Land speed record

jumping, was part of the Olympics since the first games in 1924. Ski jumping was born in 1860 when Norwegian Sondre Norheim, built the first measured jump and flew 30 metres. That record held for more than three decades. Ski jumping is a sport where skiers go down a ramp, jump, attempt to fly as far as possible, and land safely. Judges give points to skiers for proper technique and style, but those points do not add much to the total as the distance contributes to the majority of the scoring. Over

rotating wind that is followed by a funnel-shaped cloud of debris that moves in a narrow path over a body of land. Tornadoes are formed by warm, wet winds and cold, dry air meeting from opposite directions, also known as wind shear. then the air mixes together and starts forming a funnel of wind, pulling clouds with it. Eventually, the funnel-shaped cloud touches down onto a large piece of flat land (e.g. a plain). For example, in the United States, tornadoes form in the spring and summer time because

it to grow. Thus, gamers found a new way of approaching the game, called “sword less” speed running. This game strategy is performed with the intention of completing the game as fast as possible without using a sword until the fight with the antagonist, Ganon.

food supplies and weapons and ammo. The Steamboat Iowa was the largest and fastest boats on the Mississippi in the mid 1900s. Weighing in at 112 tons. This boat was able to pull 10 keelboats, and it set the speed record in 1843 from Illinois to St. Louis, finishing in only 44 hours. This record was broke in 1849. The Mormon supporters of Joe Smith Jr hired the Iowa to rescue him from jail but it was shortly cancelled after Joe was murdered in jail. On October 1st 1847 Iowa had a collision with the

rather by the speed and extremity of a change in society. Under this definition, it is possible to classify events, such as the Transportation Revolution, as revolutions, regardless of their peaceful natures. Due to the fact that the Transportation Revolution was a period of

Senior Division – Should high speed trains be introduced to Australia? The high speed trains or bullet trains, are called Shinkansen. They run at speeds of up to 320 kilometers per hour. Japan’s main islands of Kyushu, Honshu and Hokkaido are connected by a network of high speed train lines and they connect Tokyo with most of the country’s major cities which are operated by Japan Railways. The Shinkansen is known for their punctuality, as they depart on time to the second, comfort, as they have

Stage 1 Physics investigation - Parachute Investigation The purpose of this assignment is to work out a parachute design and investigate parachute’s drop time. Parachutes are designed to fall slowly so that the person can land safely to the ground, as shown in figure 1. Parachutes are big, but not heavy and have a larger surface area for air resistance like traps the air from escaping out of it. This is because the air pushes the parachute back up, but the force of gravity pulls the parachute to

the author’s life when the narrator crash lands in a desert, the things he encounters in the desert and the resemblance of the little prince to his younger brother. Topic Sentence #1: Just like the narrator of the story, the Antoine de Saint-Exupery crash landed on a desert while flying his plane. 1. On 30 December 1935, Saint-Exupéry, along with his mechanic-navigator André Prévot, crashed in the Sahara desert, during an attempt to break the speed record in a Paris-to-Saigon air race and win a

of the table where the Gauss rifle placed. Record the value. Shooting a One Magnet Stage Gauss Rifle 1. Practice shooting the Gauss rifle so that you can place the plastic box at the correct distance for accurate measurements. The experiment will look something like the first diagram (found on page 13). 2. Lift the slide just a little to get the ball rolling toward the magnet. Keep an eye on the last ball and where it lands so that you know where to place the plastic

INTRODUCTION A hovercraft is an air vehicle, or ACV, is a craft capable of travelling over Land, water, on the ice , soil or other surfaces, both travel Speed and stop. Transporting vehicle also called a hovercraft, that rides slightly above the Earth 's surface on a cushion of air. The air is continuously forced under the vehicle by a fan which generates the cushion that greatly reduces friction between the moving vehicle and the surface. The air is usually delivered through ducts and injected
