The mast turns on a gimbal or device to level the arrays and keep it facing the Sun. There are a total of four pairs of wings, each with two arrays measuring 112 feet long by 39 feet wide, and along with its assemblies are called a "photo-voltaic module." 2, record 1, English, - telescoping%20mast

When lift trucks were first introduced, they had fixed masts. This meant that the mast of the truck had to be as high as the distance that the load was to be lifted. When it was found that in some application the trucks would be traveling in low-ceiling areas and yet have the need for higher stacking, the telescoping mast was developed. 1, record 4, English, - telescoping%20mast
