destination by helping it withstand gravity and pressure. Lift is one of the four forces, lift is an upward force that is created by the movement of air above and below an airplane wing. Lift helps balance out the weight of the plane for it to be able to withstand gravity. Lift's air flows faster above the wing and slower below the wing, which creates a difference in pressure that keeps the airplane flying. A second force is weight, which is pressure or gravity that pulls the airplane back to…

Air hockey is a fun, mindless activity for everyone to play but do you really know the complex science behind it? Air hockey involves concepts from Newton’s three laws of motion. The science behind air hockey is all based off of Newton’s laws. The air hockey table allows the puck to glide easily and certain forces are required to move the puck, stop the puck, and accelerate the puck. Also, for every force applied on the puck, there is always an equal and opposite reaction. The next few…

towards female bodies. During a trip Oscar’s favorite bar JJ’s he refers to two women as his ‘sister;’ however the encounter becomes sexual. “Bertha removes his hand from around her waist. She throws her deliciously zoftig breasts into me. ‘My Brown Buffalo can take even Bertha babes whenever he’s ready too.’ Because she comes to my defense and because I love her gorgeous cans against my chest I stick my tongue in her ear as a reward.” Oscar’s commodification of women and utilization of vulgar,…

Watershed pollution possess an environmental problem for many areas across the world. One example is the Buffalo National River Watershed. Recently, an industrial hog farming complex has moved near the Buffalo National River and in the watershed for this river system. Industrial hog farms create tremendous amounts of hog waste that pose a threat to the creeks and rivers that make up the surrounding watershed. Can the government and local conservation groups protect this beautiful ecosystem, and…

In his article “How we Listen to Music”, Aaron Copland (1988) states that music is listened to on three different planes. Copland describes them as the sensuous plane, the expressive plane, and the sheerly musical plane. The reasoning for listening to music for the pure rhythm and harmony is the sensuous plane. The sensuous plane is where “one turns on the radio while doing something else and absent mindedly is engendered by the mere sound and appeal of the music” (Copland). People who apply…

The T-41 (i.e., the military version of the Cessna 172) had a "simple mechanical" flight control system using direct mechanical linkages. Direct feedback of forces acting on the control surfaces to the control stick (or yoke) provided a natural feel. The feedback was by the "seat of the pants". The trim system was a mechanical linkage connected directly to a trim control wheel in the cockpit. There is no warning in the T-41 if the trim was set incorrectly. It is the pilot’s responsibility…

Did you know parachutes come in all kinds of different shapes? The shapes vary from circles to triangles. However which one is the fastest? There are many factors that effect the speed of parachutes. Kinetic and potential, for example, influence the parachutes speed and movement. When a skydiver jumps out of an airplane gravity pulls him towards the ground and he doesn’t have enough air resistance to safety land on the ground. That’s where the parachute comes in! When the skydiver pulls the…

Ornithopter The Human-Power Ornithopter, a wing-flapping device, was designed in 1485 with the intent to fly. However, there is no evidence that he attempted to build the machine, but his ideas of human powered flight device followed for the next several hundred years. His inspiration came from birds or bats, which lead to the two-wing device feature. The wingspan exceeded 33 feet and the frame consisted of pine covered in raw silk, which is light but sturdy. The pilot, laying down in the…

Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 What is aerofoil? Aerofoil is a large stucture which is attached to the airplane. It has curved surfaces designed to give required ratio of lift and drag. It helps to create different aeodynamic forces. The force perpendicular to the motion of aeofoil is lift force. The force parallel to the motion of aerofoil is drag force. 1.2 How it works? Aerofoil consists of following components: • Suction surface • Pressure surface • Leading edge • Tailing edge •…

reason behind the designing of oblique wings. This design has been found to reduce wave drag for a supersonic aircraft and can be believed as an aerodynamic evolution to swept wings on symmetric aircraft configurations. This wing is not symmetric at supersonic speeds, but rotates about a central pivot, which allows the maximum cross sectional area perpendicular to the flow to be half that of a similar symmetric design. The…
