Filling Slot Bearings Single Row Bearing Balls
424 wordsThe object of ball bearings (and roller bearings) is the substitution of pure rolling motion for plain sliding friction.

Ball bearings are available in both filling-slot and no filling-slot types. Oth...

Speed Of Light General Theory Of Relativity
3,151 wordsI. Introduction 1. Theory of Black Holes Black holes are one of the least understood phenomenons in the galaxy yet the secrets contained within the black hole could revolutionize the field of physics. Black holes are formed when an enormously massive star, most likely a neutron star, collapses in on itself. This happens because when the star dies all the energy generated from the sun s fusion reaction that was formerly pushing outward suddenly stops. When the outward force stops, the sun has so ...
