Purpose: The Purpose of this Lab is to discover which launch angles give the birds the longest and shortest time in flight. Hypothesis: I believe that the bird will launch the farthest at the 45 degree angle because that’s exactly half of 90 degrees which will give it the maximum height in comparison to length. I also think that the bird will launch the shortest at 0 degrees because it will go a very short distance because it has such a steep launch angle. Apparatus: Materials:

ARTIFICIAL SATELLITES INTRODUCTION: An Artificial Satellite is a people-made machine that orbits a variety of other objects in space. Many Artificial Satellites orbit the Earth to gather information about the universe‚ to predict the weather‚ to help with the navigation of ships and planes‚ to assist in telephone calls over the ocean‚ to observe the Earth‚ and as a tool to improve military activities. Though Artificial Satellites have mostly orbited Earth‚ some have orbited the moon‚ the sun

Management Plan 1. Risk management plan summarizes risk management approach‚ list methodologies and processes‚ defines everyone’s role – definition of risk management plan. NASA was using for the most part qualitative risk assessment process. Launch of the shuttle was allowed as long as aggregate risk remained acceptable. Quantitive method was applied for risk assessment because if the complex procedures (like data gathering) were in place NASA would be buried with paperwork. NASA’s culture

request to launch the "Healthy Berry Crunch" brand in France? Is yes‚ for what reasons? If no‚ on what basis? Central to Lora Brill’s dilemma of whether to launch “Healthy Berry Crunch” in France is the potential gain from the first-mover advantage by launching the product now versus increased market visibility and certainly by launching the product later after proper market research. Adding to the pressure to make a quick decision is the rumor that Cereal Partners is planning to launch Berry Burst

and why? Jenkins believes that the struggling Biometra is having in the product launch derives from a combination of factors whose responsibilities are shared among SciMat top Management (including Jenkins) and Peterson himself as the general manager of the company. We can summarize them in three main points: * Lack of support from SciMat management * Peterson weak management and leadership of the launch * Peterson inappropriate personal decisions Jenkins view of Biometra problems

The cargo is commonly referred to as the payload. A rocket is called a launch vehicle when it is used to launch a satellite or other payload into space. A rocket becomes a missile when the payload is a warhead and it is used as a weapon. At present‚ rockets are the only means capable of achieving the altitude and velocity necessary to put a
