Military Aviation Engines
It is well known in aircraft propulsion system design that it is more efficient to generate thrust by accelerating a large mass of air a small amount than by accelerating a small mass of air a large amount; propulsive efficiency increases as the ratio of exhaust velocity to free stream velocit... | <urn:uuid:c7a03ea5-7c0b-48cc-bab3-039dc2536e28> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/systems/engines-intro.htm | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783395039.24/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154955-00062-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.93323 | 2,832 | 3.8125 | 4 |
jet stream, narrow, swift currents or tubes of air found at heights ranging from 7 to 8 mi (11.3–12.9 km) above the surface of the earth. They are caused by great temperature differences between adjacent air masses. There are four major jet streams.

The English language is full of tricky words like the ones presented by there, their and they're. Most native English speakers pronounce these the same way (the words are known as homophones, having the same sound); therefore, it is difficult for some to determine which spelling to use.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Overeating and under-exercising may not be entirely to blame for the obesity epidemic.

In London, from 2006 to 2011, biking deaths increased by 50 percent, according to the BBC. So the city is looking at a plan to give residents and visitors safer rides—with a view.
A project called SkyCycle would install ten bike lanes above existing train lines, covering more than 130 miles criss-crossing London.

Kinetics is the study of the rate of reaction and the factors that affect it.
In order for a reaction to occur, the molecules must collide in the correct orientation with the minimum energy needed for the transition from the reactants to the products (the activation energy). Only a very few collisions meet these requir... | <urn:uuid:8d434370-85ef-4007-8fd2-9b97e0db6a12> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.chemistry24.com/ap_chemistry/kinetics.html | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783395166.84/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154955-00164-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.927287 | 538 | 4.53125 | 5 |
