Given a quarter million dollars, how would you spend it? Would you spend it on a shopping spree vacation in Milan or invest it in a child? Because according to our calculations, it will cost at least SGD $340,000 to raise one child in Singapore from infancy to 21 years of age.hile some parents are hesitant to have their second child, other parents are not fazed by the daunting cost of raising children in Singapore. For Felicia*, who has 4 children under 5 years old, it is a case of âthe more the merrier!â âMy husband wants 2 more!â she says.
The difference of a Joule of Work and Joule of Energy is the difference between a scalar and a vector, direction! Energy is a quaternion number consisting of a scalar energy and vector energy. Unfortunately, this fact is not realized by physicists.
joule. 1. A unit of work or energy transfer. One joule is equal to work done by a force of one newton moved about 1 m in the direction of the force. 2. (J) A unit of energy equal to the work done when a force of one newton is applied through a distance of one meter. Used instead of calorie: 1 J = 0.239 cal.
