Introduction When Henry Cavendish discovered hydrogen in 1774 and Joseph Priestley found oxygen in 1776‚ neither man would expect the effect these elements could have on modern science‚ namely rockets. But creating a rocket is just combining these two gases in a closed environment‚ and one spark. This lab exemplifies just that what happens when the gases H2 and O2 are chemically combined with a spark. In this lab‚ the objective was to see how far a pipette filled H2 and O2 could travel. One half

The UGM-84A‚ or the Harpoon missile is an anti-ship missiles capable of engaging a variety of targets. Through technological advancements‚ harpoons can now be incorporated into every naval platform in order to combat various enemies. With its built in radar‚ targets can now be detected at longer rangers and precisely eliminated. This radar system also allows for efficient guidance during flight path. Each missile has a different launch sequence‚ and varying bandwidths. This allows each to specialize
