Here is a section list to help you visit this section:
Gravity Thrust Friction Satellite Liquid Solid Nuclear Misc.
This is a technical section that I will try to keep as basic as possible.
Easy Calculations, Always check your units!!!!
The principals of lift and drag.
Shape factors:
The effects of fluid density.
F = physical property
The Weight = W (Not the mass.)
The mass = m (Not the weight.)
a = acceleration
A = Area
Sf = shape factor
V = velocity from start to finish
t = time, like building this site.
Equilibrium!
