Bij vraag 3 had ik geen problemen. Alles was duidelijk, alhoewel ik de tip niet snapte.
Vraag 4 gaf wat meer problemen, net omwille van de tip. Gary Gabelich waren al 2 G's. Maar de andere? Geen idee
De brandstof dan. Op de site van ThrustSSC had ik hetvolgende weergevonden:
Three other men were already planning another rocket-powered car, and they formed Reaction Dynamics Inc. to pursue their goal. With support from the Institute of Gas Technology, they built the slim liquid fuel rocket powered projectile Blue Flame. Unlike solid fuel rockets, liquid fuel rockets have the advantage that they can be actively throttled by the driver to control the amount of thrust produced. The rocket engine, designed specifically for the car, was capable of producing a staggering 58,000 hp for a period of 20 seconds, but for the record attempt it was restricted to 35,000 hp. Dragster ace Gary Gabelich was selected as the driver, and Blue Flame arrived at Bonneville in September 1970. Five weeks later, after a number of problems had been overcome, Gabelich set a new record on 23rd October of 622.407 mph for the mile, and 630.388 mph for the kilometre.
Verder op de site vind je bij de statistieken de volledige naam, nl.
Reaction Dynamics pressure fed bio-repellant rocket system
Mis dus
