Topic: Evolution of car technology General Purpose: To inform Specific Purpose: To inform my audience how the evolution of car technology has enhanced our lives (topical Format) Central Idea: showcasing the major improvements technology in cars has shown the public Introduction: i. Attention grabber: You’re on the highway, cruising around at normal speed, singing along with your favorite song, nothing out of the ordinary. Suddenly, the car in front of you breaks hard and you realize it’s too late to brake without getting in an accident. You look at your left side mirror and realize there’s a car next to you. You have two options, break hard and prepare yourself to crash or have let your car do the work for you and let it brake for you before you even realize that the car in front of you braked ii. Thesis statement: Technology in cars have evolved so much during the last years that we can’t figure out which one to thank when it saves our lives, or when it makes our lives easier. Which is why I’ll talk about as much as I can during the time I am given Body paragraph: i. Turbos a. So starting with turbos, although there are many types of turbos, I’ll talk about the simplest setup. b. “By definition, turbocharging is all about getting more [power] from the same basic engine design” c. The …show more content…
Adaptive cruise control. We’ve all heard of cruise control, set you speed limit and voila your car maintains that speed, very useful on long trips. But what about adaptive? well as the word suggests, it adapts but to the speeds of the car in front of you and accelerate and decelerate accordingly, in some cases it can steer. Ever heard of Tesla (PICTURE TESLA P100D) we’ve all heard about it, a fully electric car and as fast as Lamborghinis and Ferraris. And you may have also heard that it basically drives by itself, all thanks to adaptive cruise control. This system is made up of infrared radars and cameras mounted either in front of the grill or on the rear-view mirror or
The smaller the turbocharger, the less lag is produced. When a supercharger is activated, there is absolutely no lag at all because it is connected directly to the crank. This means that superchargers are able to produce boost at very low levels of rpm, giving the engine more power the whole time the supercharger is running. This is very important for those people who drive the supercharged trucks that are heavier than most cars and are usually hauling heavy loads in the back of the truck or on a trailer.
A long time racer and enthusiast Nick Ciccotello has a great understanding of cars, especially fast ones, and how they work. Nick does not have either unit on his latest machine, a 1971 Duster, but his future plans include adding a turbocharger. Ciccotello says, " A turbocharger is perfect for what I want to do with my car. I can go for a Sunday drive and still take her out to the quarter mile every other Thursday. The turbo give me power at the higher rpm's where my car needs it."
powers. from a small 80cc to a huge two stroke 600cc! I own a 1989
The automobile began as a rich man’s toy, and in today’s society almost every single person owns one of these miraculous inventions. After the automobile became more popular, society has evolved around it, creating highways and fast food chains. The automobile has revised from a bare invention, such as the horseless carriage, to now technologically advanced motor vehicles with bluetooth and wireless internet. Since the beginning age of the automobile in 1885, the invention has advanced, prospered, and changed society throughout the world.
As you drive, air rushes past your car. It hits the front of your car and the intake, and this cold air is forced to the engine. As a combination, the turbo and intake greatly improve power and speed.
Now then what about Self-Driving cars? Well the name is self explanatory but very cool thing. Many of the cars use many sensors on the car to detect where cars are located around you as well as a form of GPS to get you to your destination safely. And with all those sensors on the car, it can even change lanes on its own, you just got to check your blind spots
The majestic leaf blowers(superchargers), is a car add-on that makes your car faster. As well as the snail(turbo). But both are different, way different. A supercharger is an air compressor that increases the pressure or density of air supplied to an internal combustion engine. This gives each intake cycle of the engine more oxygen, letting it burn more fuel and do more work. A turbocharger, or turbo, is a turbine-driven forced induction device that increases an internal combustion engine 's efficiency and power output by forcing extra air into the combustion chamber.This improvement over a naturally aspirated engine 's power output is due to the fact that the
Contain 4 main components, Compressor housing, compressor wheel, Turbine housing, along with a turbine wheel. Exhaust gas enters the system through the compressor housing while the air flows over the compressor wheel it causes a chain reaction which results in a counterclockwise rotation of the turbine wheel. This rotation is the stage when exhaust gas turns to air pressure. The air pressure is returned to the engine through a waste-gated return hose/line. The pressurized air is then interchanged with combustible diesel fuel and ignited. The bigger the turbo charger is allows more mass air flow which results in more fuel being burned all this combined equals a greater amount of horsepower
Tires squealing, superchargers whining, turbos screaming as the air is forced to mix with fuel. A concoction resulting in immense, intense power from what some would call a box of metal. A meaningless, mass produced, grocery getter. However, these stereotypes are not true, due to one attribute. When that pedal touches the floor, magic is in progress, and pure, raw, unkempt power is unleashed. Air and fuel forced to mix, as if they were great enemies fighting one another. The spark plugs, igniting the furious battle between them, causes an earth shaking explosion. The pistons scream as the energy forces them to slam downwards, turning the ever-mighty crankshaft. The energy rushes through the flywheel, turning the many transmission gears, funneling angry horsepower through the drive shaft. The rear axle is the surrogate through which the tires squeal, launching the car down a ¼ mile track in under 10 seconds.
To research the automobile’s future, I began research with CQ Researcher, a source with articles discussing almost any number of topics. The regular articles always have over 12,000 words and contain a detailed bibliography.
People with disabilities that are blind, and can't walk or can't do anything. They need these cars in the future because how are they are going to get to place that they need to go. Maybe they have emergency to where they need to go. Talk about the future of our society and the independent for the handicaps. "We've had almost driverless technology for a decade," said Google engineer Nathaniel Fairfield. "It's the hard parts of driving that really take the time and the effort to do right." Driving with actual car and steering-wheel and pedals it takes effort because you have to put your keys in
The year of 2016 has been a year for the pushing of ideas of self-driven cars where technology does all the work. People already put so much of their attention on technology rather than investing it on things that actually
The automobile has been in America and has helped it for many years but as time goes by it seem to be doing more harm than well. From contributing to extreme stress to harming the environment the once “freeing” car is seeming more and more like a chain holding us down.
Three honks. Ready, set, go. The moment every car enthusiast dreams of at night. Chances are you might not even know what a car enthusiast is. Some say it's your average car guy that likes to stare at cars and talk about cars all day long, but there's much more too it. See, you can't be the average person to be a car enthusiast. The average person may see an old car at a junkyard and just think well, it's just another piece of junk. Too a car enthusiast he sees a piece of art. He or she witnesses something they can build and make into something truly special.
First off, my car does amazing things cause it gets me to my destination on time, because If you over sleep and have to rush; you would not be late for work. You have an interview and you have 6 minutes to be there; don’t worry the The Ford Fusion goes up to 325 horsepower which also includes the miles per gallon. In the city you can go up to 23 in the city and 34 on the highway. If I get lost, I’ll put the address in my GPS system. Your car saves a lot of memory to it that helps you navigate
