Rocket Man I am finally ready. The ever so daunting transition between childhood and adulthood was now staring me in the face. After almost eighteen years of laughter‚ love and tears. The world around me had slowly but methodically changed me for the better. And it was not till now that I realised how unbelievably thankful I am for it. For every pain there was a pleasure‚ for every failure there was hope and for every angered word held back from my mouth‚ there were moments of pure happiness. It

part was when Homer Hickam finally achieved to launch his rocket sky high. Plot: Homer Hickam had problems with launching rockets at first because the rockets didn’t have the chemicals needed so the rockets can’t fly so far from he launches them. Conclusion: Homer Hickam had to use other chemicals instead of the one he was using and needed to build new parts for the rockets. He changed the fuel and try to launch the rocket. The rocket with the new fuel flies correctly. Summary The story

They were all passionate about their work and took it very seriously. Their teacher‚ Miss Riley‚ who wanted them to have better lives instead of becoming coal miners like most people in their town‚ further encouraged them. The Rocket Boys‚ as they were known‚ were determined to build this rocket and did not easily

DESCRIPTION The Centripetal Acceleration lab consists of using a pendulum bob swinging continuously. This will help see the F_max(tension) and F_(mean )(weight of the pendulum)‚ net force (N) and v_mean(velocity). RESULTS When starting the lab the first thing to do is to measure the cylinder properties (the bob) in table one. The measurements were: diameter (D) is .0815m‚ height (H) is .025 m‚ mass is .06591 kg‚ and the 〖Weight〗_theory W is .645918 Mg‚N. Second thing to do is to launch from
