Why should one take short steps rather than long once when walking on ice?

While taking short steps,not much backward force is exerted by the foot on the ice, when when we try to take a long step,we have to push the foot on the ground backward, in order to move the other foot forward. As there is not sufficient frictional force to withstand the backward thrust of the foot, the foot will slip on the ice.

How do you measure human activity?

The most common way of measuring activity is with pedometers that counts steps. These devices to show for instance the distance walked, make the calculation multiplying the number of steps by the average step lenght. There is now a new device named WalkinSense, from a company named Tomorrow Options that measures (real) distance walked, like for example the distance driven shown in our cars. The device also counts steps, but by opposition to the pedometers, it calculates the average step lenght, dividing the distance walked by the number of steps. So, it is more efficient to measure human activity.

Why does a negative number multiplied by a negative number equals a positive number?

This is NOT a proof, just an explanation. Imagine you are on a number line and you are walking. Multiplying x*y is taking x steps, each of size y. Negative steps are interpreted by requriring you to face the negative end of the line before you start walking and negative step sizes are backward where backward is heel first. This mean to find, -x*-y you stand on zero, face in the negative direction, and then take x backward steps, each of size y.
