Reasons Why It’s Small Aircraft Wheels
Earlier fit again googling ane, ane nemuin why how small the aircraft tires, good image 2 and the explanation can add all of science agan2
Aircraft tire is designed specifically to be able to withstand heavy loads, provide comfort to the passenger, and survived when the plane moving down the runway at speeds high enough
Actually, the size of an aircraft tire is almost equal to the size of car tires. Indeed, this size seems small when compared with the size of the aircraft. Why choose a small tire, because tires with too large size makes it difficult to hold the tire heavy torque plane.
Tire tire plane is not solid. Inside is a gas / air with a pressure large enough, about six times greater than the passenger car tire pressure. The pressure of this magnitude required to hold the weight of large aircraft. Flexibility or deflection (height difference before and after the tire is installed) aircraft tires about 2-3 times greater than car tires.
This high flexibility makes the aircraft more comfortable passenger when the plane landed. Ban is also expected to survive the plane when the aircraft moving at speeds around 340 km / h or about twice the maximum speed of the car.
aircraft tire groove construction compound seemed designed to ngurangin friction / friction, so kliatan simple really. ato kalo pake superswamper tire hoe, the way could gredeg–gredeg time yah?
Virgin’s Deep Flight Challenger
Who manned Submarine Can Achieve Deepest Sea
Richard Branson, owner of Virgin companies, in early April it announced the latest mission of Virgin, Virgin Oceanic‘s. This mission aims to send a submarine pilot to 5 points in every ocean of the deepest ocean existing in the world with submarines, known as the Deep Flight Challenger. Created by Hawkes Ocean Technologies, where the idea originally found by Steve Fossett, the pilot as well as adventurers who died before he could complete the journey to the Mariana Trench, 36,201 feet below sea level. The trench is the deepest place on the planet.
Now, Richard Branson and his partner Chris Welsh plans to continue the idea of Steve Fosset, with the aim to increase human knowledge in the field of marine research as well as explore the place which has not been touched humans. The first dive will be conducted this year (2011) in the Mariana Trench (deepest point of the ocean) which is located in the Pacific ocean. This submarine will break the world record as the first submarine capable of carrying human who reaches the point of the deepest sea.
“Ships along the 5.5 meters that will dive up to 10 972. meters (36 thousand feet),“ Branson said during a press conference in Newport Beach, California.
Richard Branson owner of Virgin Group, stressed that the ship is worth 17 million dollars rather than as a means of tourism can reply messages and the ride with the cost of certain payments by certain circles, the boat is fully intended for research and breaking world records.
