They are falls caused by the environment like a slip and fall on ice or a loose rug. They are not falls caused by muscle weakness or a seizure etc.

What is the mediums for ripples on a pond?
It's either mechanical waves or water. Mechanical waves is what categeory it falls under, but water is an example of the medium.
What branch of science is aerodynamics from?
It falls under physics along with gravity.
Difference between chemical spoilage and mechanical spoliage?
Example: a block of cheese has grown moldy. This is chemical spoilage. A block of cheese falls on the floor. This is mechanical spoilage.
What is an example of gravitational energy transforming to mechanical energy?
Gravitational potential energy IS mechanical energy. Mechanical energy includes both kinetic energy, and potential energy.When an object falls, gravitational potential energy will be converted to KINETIC energy.
What is the scientific study of rays called?
Astronomers use the EM spectrum, Physicists speculate about it, yet the practical study of it falls to the Mechanical Engineers: your answer = mechanical engineering.
What is the mechanical advantage of a combined pulley?
A ratio that is the number of falls of rope in the system, apart from the rope between head-pulley and winch or you.
What is mechanical energy to kinetic energy and potential energy?
Mechanical energy Created contained or directed by machineKinetic Energy : the energy in movementPotential energy : a heavy weight on a cliff is a good example, it has all the energy that it will release or use if it falls
What energy transformations occur in a fan?
A moving fan is an example of kinetic energy, the energy of objects in motion. An example of potential energy would be a large rock at the edge of a cliff. If the rock falls off the cliff, its potenital energy (energy by virtue of its location), is converted to kinetic energy, energy of its motion, as it falls.
What is a stirling engine generator?
A Stirling engine generator falls into the category of external combustion engine. This type of engine converts heat energy to mechanical work by compressing and expanding air or other gas.
What is a mechanical engineering topic that mechanical engineers often argue about?
VIBRATIONPreventive maintenance and frequency of inspections Uncertainty in measurements.........................................Difference between torque and power...* Most Mechanical Engineers are pressured to complete projects "on-time / on-budgit". This normally means that the equipment installed just meets the requirements of Operations but is not a quality piece of machinery that will last. This now falls into the laps of Maintenance Reliability. Look at all of the "throwaway" equipment now utilized in the US!
What does a mechanical designer do?
a mechanical designer designs and make mechanical things
Is robot a mechanical or not?
A robot consist mechanical and non-mechanical both
