DR.. w. Horslay Can't, who was
a student of Pavlov, discussed
his application of the condition

understand the nature an d
causes of mental illness, and
what can be done in prevention
and treatment of mental illness
and in the rehabilitation of

MOMENTUM

In slowing or stopping your
car, the energy Of motion must
be used up by your brakes which
create friction between your
tires and the road. But it takes
time for friction to counteract
the force Of MOMENTUM. The
faster you speed, the greater
stopping distance you need.
SO constantly adjust your
speed and distance behind the
car ahead of you to give your
self time to stop gradually.
