their fighter escorts were challenged by Russian-built MiG-15 fighters flown by Chinese airmen. The MiG-15's outflew first-generation American jet fighters until the introduction of the swept-wing F-86 Sabre tipped the balance. In the world's first supersonic air combats, the Americans…
This report has two major parts of the main body: the atmosphere of Pluto and surface of Pluto. For atmosphere part, I discussed its unusual extended range, composition, and the escape of atmospheric atoms. Atoms of tholins in the atmosphere can affect both the colour of haze and the ground of Pluto. The second part contains the geological features on Pluto, including two distinctive regions: Sputnik Platinum and Tombaugh Regio. In this part, further interactions of the atmosphere and geological…

The cirrhotic liver 's rigidity can give investigative information on the site and acuteness of cirrhosis. Techniques used include “transient elastography, acoustic radiation force impulse imaging, supersonic shear imaging and magnetic resonance elastography”. Compared to a biopsy, elastography can test a broader section of the liver and is unproblematic. It also shows considerable connection with the seriousness of cirrhosis. Other tests executed in…
the inlet and at higher flight speeds it will slow down. Thus the internal profile of the inlet has to accommodate both accelerating and diffusing flow without undue losses. For supersonic aircraft, the inlet has features such as cones and ramps to produce the most efficient series of shockwaves which form when supersonic flow slows down. The air slows down from the flight speed to subsonic velocity through the shockwaves, then to about half the speed of sound at the compressor through the…
