The way to pass an oral glucose tolerance test (eating 150 grams of sugar in the form of lucozade), is to dose up on antifungal first, to suppress the yeast, then drink the lucozade, then take some more antifungal. This prevents the yeast overgrowth being fed by the sugar and your bloo...
A typing test is often part of the interview process, so don't inflate your rate on the job application. If you claim to type 8,000 kph and can only manage 4,000 kph, you won't impress a hiring manager. Remember, too, that mistakes are deducted from your speed. Practice your skills...
There's a simple test you can perform before you buy them to make sure. Find a reflective surface, and hold the glasses so that you are viewing the surface through one of the lenses. Now slowly rotate the glasses to a 90-degree angle, and see if the reflective glare diminishes or ...
Because EVs are designed differently than gas cars, with the battery weight low to the ground and more evenly distributed, they tend to handle better. And thanks to their instant torque and simplified powertrains,electric vehicles can smoke gas vehiclesin a zero to 60 race just about every tim...

To take off, I lifted the hang glider (about 65 pounds / 29 kilograms) by the sides of the control bar and ran down the ridge (the instructor ran along side and shouted directions). The sail filled with air as I ran. When the airspeed reached about 17 mph (27 kph), I could feel...
Carriers can move in excess of 35 knots (40 mph, 64 kph), which gives them the ability to get anywhere in the ocean in a few weeks. The United States currently has six carrier groups stationed around the world, ready to move into action at a moment's notice. ...
These gases create a high-pressure, high-velocity stream of hot gases. These gases flow through a nozzle that further accelerates them to speeds of 5,000 to 10,000 mph (8,000 to 16,000 kph) and provides thrust. The disadvantage of a conventional rocket engine is that it requires a lot...
If you've read the HowStuffWorks article How Force, Torque, Power and Energy Work, you know that power is equal to force times speed. So the amount of power used by the tires depends on how fast the car is going. At 75 mph (120.7 kph), the tires are using 12 horsepower, and at ...
