What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper 雨刮器 ? Shouldn t we know who they are.Joan Mclean thinks so. In fact, Mclean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so stronglyabout this matter that she dseveloped a course on the topic.

I was wearing running shoes for an important speech.I knew I could buy a new pair when I landed. Too late; the stores were already closed. What about in themorning. No, the next day was Sunday and my speech was scheduled for 9:00 a.m. Ninety seconds later, however, my cold sweat has been replaced with a single idea.The next morning, I began my speech,“ You might be wondering why I am wearing running shoes today. Well,Mclean,“ When studentslearn theanswers to these questions,theyare betterpreparedto recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”Her students agree. One young man with a patent 专利 for an unbreakable umbrella is a walking proof of Mclean s statement. “ If I had not heard the story of the windshield wipers invention, ” said Tommy Lee, a senior physics major,” “ I never would have dreamed of turning my bad experience during a rain storm into something so constructive/useful.” Lee is currently considering to sell his patent to an umbrella producer.So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper. Well, Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she欢迎下载精品学习资源it s about this request here.

We had just witnessed the signing of the papers at their house, and theythis when she returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever 操作杆 on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshieldwiper.Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations.

The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float漂浮 free in zero gravity 重力 , often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled 芭蕾 dancer. “ I m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six -month tour on the International Space Station.“ I like to be wrapped up. ”On the station, the ordinary becomes strange.

For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That wshy exercise is considered so vital/importantthat National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it isabout keeping any individual astronauts healthy.
