|
No need for rockets, ramjets, or other propulsive technologies, and the ascent to orbit can be made in a far more benign, safe environment than within a rocket. |
|
The hydrofoil surfaces swept up and down producing lift forces which averaged out over the whole cycle to a forwardly directed propulsive resultant force. |
|
Their latest album gleefully tears up the rule book, setting glittering Spanish guitars against squelchy bass lines, jaw-rattling rap and propulsive break-beats. |
|
Happily, three-fourths of a car's propulsive energy need is caused by its weight, and every unit of energy saved at the wheels saves another seven units we don't need to waste on the way to the wheels. |
|

|
The food, which is moved through the digestive system by a propulsive action, has become mainly waste and water by the time it reaches the bowel, a five-foot-long tube. |
|
The technique of the eggbeater kick provides continued propulsive force for swimmers to maintain the high of the head and upper body above the water. |
|
It's Bills N Eso's propulsive 'n' poppy Act Your Age. |
|
The subsidisation of bulk cargo tariffs, as well as the high concentration of transport flows and the predominance of railways in the modal split deprived the transport sector of its propulsive functions. |
|
The Adagio movement, one of the most sublime ever written, stands in stark contrast to the propulsive energy and forbidding grimness of the previous movements. |
|
When the muskrat is swimming under water, however, the sculling action of the tail probably provides as much propulsive force as do the hind feet. |
|
Although a bypass engine improves propulsive efficiency it incurs losses of its own inside the engine itself. |
|
However, at low speeds, these engines benefit from relatively high propulsive efficiency. |
|
The drop in pressure immediately boils some of the water and the steam leaves through a nozzle, creating a propulsive force. |

In an era of frenetic editing and propulsive soundtracks, the solemn quietude McKay establishes may be off-putting to some viewers and brilliantly nervy to others. |
|
This is quantified by the term propulsive, or Froude, efficiency. |
