If you need to, use the hints given below about each inventor:<br />
1. Got Milk? Thanks to this inventor,<br />
you have it for a longer time : the<br />
process he invented kills most<br />
bacteria and makes food safer.<br />
2. When he invented this bright little<br />
thing, did one of them pop up<br />
over his head?<br />
3. Thanks to her, you can see much<br />
better when driving a car.<br />
4. His design wasn’t tested for five<br />
hundred years but, despite what<br />
some critics said, it flew perfectly.<br />
5. His truly explosive invention made<br />
him rich, allowing him to create a<br />
series of prestigious prizes.<br />
6. Thanks to his invention, this man<br />
could see right through you.<br />
7. She knew she had been successful<br />
when she saw her discovery<br />
glow in the dark from radiation.<br />
8. His invention allowed more people<br />
to read books than ever<br />
before in history.<br />
9. Thanks to him, voices and information<br />
can reach across the<br />
world.<br />
10. When their invention worked, it<br />
gave people quite a lift.<br />
Answers from page 15:<br />
1. Without enough air or gas present, there is not enough resistance to provide drag or lift.<br />
2. Parachutes can be used to slow down landing planes, rocket components or space shuttles, and even some race cars.<br />
3. Without a force pulling it in one direction, the parachute will simply let the air slip to the sides, turning or slipping back and forth like a falling leaf.<br />
4. Planes use the thrust from their engines to provide speed and lift.<br />
5. Aerodynamics are used to reduce the drag caused by air resistance, providing better road handling and even reducing gas consumption.<br />
