Describe the functions of the canadarm?
. Unfortunately, I don't know ALL the functions but I do know one main function. The canadarm's function assists astronauts as they work and moves equipment around the station. :)
How parallax introduces errors in reading analog meters?
You get parallax errors with analogue meters if you don't align your eye so that it is perpendicular to the pointer. When this happens the pointer can appear to line up with the wrong mark on the scale. The further your point of view is away from the perpendicular, the greater the error. The potential for errors can be reduced by minimizing the gap between the pointer and the scale or better still fitting a mirror behind the pointer so that it is in the same plane as the scale. The mirror assists the viewer find the correct point of view, since in this condition (correct point of view) the reflection of the pointer will be hidden behind the pointer.
Why has nobody landed on the sun?
-- It's a bit too hot. -- It has no surface. -- Every pound of material launched from Earth weighs about 2,800 pounds in the sun's close-in neighborhood. -- The temperature there is above the boiling point of every chemical element and compound. Nothing you could launch from Earth, whether man or machine, could arrive there in a recognizable form. -- Radio communication with anything near the sun is impossible, because the sun itself is a loud source of radio noise. -- In terms of fuel and energy required, that would be the most difficult target in the solar system. It took seven years and several planetary fly-bys and gravity assists to coax a space-probe as deep into the inner solar system as Mercury.
What are Voyager 1 and voyager 2?
These are spacecraft, see the related links.The Voyager 1 spacecraft is a 722-kilogram (1,592 lb) robotic space probe of the outer Solar System and beyond, launched September 5, 1977. It still receives commands from, and transmits information to Earth, currently pursuing its extended mission to locate and study the boundaries of the solar System, including the Kuiper belt and beyond.The Voyager 2 spacecraft is an unmanned interplanetary space probe launched on August 20, 1977. Voyager 2 was launched on a slower, more curved trajectory that allowed it to be kept in the plane of the Ecliptic (the plane of the Solar System) so that it could be sent on to Uranus and Neptune by means of utilizing gravity assists during its fly-by of Saturn in 1981 and of Uranus in 1986.
Why does shuttle rotate on take-off?
As we explained in two earlier questions about max q, or maximum dynamic pressure, the Shuttle reaches a point about one minute after launch when the pressure force of the atmosphere rushing past the rapidly accelerating rocket reaches a peak. The roll maneuver is performed shortly before max q is reached because this "heads-down" orientation helps alleviate the stresses that the dynamic pressure loads cause on the vehicle's structure. The second factor we need to consider is that for each mission, the Shuttle must launch at a certain azimuth angle in order to be inserted into the correct orbital plane. Since the launch pad (and therefore the Shuttle) sits in a fixed position, the Shuttle must perform a roll maneuver during ascent in order to orient itself to achieve the desired launch azimuth angle. If it were possible to rotate the launch pad prior to launch, the pad could simply be rotated to accomodate the launch azimuth angle, and the Shuttle could launch into a heads-down orientation while gradually pitching over during ascent. Finally, the Shuttle orbits such that its cargo bay faces towards the Earth. The heads-down position assists in communications with the ground and allows instruments within the cargo bay to be pointed back towards Earth, which is required for many of the experiments carried within the bay. There is probably also some psychological benefit to the crew since they are given spectacular views of home rather than staring into the cold darkness of the great void of space.- answer by Aaron Brown, 8 June 2003 The above answer was found on the internet using google on September 25, 2008, by Eduardo Linares Batres elinaresbatres@gmail.com
What does a biological science technician do?
A Biological Technician assists biological and medical scientists, maintains laboratory equipment, takes calculations and makes evaluations, and sometimes observes organic substances, such as food, blood, or drugs.
How can a medical model help someone with depression?
Depression, since it involves imbalances in brain chemistry, is very much a medical issue. A medical model helps scientists understand the underlying causes, and assists in developing treatments.
