Why do many cars have a gearbox? Introduction Gearbox is an enclosed system of assembled gears that transmits mechanical energy from a prime mover to an output device. A gearbox can also change the speed‚ direction‚ or torque of mechanical energy.[1] Gearbox was invented in the 19th century and it is still being widely used today. In the early age and in some part of the world‚ gearbox is also known as transmission. Merriam-Webster defines transmission as: an assembly of parts including the speed-changing

The vagus nerve is the tenth of the twelve brain nerves. The vagus nerve contributes to the feelings associated with infections such as appetite‚ fatigue and induction of disease behavior. It extends from the brainstem to the abdomen‚ with branches in the neck‚ thorax and abdomen 68. The vagus nerve is part of the autonomic nervous system‚ has efferent fibers‚ ascending signals from the brain to the peripheral organs‚ as well as afferent sensory fibers‚ and transmits information from the peripheral

Automatic Transmissions Work by Karim Nice If you have ever driven a car with an automatic transmission‚ then you know that there are two big differences between an automatic transmission and a manual transmission: There is no clutch pedal in an automatic transmission car. There is no gear shift in an automatic transmission car. Once you put the transmission into Drive‚ everything else is automatic! Both the automatic transmission (plus its torque converter) and a manual transmission (with its

Site Plan | I. Neurons/nerve cells A neuron is a cell specialized to conduct electrochemical impulses called nerve impulses or action potentials. Neuron is the main cellular component of the nervous system‚ a specialized type of cell that integrates electrochemical activity of the other neurons that are connected to it and that propagates that integrated activity to other neurons. They are the basic information processing structures in the CNS.

Cranial Nerves The human body is a unique and fascinating entity. There is not much notice taken of the features the human body is capable of. The brain is necessary to perform day-to-day actions‚ such as the ability to speak‚ and see amongst us. This brain is made up of simple mater (Pia mater‚ Arachnoid mater‚ Dura mater) and the cranial surface to protect the brain. We live our daily lives without acknowledging the importance of this organ‚ the brain‚ unless you’re a medical student of
