Results The purpose of flying paper airplanes was to see which plane would be the fastest and slowest out of 20 planes. The main purpose was to see which plane had the lowest velocity.

Task 1[P7] ÿ Diagram in cruise: When the aircraft is in cruise mode the four forces act on it as Lift, Weight, Drag, Thrust. Lift is a force that helps aircraft fly by counteracting the weight of the aircraft and produced as a result of airflow around the wings of the aircraft. Weight is a force produced due to weight of the aircraft and various components of it, and due to gravity of earth it acts vertically downwards opposing the force of lift. Drag is the resistance offered to motion

Vehicle Enhancements Do you want your vehicle to reach a higher top speed than expected, but do not know what enhancements to use for it to be done safely? Although there are many upgrades that can improve speed, you also need to improve down force and weight reduction to reach maximum potential. If the three of these are not done, then when reaching high speeds the vehicle may flip because it does not have the proper down force it needs to hold it to the ground. When the car has too much weight

The second phase of the project required me to design a closed loop control system for the canard actuation system required for the de-spin maneuver. This opened up an exciting world of control theory and its applications and the thought of creating smarter/more efficient mechanical systems, perhaps an autonomous go kart, excited me. Having worked

Of the many regions of France, Gascogne is a very prominent one. Gascogne has very interesting history, geography, people and food, plus many fun places to visit. Firstly, Gascogne has very interesting history. Before the French revolution, the area was called Gascony, part of the “Province of Guyenne and Gascony.” In pre-Roman times, the inhabitants of Gascony were the Aquitanians who spoke a language very similar the modern language of Basque. The Aquitanians inhabited a territory limited to

The speaker asserts that as we investigate about history we cannot realize truth directly, consequently, we assemble different histories to show and demonstrate historical evidence as bona fide ones, and therefore, all historians are storytellers. This is an extreme approach, moreover, many historical events can be known directly by reliable evidence. Firstly, I agree with speaker that there are a lot of storytellers who are wrongly considered as historians, although this is an improved translation

a water retriever. Its name in English derives from the German Pudelhund, or “dog that splashes in the water.” In France, where the dog quickly rose in prominence to become the national breed, its name was caniche, a play on the word for duck, canard: a “duck dog.” The miniature and toy sizes were bred down from the standard shortly after- ward, making the poodle unique, differing from most other large breeds that have only been recently miniaturized. Sketches by Albrecht Durer establish

Talking about war tends to make people feel emotional, feel a sort of adrenaline rush, mad, and even proud. These emotions can at times, in my opinion, bring groups together and separate others because of disagreements on views and beliefs. While it is not easy to talk to anyone about delicate topics such as this one, it is important to acknowledge how war can influence societal behavior and culture. Many can argue that war unites people, particularly speaking of the United States; a country is known

Young people nowadays might remember the time that they had their first mobile phone, but there are only a few of them can remember what was the the first time they watched a television. Televisions are so familar to many people. It is one of the blockbuster inventions of all time. Back in ten years ago, the television is how people get the news, and how they entertain themselve, not a computer. Computers in ten years ago were a comlicated machine to use. Even in the twenty first century, the computers

The Wright Brothers –Inventing the First Plane Wilbur Wright was born on April 16, 1867 in Millville, Indiana and Orville Wright was born on August 19, 1871 in Dayton, Ohio to Milton Wright and Susan Catherine Koerner. They had two older brothers, Reuchlin and Lorin, and a younger sister Katharine who happened to share a birthday with Wilbur. Their father was a minister, in the Church of the United Brethren in Christ, and spent a lot of time traveling for the church. During one of his trips
