to propel

Rockets are usually propelled by a chemical reaction.

antreiben

velocity

The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position.

Geschwindigkeit

inertial frames of reference

An inertial frame of reference is one that has constant velocity.

Inertialsysteme

friction

Most of the daily activities are dependent on friction.

Reibung

inertia

Newton's first law is also called "the law of inertia".

Trägheit

to exert

A ball lying on a table would never move unless you exert unbalanced force.

ausüben

 

combustion

Rockets need oxygen for their combustion.

Verbrennung

 

pair of forces

A pair of forces consists of two forces which are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

Kräftepaar

elastic modulus

The Young Modulus is also known as the elastic modulus or tensile modulus E.

 

Elastizitätsmodul

 

ductile

Although both metals are very soft and ductile, the resulting aluminium alloy will be much stronger.

 

dehnbar

division

The primary division is into elastic and plastic deformation.

 

Unterteilung

yield section

The first area of the plastic deformation is called yield section.

 

Fließbereich

segmented

The graph is segmented in three areas.

 

unterteilt

necking

During necking, the material can no longer withstand the maximum stress.

 

Einschnürung

brittle

Glas is a brittle material , hard, strong in compression, weak in tension.

 

spröd

ductile fracture

The material will be deformed first and will break when i increase the force.

 

Verformungsbruch

occurs

Deformation occurs when a force acts on an object.

 

kommt vor , tritt auf

snap

When the wind is too strong, it could snap the tree completely.

 

umknicken

lift

In order to fly an airplane the lift must be higher than the weight.

 

heben

thrust

Each moveable object needs a thrust.

Schub/Hieb

drag

After an object starts to fly the drag force acts on this object.

ziehen

to flee

Da Vinci had to flee from Milano after France conquered Milano.

flüchten

acceleration

By raising the acceleration the velocity boosts.

Beschleunigung

velocity

By raising the acceleration the velocity boosts.

schnelligkeit

(Upper/Lower) surface

wing

The wright brothers invented the moveable wing.

 

Flügel

act on

On every object acts the force of gravity.

 

wirken

density

The density of the air changes with temperature.

 

Dichte

altitude

The density of the air changes with altitude.

 

Höhe

eigen frequency, natural frequency

The Natural frequency is the frequency at which a system oscillates whitout any external influences.

 

Eigenfrequenz

resonance frequency

At resonance frequencies the oscillation amplitude reaches a maximum.

 

Resonanzfrequenz

resonant circuit

An electrical resonant circuit is a vibratory system, which is often used in radios.

 

Schwingkreis

damping

High oscillation amplitudes are often caused by low damping.

 

Dämpfung

phenomenon

A phenomenon is any observable occurrence.

 

Phänomen
