Fokker has a long history in aviation, starting in 1910 when Anthony Fokker built and flew the first Dutch-built plane to fly in the Netherlands. This plane was called, “the Spin (Spider)” which was the base for many more aircraft. In 1911 Anthony gained fame in the Netherlands, by flying the Spin around the tower of the St-.Bavokerk in Haarlem. Anthony saw a brighter future in Germany and decided to set up his first factory near Berlin. He started out by building a number of versions of “the Spin“
Coefficient of friction µk 0.027 Knowing these values the Motion, Work, and Energy can all be derived. The motion of the balls can be catagorized into two general catagories which are collisions and spin or rotation. Here the focus will be on collisions between the balls. The spin can have a significant effect on the motion of the ball, but due to time constraints and complexity of the science of it it will not be addressed to much detail. "An elastic collision between two
the Ball How and where you kick the ball is the most important aspect within the game of soccer. Lets say you kick the ball perfectly giving it no rotation (or spin), this means that you have given the ball a velocity (v) and an initial angular speed of zero. When the ball comes into contact with the ground it will begin to spin because the ground is not frictionless. The soccer ball will eventually begin to roll without slipping, which is when the balls center of mass is equal to its angular

brought up again. The cycle continues when Gilgamesh finally reaches Utnapishtim. Gilgamesh thinks he is very close to eternal life, but Utnapishtim destroys that hope when he tells Urshanabi to bring Gilgamesh back across the sea of death. The final spin in the cycle starts when Gilgamesh gets the thorny plant from the river floor. To Gilgamesh, this plant is much more than hope. It symbolizes the purpose of his life: to resurrect Enkidu. At this point, Gilgamesh thinks he has finally won. He has the
Raymond Vahan Damadian made many extremely important contributions to the world of nuclear medicine. Through schooling and hard work he was able to make large advances in magnetic resonance imaging. His dedication led him to invent what is now known as an MRI machine. MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging, a very important machine that is used in hospitals all around the world. The MRI machine is used solely to diagnose maladies in humans. It can be used to detect cancer, tumors, dementia, strokes
Cinematic Appropriations of The Great Gatsby Although Paramount's 1974 version of The Great Gatsby - the one with Robert Redford and Mia Farrow - is probably the most famous, there have actually been six attempts to flatten Fitzgerald's novel into two dimensions. The first was a silent film released in 1926. The second version, with Alan Ladd as Gatsby, appeared in 1949. Two television adaptations followed, one with Robert Montgomery in 1955 and the other with Robert Ryan in 1958. The controversial

Just as the wheel is circular, so are the events in his life. Ignatius moves through his own bildingsroman, showing qualities of a genius in his words and qualities of a dunce in his actions at the Night of Joy, Levy
most of their time. Bedding, floor crevices, carpeting, along baseboards and areas near their favorite sleeping and napping sites are especially likely places where eggs will be found. These eggs hatch into larvae, which are baby fleas. The larvae spin a cocoon and, depending on environmental conditions, emerge as adults in as few as five days. The adult fleas then mate after a blood meal and then lay eggs. The life cycle is then repeated--until control measures break the cycle. The total life cycle
it keeps the Cp behind the Cg. This is important because the rocket is pushed by the force of the exhaust coming out the back. If the Cp was in front of the Cg, the rocket would want to spin around (so that its back was pointing forwards).. However, because the exhaust is always pushing the rocket forward, it spins around again and again... and you get the picture from there. Fins So now that you know all about Cgs and Cps, it should make perfect sense what fins are for. Still a little confused
simply added for the sake of appeal. This practice falls under great scrutiny by those with a serious interest in the events that these movies portray. Because the better part of American viewers expect and demand stories told with the Hollywood spin, those films that attempt to stick doggedly to the facts generally do poorly in the box-office. [2] Many historical films, however, have found success while staying true to the facts. These films oftentimes come from producers, directors, and

At this time television had already been invented by some inventors such as Paul Nipkow and John Logie Baird, but they had only created mechanical television with spinning disks or mirrors. Philo new that you could not spin disks fast enough to create a moving picture. He only knew of one thing that could; the electron. One day Philo was daydreaming while disk harrowing a potato field with a two horse team. Row by row by row. Suddenly he got an idea that if he could

Yet he never forgets to guard his grandchildren waiting to jump in rain. Still, you see the eagerness of children if they could have been permitted to take a bath.

MOTOR BASICS BASIC COMPONENTS * Armature - Sometimes called a rotor. This is the part that spins. The armature can be either a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. * Stator - This is the part that doesn't move. The rotor spins in the magnetic field contained in the stator. HOW WORKS A MOTOR? The force that that turns the armature comes from the magnetic field of the armature trying to line up with the external magnetic field of the stator. This force is called torque. This
Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying, with its multiple narrators and hickish language, can sometimes prove to be convoluted and rather confusing. The narrators, unfortunately, are no less confusing. Their language aside, each individual personality serves to put a spin on the bias that the information is delivered with, and, in speaking to each other, they further confuse the reader, as their individual motives are, generally speaking, unmentioned. However, there is one character who manages to cut through the fog
dribbling, passing, and shooting. For baseball, catching, throwing and hitting. In table tennis, also known as ping-pong, the pieces that dictate its gameplay are spin, speed, placement and serving. Spin is a huge factor of table tennis. Because there are so many benefits to using spin, all of the top modern players are using it. Spin in table tennis is what the player puts on the ball, and it’s created with a brushing motion. Topspin is where the player makes... ... middle of paper ... ...every

Barry takes the traditional style of third person limited and adds a spin to it. In traditional third person limited, a narrator becomes a shadow of character, follows that character around, and tells what he or she sees happening. Barry's style of third person limited takes on a slight twist though. A reader could imagine
Evaluation of The Woman In Black On the 26/6/05 we went to see a performance called the women in black with all the pupils who chose drama as their gcse. We made our way to the coach and got ready to leave. The coach drove into London and everyone was very enthusiastic about seeing this play as it was supposed to be scary and most people there hadn’t been to the theatre. First we went to the theatre where we were given a preview of how they used lighting and sound on the stage. I was incredibly
