Tank

The amazing SeaWorld. But how would you feel if you knew of the abnormal things they did to their sea life? The average killer whale swims about 400 miles a day, but at SeaWorld, they are confined to the equivalent of a bathtub for humans. Their tank is much shallower than their ocean, so when the orcas get sunburnt, they are covered with black paint.When SeaWorld wants animals, they capture them, and sometimes kill the animals in the process. Not all of the animals from SeaWorld were captured;…

20th century surfaced from this event that became known as “Tank Man”; as the government sent out tanks to kill protesters, a man of unknown identity simply stood in the middle of the road, facing an oncoming tank. The tank driver didn’t hit the man, but rather disobeyed his officials orders and stayed parked. The identity of Tank Man is unknown, but the image spread throughout the media as the ultimate stand for human rights. For Tank Man, he opted for possible death as opposed to facing…

These Young people had to push themselves hard to be “normal” so that they can be acknowledged. However, when the society finds out that they are really smart they instantaneously become alienated. One of the main focuses of the book is the Think-Tank which was created by the minors to provide them a challenge. This becomes a basis for them to isolate themselves from the densities of the “normal” society. Furthermore as these youths mature they face the fear of their children going through the…

“and, one by one, Tanks creep and topple forward to the wire.” The meaning of this sentence is clear; the first World War was fought in trenches. Lining the perimeter of these trenches were barbed wire. This is what the sentence is referring to when it states that the Tanks crept and toppled “forward to the wire”. Beyond the barbed wire was “No Man’s Land”, a barren landscape filled with armed…

the placement of the gas tank and there was nothing that could be done as the tooling process had already began. Engineers discovered it due to the placement of the gas tank between the rear differential and the rear bumper; this would leave it vulnerable to damage during a rear end collision. Repeatedly from collisions the tank would rupture and expose gas which would cause the Pinto to go up in flames. If hit in rear at speeds of 40 miles per hour or above, the gas tank would rupture, doors…

they were in: kindergarten. I also talked to a teacher who had recently lost a class pet fish. The teacher told me that she used building a fish tank as a class project. Each of the children had a special job: filling the tank with water(several children), decorating the tank, finding a spot in the room for the tank, putting the fish inside the tank, etc. After the fish died, the teacher incorporated a lesson about the life cycle and coping with loss. 1. Which grade do you teach? •…

Just like the traditional tank, there is a sighting turret on the top of the vehicle. Leonardo da Vinci’s armoured car was designed to be powered by eight men inside the tank. With the use of cranks, they would be able to turn cranks in order to spin the wheels. Even with Leonardo da Vinci’s brilliant intelligence, the armoured car had one major issue. The tank could not travel forward because the cranks powering the wheels went in the opposite…

victorious. The flamethrower was a good part of ww2 the germans made considerable use of the weapon during their invasion of the Netherlands and France, against fixed fortifications. ww2 german army flamethrowers tended to have one large fuel tank with the pressurizer tank fastened to its back or side. Germany also made proximity fuzes shell fuzes aren't usually thought of as weapons. But Japanese pilots and German infantrymen learned otherwise. Ww2 was a good war for guns. The M1 Garand is a…

Ken’s “specialized gas tank” was not so special. So there we were, five girls, in an unfamiliar place, surrounded in traffic, panicking, trying to find a gas station. After cutting off at every individual stop sign and red light, we finally made it to the nearest gas station. Finally, after two more stops for gas, we made it back to Houston, Mississippi. We learned to always make sure we have gas, even if the gas hand says we do, and to never trust Ken’s “specialized” gas tank. So that is a…

World War I they had come up with Trench Warfare tactics, which is where the military’s ground troops would sit in trenches, dug below the surface of the ground, facing the advancing enemy ground troops. Something new to warfare in World War I were tanks. The earliest models were initially designed by the British and the French. They also had planes in World War I that had bombs, light bombs and held machine guns. However, military planes in today's society hold a lot more people plus they…
