The Evolution of the Trope of Flying In Morrison’s Song of Solomon Flying is a trope which is depicted prominently in Toni Morrison’s book Song of Solomon. This trope appears in the book as a branch of magic realism and it provides the magical element within harshness and tepid realism. The trope unites all the different elements of the story together throughout the entire book. Obviously, flying is an important clue in the book and it is used for both literally and figuratively as a way to…

As the early morning sun begins to rise, my nest is bathed nest is bathed in the warmth of its heavenly yellow glow. I straighten my legs and stretch out my wide grey wings. I look at my neighbouring nests to ensure that they’re all sleeping, then I take off into flight. I love going for a fly every morning and today was no exception. There is just something calming about soaring through the air. There’s the wind rushing past you, tickling all your individual feathers. It is just a wonderful way…

by the ratio of static pressure (P-P_∞) over the dynamic pressure of the free stream (1/2 ρU_∞^2) using the equation: C_p=(P-P_∞)/(1/2 ρU_∞^2 ) . The lift coefficient (C_L) is determined by lift force over the freestream dynamic pressure times the wing area (S) C_L=L/(1/2 ρU_∞^2 S). Aerofoil is one of the most…

Aspect Ratio and Angular Momentum: Aspect ratios are usually considered between the length of the wings of the bird and the wing’s width. This factor determines how well the bird can perform during flight. This aspect ratio could affect many things: High Aspect Ratio: Balance: Long narrow wings for example will add to the stability and balance of a bird. The best example of this would be a tightrope walker, the long pole that person holds adds…

of flight, Morrison develops the characters in their quest for identity. The novel opens with a man by the name of Robert Smith attempting to fly from the roof of a hospital. He wrote in a letter “I will take off from Mercy and fly away on my own wings” (Morrison 3). While this is clearly an act of suicide, the people may not have thought this to be true. “A few of the half…

B. SIDELL ABSTRACT -- Puffins, one of the few wing-propelled diving birds, are specialized into a specific niche. By balancing the optimization of their bodies for locomotion between the two media of air and sea water created a unique anatomy for a bird. The evolution of Auks, which includes the puffin, shows a mixture of characteristics similar to those of the ultimate diving bird, the penguin, and the large-winged flyers, such as the pelican. Wing-propelled diving has evolved numerous times in…

average size for the genus. Each of the four wings of this dragonfly can move independently and are powered by powerful muscles. The wings normally beat 35 times per second and propel the dragonfly to speeds of 35 miles per hour. Dragonflies have a visual field of almost 360 degrees. The legs of dragonflies are not able to walk. The Warpaint Emerald Dragonfly is about 49-50 mm long in adults. The abdomen is approximately 38-47 mm and, the hind wing is about 31-37 mm long. This dragonfly has a…

Their repertoire of sounds range from uttering a liquid, rambling medley of soft caws, coos, clicks and rattles and rusty gate sounds. They may not be classified as songbirds, but they are every bit as interesting. Sleek black in color with inquisitive eyes, a loping gait and an intelligence level that far outreaches that of their lighter colored winged bretheren, the crow is a bird well worthy of our respect and admiration. Nearly every bird watching guide describes the American Crow as one of…
