Aviation (hehe wild card)
Lift (Bonus: Lift Formula)
The force produced by the wings that acts against gravity, keeping the aircraft suspended in the air.
Bonus: The relative value of lift can be derived given some flight parameters. It is quantified using the formula L = cL1/2pV^2S.
Scarf
A garment usually worn around the neck to keep the area warm.
Soda
An often sweet carbonated drink.
Algorithm
A step-by-step program outlined for a computer to carry out a certain task.
Mass
The amount of matter contained in an object.
Drag (Bonus: Two types of drag?)
The aerodynamic resistance that opposes thrust to slow an aircraft down.
Bonus: The two types of drag are Parasite and Induced.
Three-piece suit
A matching set of coat, vest and trousers, usually worn in formal settings.
Latte
A coffee drink made from espresso and steamed milk, usually having a small layer of foam.
Machine Learning
A type of Artificial Intelligence that allows computer programs to learn from data input without explicit human intervention.
Inertia
An object's resistance to change in motion.
Stall
A stall occurs when an aircraft exceeds its critical Angle of Attack (AoA), resulting in a loss of aerodynamically effective lift.
Fast Fashion
The inexpensive and rapid production of a type of clothing to meet demand and maximise profitability.
Vodka
A clear, distilled alcoholic beverage traditionally made from grains or potatoes.
Notable Figure: Nikola Tesla
Invented the Alternating Current form of electricity, which is still widely used today.
Momentum
The vector quantity of an object with mass, quantified by its mass x velocity.
Hydraulics
In aircraft, hydraulic systems are cables that use water pressure to convert pilot input into flight control surface movement.
Minimalism
A style in which simplicity and the avoidance of excess embellishments on clothing are valued.
Kumquat Tea
A sweet and sour drink brewed from kumquats and other herbs that carries a citrusy and tangy flavour.
VPN
A Virtual Private Network is a system that creates a secure and encrypted connection between a user's device and the server.
Newton (not Isaac Newton)
The basic unit of measurement when dealing with forces. Shortened to N.
Angle of Attack (AoA)
Angle of Attack is the angle between the wing chord line and the relative airflow.
Avant-Garde
Avant-Garde fashion is a bold style of fashion, often using unconventional and experimental means of design.
Kombucha
A fermented tea made by brewing sweetened tea with cultures of bacteria and yeast.
Quantum Computing
An advanced type of computer programming, using properties of subatomic particles to form qubits, the basic unit of quantum computing
Thermodynamics
The branch of physics dealing with heat and its interaction between bodies.
