Two objects with different weights are dropped at the same time which lands first?
In a vacuum, they always land at the same time.
In air, it's not so much the weight but the air resistance.
If the shape and density are about the same, then the difference in weight doesn't make any difference.
I assume you mean Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
This is a swelling (for whatever reason) of the soft tissue around one of the nerves in your wrist (the nervus medianus to be exact). The problem is, that this nerve doesn't have much room, so it gets compressed. Nerves don't take compression very well, so you start to get a tingly sensation that you can "shake away". If it gets worse, the tingling turns to pain, and later on in reduction of muscle amount in your ulnar (the pinky side) of your palm, and even to paralysis.
Treatment usually starts with drugs (such as ibuprofen), can include local injections with corticoid, and when all fails, surgery. During this procedure, more room is created for the nerve, solving the problem. This can easely be done under regional anesthetics, and is considered minor surgery. Revalidation is short (2 weeks average).
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a collection of characteristic symptoms and signs that occurs following entrapment of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. Usual symptoms include numbness, paresthesias, and pain in the median nerve distribution. These symptoms may or may not be accompanied by objective changes in sensation and strength of median-innervated structures in the hand. Given that carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is associated with low aerobic fitness (and increased BMI), it makes inherent sense to provide the patient with an aerobic fitness program.

Can an employer make you work 6 days without pay if your salaried?
An employer cannot make you work ANY days without pay.
Hourly workers get paid for every hour. Salaried-overtime - exempt workers get paid for whole days or not at all for a day. Work 1 hour and you earn a days pay. Work 20 hours in a 24-hour period, and you earn a day's pay.
It sounds like the company may have gone out of business. If that's the case, you can sue for the money owed to you in small claims court (even if the company is still in business). Your local clerk of the court can assist you in this. You can probably also consult an employment attorney free of charge.
What was the purpose of the headright system in Georgia?

Can a potential empolyer obtain access to your medical records from a compensation claim?
Not legally. HIPAA required doctors and insurers to protect your records against abuse.
Your current employer can compel you to provide them, but cannot get them diretly from your doctor.
Depending on the State Laws in your state, you may not have any choice but to accept it, whether you like the job or not. I look at this way, you could have no job and no income, so light duty or having different duties is better than nothing. Make sure you read up on your State's latest DOL injury information.
What do you mean by food security?
Food security refers to the availability of food and ones access to it. A household is considered food secure when its occupants do not live in hunger or fear of starvation.
If you return to work on light duty will you get a paycheck from your employer and workers comp?
No. Because the doctor has verified that are able to work, and you are receiving a normal paycheck on company time. Now a check from workers comp may overlap with your employer pay, but, once workers comp has been notified, that you are working, light duty or otherwise, those payments will stop.
How long does it take to get the first check from worker's comp in Kentucky?
You have to be off work about 3 weeks before they start paying you. When you are off three weeks then they will also go back and pay for the 3 weeks you were off.
ANSWER:
Apparently, it isn't enough for some employers to force their workers into a wardrobe of polyester, hairnets and sensible shoes. Now they want those poorly dressed souls to pay for the privilege! Well, your great state of California simply won't let them get away with it. Under California law, an employer that requires its employees to wear uniforms is responsible for providing those uniforms -- and maintaining them in good repair. Of course, this means that the uniforms belong to the boss, and the boss can charge the employee a reasonable deposit while the uniform is in the employee's hands. An employee who doesn't return the uniform when asked will find that his employer can legally keep the deposit or deduct the cost of the uniform from the employee's last paycheck. But I don't imagine your husband would insist on keeping his uniform -- unless it's really a glamorous ensemble. Other U.S. states' laws may not offer such broad protection for employees. Contact your state department of labor for more information.

The employer is not required by law to pay out sick pay while an employee is collecting workman's comp. It depends on the employer though. In some cases an employer may pay earned sick pay to an employee collecting workman's comp. pay as a good will gesture, especailly to an employee who has had a very serious injury and has been a long term employee who has had few or no injuries.

In most places workers are covered by Workers' Compensation Laws. In return for not being able to sue their employers, they get relatively rapid compensation for work-related injuries and illnesses. Laws in different jurisdictions differ but generally, the only time an injured employee can sue an employer is when the employer intentionally caused the injury, or displayed "reckless disregard" for a hazard that resulted in injury.
