may take on a whole new form in fifty years. With depleting resources and lack of automobile transportation‚ it is likely that our society will transition to more mass transit systems. A mechanism that fits this role would be high-speed trains‚ or bullet trains. High-speed trains run off of electricity and will help to save some resources and lower pollution levels. This would be a definite alternative to the gas guzzling and money losing airline industry and‚ as it evolves‚ could even partially replace

Such an ambitious strategy required a tremendous speed-up of the entire planning process‚ ranging from the national sales companies (NSC) to the assembly plants via the headquarters. Let us examine this planning process. At the start of each month‚ NSCs all over Europe define monthly sales forecasts for

I am arguing for the reasons why there shouldn’t be speed limits. My first reason is because sometimes people be having places to be. My second reason is because what’s the point of having speed limits if most people don’t follow them. My third reason is because a lot of people have their own speed. Usually when people are going past the speed limit it is because their rushing to be somewhere else. I think they should be allowed to travel fast to their location if there in a rush.

Pitch Constant Rotational Speed Wind Turbine Project Aims This project can be divided into 3 three parts. The first part is to develop a variable pitch propeller. Then second and the main aim of this project is to design a control mechanism by which the propellers would rotate at a constant speed‚ at varying wind speeds by adjusting their pitch. This would be achieved by using wind sensors (anemometer) and a microcontroller. The sensors would measure the wind speed and feed that to microcontroller

The speed of light is a well-established premise in physics. Centuries before‚ it was often heard by scientists like Johannes Kepler and Rene Descartes that the speed of light was infinite‚ having the ability to travel at any distance immediately. A notable physicist named Galileo Galilei was one of the first scientists to ponder this phenomenon of light‚ and how to determine the speed of this unknown. In order to do so‚ Galilei formulates an experiment with an assistant. While standing on one hilltop
