can be considered analogous to sensory cells of the antennae of invertebrates. In humans‚ olfaction occurs when odorant molecules bind to specific sites on the olfactory receptors. These receptors are used to detect the presence of smell. They come together at the glomerulus‚ a structure which transmits signals to the olfactory bulb (a brain structure directly above the nasal cavity and below the frontal lobe).[2] Many vertebrates‚ including most mammals and reptiles‚ have two distinct olfactory systems—the

SHAMINMENISHA How Water Rockets Work A water rocket works using the same principles as other rockets. There are three main forces in action: thrust (Fapp)‚ drag (Ffr) and weight (w=mg). The water‚ which is forced out by the difference between internal and atmospheric pressure‚ is a reaction mass that provides the thrust. All rockets have a reaction mass‚ which can vary from hot gasses that are expelled when a fuel is burnt (in the Space Shuttle’s SRB’s for example) to water in a water rocket. The

How a Pogo Stick Works The pogo stick is a mechanical device that utilizes the spring’s ability to store energy. In this paper I will explain how the toy uses the laws of physics to provide hours of fun. There are a lot of forces acting on you and the pogo stick as you bounce along. We’ll take an in depth look at all of these forces and what part they play in the overall functioning of pogo sticks. The physical aspects can be broken down into sections to get a better understanding of what is going
