High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Somerville is a New Jersey Transit railroad station on the Raritan Valley Line, in Somerville, New Jersey, south of the town center. The historical station building on the north side of the tracks has been restored and now is used by a law firm. Parking lots are located to the south of the station and there is a tunnel there to access the platforms. Like many of the stations on the Raritan Valley Line, Somerville is not a wheelchair accessible station. In 2004, the station's parking lot was expanded, toward the two railroad tracks, from the south side, to include parking for another 68 cars. These spaces are no longer available as a construction project is in progress. Данное...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sommerfeld Tracking was a lightweight wire mesh type of prefabricated airfield surface. It was developed by the British in 1941, and consisted of rolls 3.25m wide x 23m long. Sommerfeld Tracking was used extensively by the Royal Air Force in World War II to make runways at their airfields, as it could be deployed quickly. The ground was covered with a thick layer of coir (also known as Coco-Peat) first, and then the Sommerfield tracking was rolled out and then fastened into the ground with large spikes. It would appear that it did have some limitations and there are various reports of airfields being out of use during heavy rainfall due to mud, and the fact that the track would lift out of the...

Son of Beast is billed as the sequel to The Beast. At the time of its introduction in 2000, Son of Beast was the only wooden roller coaster in the top 10 categories (worldwide) that are typically dominated by steel-based coasters for track length, height, speed, and drop. It was also the only wooden roller coaster to feature a vertical loop, which was removed in 2006 after an incident in which 27 people were injured. The loop was not directly related to the incident, but was removed to allow for lighter trains, thus reducing the chances of the 2006 incident's...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Sonar is a 7 m (23 ft) one-design keelboat for three to five people. The boat is 7 m long. It has a beam (width) of 2.4 m and draft (depth) of 1.2 m. It weighs 950 kg, of which 408 kg is ballast, with a sail area of 23.2 m plus a 22.8 m spinnaker. It is bermuda-rigged, with a large mainsail and a 100% jib. The Sonar is usually crewed by four. The Sonar has been a Paralympic class since 2000. When being sailed by disabled it is crewed by 3, and sailed without a spinnaker. Instead, when running downwind a whisker pole is used to hold the jib out to windward for maximum exposed sail area. The Sonar is well suited for handicapped sailing because of its large cockpit making adaptations easy. The...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A sonic boom is the sound associated with the shock waves created by the supersonic flight of an aircraft. Sonic booms generate enormous amounts of sound energy, sounding much like an explosion. The crack of a supersonic bullet passing overhead is an example of a sonic boom in miniature. When an object passes through the air, it creates a series of pressure waves in front of it and behind it, similar to the bow and stern waves created by a boat. These waves travel at the speed of sound, and as the speed of the object increases, the waves are forced together, or compressed, because they cannot "get out of the way" of each other, eventually merging into a single shock wave at the speed of sound....

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Sonicare is an electric toothbrush manufactured by Philips. The brush head vibrates at hundreds of times per second, with the latest models at 31,000 strokes per minute. Rather than connecting to its charger with conductors, it utilizes inductive charging—the charger includes the primary winding of the voltage-reducing transformer and the fat handle of the brush includes the secondary winding. The magnetic field is not shorted out by spilled liquids around the sink, as an electric field would be. The replaceable head is also driven magnetically. In 1987, David Giuliani, an entrepreneur with a background in electrical engineering, met with University of Washington professors Drs. David Engel...

Supersonic travel can significantly save time and cost with non stop flight from the USA to countries in Asia, Europe and Japan. It is understood that the development of high speed supersonic jets is increasingly demanded in the commercial and military sectors. Supersonic travel over land would be a reality only if new aircraft's are designed such that they produce quieter ground sonic booms. Designers are compelled to work on CFD modeling and aerodynamic shape optimization so that they can address the boom constrained imposed by the FAA while not degrading the aerodynamic performance. The computational tools that can predict sonic boom focusing effect with much higher accuracy are in great demand for supersonic transport aircraft...

Some sonic weapons are currently in limited use or in research and development by military and police forces. Others exist only in the realm of science fiction. Some of these weapons have been described as sonic bullets, sonic grenades, sonic mines, or sonic cannons. Some make a focused beam of sound or ultrasound; some make an area field of sound. Although many real sonic and ultrasonic weapons are described as "non-lethal", they can still kill under certain conditions. Данное издание не является оригинальным. Книга печатается...
