Understanding How Airplanes Fly The Four Fundamental Forces When an aircraft is flying straight and level, it is subject to four primary forces: lift, gravity, thrust, and drag.These forces interact to maintain equilibrium: Lift counters gravity, while thrust counters drag.Thrust: This force propels the airplane forward through the air and is generated by a propeller or jet engine. Drag: The resistance of air that acts to slow the airplane's forward motion. Gravity: The natural force that pulls all objects toward the Earth. Lift: An upward force generated by the airflow above and below ...

Statistics has played a leading role in our scientific understanding of the world for centuries, yet we are all familiar with the way statistical claims can be sensationalised, particularly in the media. In the age of big data, as data science becomes established as a discipline, a basic grasp of statistical literacy is more important than ever. In The Art of Statistics, David Spiegelhalter guides the listener through the essential principles we need in order to derive knowledge from data.

Life is uncertain. We are all the result of an unforeseen and unforeseeable sequence of small occurrences. But what underlies this fragile chain of events? Is it random or just complex? And what role does luck play in our lives? David Spiegelhalter has spent his career crunching data in order to help understand uncertainty and assess the chances of what might happen. In The Art of Uncertainty, he gives listeners a window onto how we can all do this better.

Buddhist philosophers say that our "Self" is an illusion and that we can be much happier once we recognize this hallucination and learn to live without a Self. What does this mean? I think the Buddhists mean we need to escape from the dictates of our EGO. But, what would life without an ego be like? Can we exist in the real world without an ego?The story of Jill Bolte Taylor, as told in her book My Stroke of Insight offers insight into what life might be like without an ego. Her experience also suggests that we need our ego, but - as the Buddhists suggest - we need to keep limit it's influence...

Within a few years, humans will be able to voyage to Mars. SpaceX is at the forefront of companies already building fleets of spaceships to make interplanetary travel as affordable as Old-World passage to America – to the New World. We will settle the red planet, transforming its raw materials into resources and tackling the challenges that await us, creating a new frontier for humankind. Dr Robert Zubrin explains how populous Martian city-states will emerge, producing their own air, water, food, power and more. How they must be beautiful to attract settlers, and what that might look like.

Elemental, fierce, and full of wonder, the Cairngorm mountains are the high and rocky heart of Scotland. To know them would take forever, to love them demands a kind of courageous surrender.

Following in the footsteps and contours of The Living Mountain, she explores the same landscapes and themes as Shepherd's seminal work

I did not until recently even consider the cerebellum when thinking about psychiatric conditions, but the more I read, the more I wonder why the cerebellum is not considered a potential important player in nearly every psychiatric disorder. Although it can be said that all brain regions primarily function to make predictions, the cerebellum is especially active at refining impromptu predictions through short periods of time as sensory data changes to help us better navigate the world, not only in physical space, but our entire internal space.Please leave feedback at https://www.psydactic.com...

The Most Comprehensive Book on Bearded Dragon Nutrition in the Universe*.Why this book? Because if you've done any research into bearded dragons, you know finding reliable, science-backed information is pure torture. Thanks to the relatively recent arrival of beardies into the US pet scene, the guidance you'll find tends to be more folklore and urban myth than actionable advice. Then people start arguing, and you might as well give up and get a hamster, because DragonMama95 has you convinced that your choice of substrate will make your lizard turn inside out. That's why I — fellow bearded...

The War on Ivermectin is the personal and professional narrative of Dr. Pierre Kory, the co-founder of an expert group of physicians, and his plight to alert the world of his group's identification of ivermectin as a highly effective, life-saving, widely available generic medicine with an obvious ability to end the global pandemic.

This book is about science and how it works. It is about what it means for a paradigm to shift and what it really takes to shift it. And it is about the strange and unusual world of quantum physics and what it tells us about who we are. At the start of the 20th Century, a dramatic revolution in science occurred. Over the course of a few decades our most fundamental notions of time, space and consciousness were all being called into question. In undeniable ways, it became clear that the nature of reality is intimately interwoven with our experience of it.
