Which of the following best describes the fundamental difference between Personnel Management and Human Resource Management?
The key distinction is that Personnel Management was primarily reactive and administrative (handling records, payroll, compliance), while HRM is proactive and strategic - aligning human resources with organizational goals, focusing on development, and treating people as valuable assets rather than costs.
A stone dropped from height $h$ hits the ground with momentum $P$. If the same stone is dropped from height $2h$ (100% more), the momentum on hitting the ground changes by approximately:
$v = \sqrt{2gh}$, so $P = mv = m\sqrt{2gh}$
New momentum: $P' = m\sqrt{2g(2h)} = \sqrt{2}\,P$
Percentage change $= (\sqrt{2}-1)\times 100 \approx 0.414 \times 100 = \mathbf{41\%}$
