Fuel Economy Commonly Referred
1,489 words
The idea of forced air induction by turbine, or
turbo, is not new and has it's mass production
roots in WWII fighter planes. What is new,
however, is its application to passenger
automobiles. Unlike a near constant high RPM
fighter engine, an automobile requires wide-open
throttle (WOT) power availability throughout its
entire operating range. Previous automotive turbo
applications acted like an on-off power switch
with a five second delay, decreasing drivability,
rather than providing the smoot...

Pez was invented in 1927 in Vienna, Austria by an
already accomplished candyman named Edward Haas

Atlantic Slave Trade 19 Th Century

Factors that Affected Slavery In African
societies, there was practically no difference

evolution originated from Darwin in the nineteenth
century. However, the idea that species mutate
