The matchlock constituted the first mechanical device for firing.(...) For this improvement(...) two modifications of the hand cannon were necessary : the addition of a pan to hold the priming powder, which replaced the match in setting off the powder charge inside the barrel, and the addition of the serpentine, holding the match and thus freeing the hand of the shooter or his aide. These original matchlocks did not as yet include the leverage system worked by a trigger and indeed did, not have true "locks". Instead, the serpentine was a simple S-shaped arm pivoted in its center, the lower end serving as a handle by which the shooter moved the device manually.  1, record 2, English, - match

The Doppler effect on sound waves is experienced in everyday life. When an ambulance passes us, the siren appears to change its note. As it approaches, the pitch is high. As it passes us, the pitch falls. The effect occurs with any type of waves, including light. In the case of sound the effect was described by Christian Andreas Doppler (1803-1853), while for the light it was observed by Armand Fizeau (1819-1896). That’s why sometimes the effect is called the Doppler-Fizeau effect.  5, record 4, English, - Doppler%20effect

Effet Doppler. L'effet tient son nom du physicien Christian Johann Doppler, qui établit le principe physique du phénomène sur les ondes sonores en 1842. Lorsque l'émetteur de l'onde se rapproche de l'observateur, la fréquence semble plus grande (l'onde est «tassée»), et lorsqu'il s'en éloigne, la fréquence semble plus faible (l'onde est «dilatée»). C'est pourquoi la sirène d'une ambulance paraît plus aiguë quand elle s'approche d'un observateur et plus grave lorsqu'elle s'éloigne de lui.  5, record 4, French, - effet%20Doppler

L'effet Doppler-Fizeau. [...] phénomène qui se produit lorsqu'une source de vibration (sons, ultrasons) ou de rayonnements électromagnétiques (lumière, ondes radio...) de fréquence donnée est en mouvement par rapport à un observateur et qui se traduit pour celui-ci par une modification de la fréquence perçue. [...] Le même phénomène explique le décalage des raies spectrales dans le spectre d'émission d'un corps céleste (effet Doppler). Ce ne sont plus des longueurs d'ondes acoustiques mais des longueurs d'ondes lumineuses (ondes associées aux photons) émises par le corps en mouvement, on observe alors un décalage des raies spectrales vers le rouge (éloignement, périodes plus grandes) ou vers le bleu (rapprochement, périodes plus courtes). Ce décalage est donc fonction de la vitesse relative d'éloignement, ce qui permet aux astrophysiciens de déterminer la position, la vitesse et la composition d'un astre. À l'échelle atomique (modèle microscopique), l'effet Doppler-Fizeau est responsable de l'élargissement thermique des raies spectrales [...]  6, record 4, French, - effet%20Doppler

Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Pneumatic systems are often compared to hydraulic systems, but such comparisons can only hold true in general terms.... Control valves are... a necessary part of a typical pneumatic system.... The control valve consists of a lever with two lobes. [In the off position], a spring holds the left poppet closed so that compressed air entering the pressure port cannot flow to the brakes. [In the on position], one lobe of the lever holds the left poppet open and a spring closes the right poppet. Compressed air now flows around the opened left poppet, through a drilled passage, and into a chamber below the right poppet. Since the right poppet is closed, the high-pressure air flows out of the brake port and into the brake line to apply the brakes. To release the brakes, the control valve is returned to the off position.  3, record 6, English, - control%20valve

During a turn the nose of the aircraft is continually pitching up. Your pitch gyro will see this and attempt to stop it. This results in the nose dropping, and a decrease in altitude. Your pressure sensor will sense this loss of altitude and attempt to correct it. So, effectively, the gyro and pressure sensor will be working against each other(slightly) and the end result is that your plane will not hold the desired altitude, but one slightly lower than the desired altitude. This is especially true in the early portions of the turn.  2, record 8, English, - pitch%20gyro
