HALIFAX class frigates carry a formidable array of weapons and sensor systems including 8 Harpoon long-range, surface-to-surface missiles, 16 Sea Sparrow surface-to-air missiles, a Bofors 57mm rapid-fire gun, a 20mm Phalanx anti-missile close-in-weapons-system (CIWS), 8 x 12.7mm machine guns and 24 anti-submarine homing torpedoes. In addition, the ships can defend themselves using infra-red suppression, Shield decoys, chaff, flares, a towed acoustic decoy, and radar and sonar jamming devices. The ship’s torpedo-carrying helicopter significantly extends its range of operational effectiveness. 2, record 17, English, - Halifax%20class

How can we make the engine more efficient without giving up a single horsepower of performance when we need it? These days, the answer is engine downspeeding. This is not a reduction in the size of the engine; instead, it's a reduction in the rpm [revolutions per minute] of the engine, especially at highway cruising speeds between 61 and 68 miles per hour. Downspeeding allows the engine to cruise in its sweet spot, reducing friction and increasing fuel efficiency. 1, record 22, English, - engine%20downspeeding

La sensación térmica en invierno. En invierno este valor depende de la combinación de temperatura y viento, ya que son estos factores los que aumentan la sensación de frío: la diferencia entre la temperatura de la piel (32 ºC) y la del aire, y el efecto del viento, que acelera la pérdida de calor del cuerpo. Por ejemplo, un día con una temperatura de 0 ºC y con el viento en calma, la sensación térmica será de 0 ºC. Si a esa misma temperatura sopla un viento de 25 km/h (7 m/s) la sensación será de -6 ºC. 4, record 28, Spanish, - %C3%ADndice%20de%20enfriamiento%20e%C3%B3lico

A specialized machine called a ladder trencher, or ditcher, is effective for opening trenches for utility lines, telephone cables, drainage and sewer lines, and the like. It consists of two main components : a crawler, or rubber-tired carrier, and a digging mechanism. Depending on the soil condition and the depth of the trench to be excavated, the trencher can move at a speed of up to 2 miles(3. 2 kilometers) per hour. It has a long boom, and an endless chain rotates along the boom. Buckets or clamshells attached to this chain dig at the bottom of the trench, bring up excavated material, and unload it onto a conveyer while the machine moves slowly along. The width of the excavated trench ranges between 18 and 60 inches(46 and 152 centimeters). Ladder trencher can be used for digging depths of up to 20 feet(6 meters). 2, record 35, English, - ladder%20ditcher

The speed of light in a vacuum is an important physical constant denoted by the letter c for "constant" or the Latin word "celeritas" meaning "swiftness". It is the speed of all electromagnetic radiations, including visible light, in a vacuum. More generally, it is the speed of anything having zero rest mass.... In metric units, the speed of light is exactly 299, 792, 458 metres per second(1, 079, 252, 848. 8 km/h). The fundamental SI unit of length, the metre, has been defined since October 21, 1983, as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299, 792, 458 of a second; any increase in the precision of the measurement of the speed of light would refine the definition of the metre, but not alter the numerical value of c. The approximate value of 3x108 m/s is commonly used in rough estimates. In imperial units, the speed of light is about 670, 616, 629. 2 miles per hour or 983, 571, 056 feet per second, which is about 186, 282, 397 miles per second, or roughly one foot per nanosecond. The speed of light when it passes through a transparent or translucent material medium, like glass or air, is slower than its speed in a vacuum. The ratio of c to the observed phase velocity is called the refractive index of the medium. 5, record 37, English, - speed%20of%20light

When strong winds of 40 to 50 miles per hour are blowing perpendicular to a mountain range, expect mountain waves and strong downdrafts for many miles on the leeward side. The presence of mountain waves can be identified by lenticular(lens shaped) clouds on the downwind side of the mountains. Rotor winds are also associated with this wind condition.

Alors que la solution permettant la diminution des transits consiste d'abord en une politique nouvelle d'infrastructure, le désencombrement de la zone centrale ne peut être traité de la même manière. Si chacun est convaincu de l'impossibilité d'ouvrir de nouvelles voies de surface en zone dense, d'aucuns imaginent qu'il suffit de créer des voies souterraines. Des projets ont existé pour Paris; [...]. Outre le coût gigantesque de tels ouvrages, conduisant à des péages prohibitifs et donc à une rentabilité incertaine, le simple bon sens montre que l'on ne ferait ainsi que déplacer l'encombrement, puisqu'il faut bien utiliser la voirie de surface pour entrer et sortir des tunnels. 3, record 41, French, - voie%20souterraine

The vortex circulation is outward, upward and around the wing tips when viewed from either ahead or behind the aircraft. Tests with large aircraft have shown that the vortices remain spaced a bit less than a wingspan apart, drifting with the wind, at altitudes greater than a wingspan from the ground. In view of this, if persistent vortex turbulence is encountered, a slight change of altitude and lateral position (preferably upwind) will provide a flight path clear of the turbulence. 3, record 42, English, - vortex%20turbulence

tourbillon en bout d'aile; tourbillon d'extrémité d'aile : Courant d'air circulaire créé par le déplacement d'un profil générateur de portance. Lorsqu'un tel profil est déplacé de façon continue dans l'atmosphère, une zone de haute pression se crée à l'intrados et une autre de basse pression se crée sur l'extrados. L'air qui circule autour des ailes, de la zone de haute pression vers celle de basse pression, a tendance à former deux tourbillons cylindriques en rotation rapide. Ces tourbillons produisent la majeure partie de la turbulence de sillage d'un aéronef. La force de rotation de ces tourbillons dépend de la charge alaire, de la masse brute et de la vitesse de l'aéronef. Les tourbillons provoqués par les aéronefs moyens et lourds peuvent avoir de très grande vitesse et mettre en danger les aéronefs plus petits. 4, record 42, French, - turbulence%20cr%C3%A9%C3%A9e%20par%20les%20tourbillons
