1.Introduction
A rocket engine, or simply "rocket", is a jet engine that uses only stored propellant mass for forming its high speed propulsive jet. Rocket engines are reaction engines and obtain thrust in accordance with Newton's third law. Since they need no external material to form their jet, rocket engines can be used for spacecraft propulsion as well as terrestrial uses, such as missiles.Rocket engines as a group have the highest exhaust velocities, are by far the lightest, but are the least propellant efficient of all types of jet engines.
2.Need of Plasma Arc Propulsion
We identify that most of the propulsion process comes under liquid and solid propulsion, but never been implemented on magnet or solar saving fuel systems. Usually solid and liquid propellant produces high thrust, but the problem of solid and liquid propellant is high cost and produce environment effect. In that time very high thrust can be produced by the magnetic plasma arc propulsion system and also it should not affect an environment because inert gases are used in this system. In these system an electromagnetic fields are accelerates the positive and negative charged particles (Plasma) to a very high velocity.
3.Modeling Process
Electromagnetic plasma arc propulsion an advanced modeling apart from the solid and liquid propellant. The propulsion systems were designed according to the same principle of solid and liquid propellant. Most of the rocket engine, the solid has gradient and the liquid has oxidizer and fuel tanks, but the Electromagnetic plasma arc propulsion works on the principle of magnetic principle were coils are made surrounded in Quartz Tube and fuel are converted to energy and and release the plasma arc. We look the studies of ...

The paragraph above relates to model rockets because our rockets motor is made up of a special fuel. The fuels two reactants are Potassium Nitrate and sugar or sucrose. When these two reactants are mixed together and ignited they create a violent combustion. When my rocket is launched it will have it’s fuel ignited. The two reactants will combust and produce an exhaust that pushes the rocket forward.

Antimatter rockets were proposed in the early 1950s by a German scientist, Eugen Sanger. This rocket would have a speed of about 3×〖10〗^7 m/s . It would produce “energetic gamma rays” which causes to travel about the speed of light (Mallove, 49).
In this paper you will learn so much about rockets you can become a rocket specialist. Many may ask how do rockets work? Many will respond that they are pushed against something but that is wrong. Since rocket's main purpose are to travel in space where there is nothing, not even air they can not rely on “something” to push themselves against in space. This is the right answer to how rockets work; Rockets use fuel, they burn the fuel and it turns into hot gas.
The purpose of this paper is to talk about magnetic monopoles, their history, synthetic monopoles, and their applications. Although natural monopoles have yet to be discovered and we are still testing the development of synthetic monopoles that are far from perfect, monopoles, with their unique properties would bring dramatic changes to our society and would rapidly move up to the next level of technology. Hypothetically speaking, monopoles could be used to create a magnetic train similar to maglevs, and a unique motor/generator.
NASA’s goal of faster, better, cheaper has been the motivation for them to develop new mission concepts, and to validate never-before-used technologies in space. The new technologies, if proven to work, will revolutionize space exploration in the next century. According to NASA’s New Millennium Program home page, last updated on September 16,1999, NASA’s current project of Deep Space 1 demonstrates some of their most exotic technologies. One of the most impressive is the testing of an ion engine that is supposed to be 10 times more efficient than liquid or solid rocket engines. Deep Space 1 was launched on October 24, 1998. It is the first mission under NASA’s New Millennium Program, which features flight testing of new technology, rather than science as its main focus (Rayman 4). These new technologies will make spacecraft of the future smaller, more economical, reliable, and closer to the goal of efficient space travel.
The Physics of an Electric Motor An electric motor is a device used to convert electric energy into rotational kinetic energy. There are two different types of electric motors, and each has its own use. The different types are direct current and alternating current motors. Each of these motors will be analyzed in the following steps.

In this day and age with oil prices rising and the recession hitting everyone, more people are looking for more ways to save on cost of the most used items. Electricity is the most common and used item people use in everyday life, but what they do not know is that there is a simpler way to produce electricity with magnets. How do magnets produce electricity? Why not use magnets to produce all electricity? These questions are common in people that research different avenues to provide electricity without having to spend a fortune on other renewable energy sources. Magnets and all their uniqueness is the key to the future discoveries and creation of new machines that produce electricity without using fossil fuels.
Humans can expect to face some major challenges on an expedition to Mars. It has been proven that humanity can travel in space for over two years. Cumulatively, Sergei Constantinovich Krikalev, a Russian cosmonaut, has spent over eight-hundred and three days in Earth orbit (Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, 2005). The expedition to Mars would require the crew to endure a six month journey to the planet, a year of living on the planet, and a six months journey back to Earth. Russian cosmonaut, Valery V. Polyakoz, clocking in at four-hundred and thirty-eight days for just one stay in Earth orbit, shows humanity is capable of a twelve month round trip to Mars (Schwirtz, 2009).
NASA’s planned missions to Mars, should it come to fruition, will be the furthest distance any human being has ever traversed. While this is an impressive feat in and of itself, it becomes even more so when one takes into acco...
Electrical motors play an important role in today’s society, from powering domestic appliances like blenders to industrial equipment such as trains. It almost seems impossible to not use an electric motor in our daily lives. In the comfort of our home, electric motors will operate fans, refrigerators, and air conditioners to just name a few. Researchers are constantly looking for new ways to incorporate electrical motors into our lives. Electrical motors function by converting electrical energy into mechanical energy by using the energy stored in the magnetic field (Sarma, 1981).
