Power Saving Switch System Design

Saving electricity can become a problem for busy families, as kids just forget to switch OFF lights when there is no need of it. Researchers at the University of Standford have come up with a ingenious solution to this very problem. They have designed a system in which for example you wish you switch ON another light the switch will get a bit rigid and resit your push. This is actually an indication that there are enough switches already ON in your house therefore you should first switch them OFF to reduce the load stress.

Here is a demonstration video of the designed system:

About The Harrier Jump Jet!

THE HARRIER JUMP JET

The Harrier Jump Jet is the worlds only vertical take off and landing jet fighter. It was developed by the British in an era of financial cutbacks which saw the end of the large Royal Navy Aircraft Carriers. It can use airfields on land or fly from smaller aircraft carriers at sea and is flown by the best US and British pilots. It combines the best aspects of a helicopter with those of a fighter jet. For example, the world speed record for a helicopter is 249 mph (Linx helicopter) whilst the Harrier can fly at 730 mph.

The Harriers most famous feature is its vertical take off and landing capability. Although the Harrier has one jet engine (The Pegasus) it has four nozzles that direct the jet engine thrust downwards for vertical lift. (Diagram 1)

Once airborne the nozzles are slowly revolved so that the plane moves forward. (Diagram 2)

Vertical take off and landing uses an enormous amount of skill on the part of the pilot and also a large amount of fuel. The Harrier can only hover for 90 seconds, in this time it uses 150 gallons of water to keep the engine cool.


To save fuel a simple ramp allows the plane to take off on a very short runway. This is used by the Royal Navy Carriers. The planes appear to hop into the air.

Vents at the ends of each wing can be used to direct some of the thrust and this allows the pilot to move the plane left, right, forwards and backwards - whilst hovering.
