturers. To offset this pricing difference, New Balance claims to differentiate their products with technical features, such as blended gel inserts, heel counters and a greater selection of sizes, particularly for very narrow or very wide widths. The company has made total profits of approximately $69 billion since 1992.

    How does gravity cause movement in a balance?

    ive asked this before but i was answered that what made me think a vertical balance should level to horizontal. well here is a reason: http://www.pbs.org/weta/roughscience/series3/gold_rush/balance.html if the weights are the same in both arms and you lean the balance 45º it will go to...

    How can you explain how a balance works vectorially?

    you have a balance with 1kg weight in each 1 meter long arm when its horizontal each 10 N force * 1 m long will balance so the balance won't move but when you lean the balance 45º the vertical force will be cos 45 * 10 N in each arm so the balance should stay in that position since the...

    The Big Questions: A Balance Point and Time Reference Point in the Universe

    I've been reading a lot of Michio Kaku's books, and he keeps using the analogy of a crumpled piece of paper with ants walking on it to describe gravity (or force). My question is, if the ant stood on a certain point, wouldn't he not fall? Is there a balance point like this in the universe? This...

    Why do we lose balance in a bike when at a standstill?

    ive been wondering... why is it so much easier to maintain our balance when the bike is moving? is it something of centripital (sp?) force, just like when you sit on a spinable chair and spin a bike wheel and it turns you in circles. (does the force of the spinning force you downward?)
