An airboat.

They use them in the Everglades because there's no prop in the water to hurt the alligators, but they're also great in the North. They use flat-bottom Jon boats to make these, so they slide over ice very well.

What is the stern tube of a ship?

It is a tunnel-like opening at the vessel's stern, through which the propeller or tail shaft passes, in order to connect the propeller to the engine.


How does a propeller move a object?

A propeller moves an object by generating thrust through the rotation of its blades. As the blades spin, they create a pressure difference between the front and back of the propeller, pushing air or water in one direction and creating a force that propels the object forward.


Where was the propeller in the ship?

The propeller or the "prop" or "screw" is the device that propels the vessel through the water by spinning , this is different from a jet drive, which sucks in water and shoots it out to push the vessel through the water.


How does a propeller vehicle use air resistance?

A propeller vehicle uses air resistance to generate forward thrust. As the propeller spins, it creates a pressure difference between the front and back of the propeller, causing the vehicle to move forward. The air resistance acts against the motion of the propeller, helping to propel the vehicle forward.

How do rivers maintain a continuous flow of water?

Rivers maintain a continuous flow of water through a process called the water cycle. This cycle involves evaporation of water from the river into the atmosphere, condensation into clouds, and precipitation back into the river as rain or snow. Additionally, rivers are replenished by groundwater seepage and melting snow from higher elevations.


Why do you say that the earth's water is recycled?

Because it just is recycled. The water cycle moves water out of oceans and rivers into the atmosphere. It falls as precipitation and runs into rivers and dams. We drink it and wash in it and flush it back into the rivers where the sun soaks it up into the atmosphere again. A cycle!


Why do rivers not runs through the Sahara desert anymore?

The Nile does, straight through. And the Volga goes into the desert and turns around and comes back out.


Can a ship's propeller having four controllable pitch propellers be replaced with two blade propellers?

It is possible to replace one kind of propeller (sometimes called a screw) with another kind. When moving to the "less complex" two blade propeller, the mechanisms that control the pitch of the blades of the propeller with pitch control will be abandoned or removed. There may be a lot more to this, but the basic answer is that you can replace one kind of propeller with another kind, as long as the "handedness" of the screw is the same as the one coming off. Or you'll go backwards in "Ahead" and ahead in "Back" on the direction selector.


How are earth's reservoirs connected to the ocean?

Earth's reservoirs, such as rivers and lakes, are connected to the ocean through the water cycle. Water evaporates from the ocean's surface, forms clouds, and falls back to Earth as precipitation. This precipitation replenishes reservoirs and eventually flows back to the ocean through rivers and streams, completing the cycle.


The transfer of water through the ground back to the sea?

The transfer of water through the ground and back to the sea is called precipitation.


How do propellers work in reverse thrust?

The propeller blades are angled in the opposite direction, sort of like an airplane flying on its back. Of course, the propeller's blade twist from hub to tip is inappropriate, and the camber of the airfoil is wrong when thrust is reversing, but efficiency of the propeller is not of paramount importance during that phase of operation.
