Magnetohydrodynamic drive In concept‚ MHD is attractive because it offers a propulsion system that requires no moving parts. It works on a principle similar to that of an electric motor or generator; that is‚ passing an electrical current through a magnetic field creates a force. In an MHD propulsion system‚ a magnetic field is created within the hull‚ and sea water is used to conduct the electric current‚ as shown in the illustrations accompanying this story. The underlying principle is known

Learning to Drive The sun was just rising as I followed my father outside. I had no idea what was so important that I needed to be awake at the crack of dawn‚ but he sure was excited about it. When I looked down the driveway I couldn’t believe my eyes. There sat a brand new Audi A6. I sprinted over to it and ran my hands over the glassy smooth hood. “Jordan‚ you earned this car‚” my father said. “You’ve been busting your ass off in school and around the house‚ and your mother and I want

Flash Drives A common property of mass storage systems based on magnetic or optic technology is that physical motion‚ such as spinning disks‚ moving read/write heads‚ and aiming laser beams‚ is required to store and retrieve data. This means that data storage and retrieval is slow compared to the speed of electronic circuitry. Flash memory technology has the potential of alleviating this drawback. In a flash memory system‚ bits are stored by sending electronic signals directly to the storage medium

It views all relationship behaviour as a series of exchanges based on rewards‚ costs and profit. Each person attempts gain the most out of the relationship and lose the least. The exchange element occurs when individuals receive rewards and thus feel obliged to reciprocate‚ such as a person being hugged
