Objectives
  • The Student will -
  • 1.Be able to identify the three modes of
    transportation. (land, air, sea)
  • 2. Be able to categorize different types of
    transportation into the correct mode.
  • 3. Be able to identify at least 5 different types
    of transportation.

Modes of Transportation
  • Land
  • Air
  • Sea

4
Land
  • Car
  • Bus
  • Train
  • Bicycle
  • Animals

Car
  • A car (also called an auto) is a vehicle used to
    transport passengers. Cars usually have
    four wheels and an internal combustion
    engine.1 Another name is automobile which is
    Greek and means "self-moving", as cars do not
    need horses or other external sources of power to
    move.

Bus
  • This article is about Road vehicles designed to
    carry passengers. For longer distance passenger
    vehicles, see Coach (bus). For other uses,
    see Bus (disambiguation).
  • "Busing (transportation)" redirects here. For the
    desegregation practice, see Desegregation busing.
  • A bus (pron. /'b?s/ plural "buses", /'b?s?z/,
    archaically also omnibus, multibus, or autobus)
    is a road vehicle designed to carrypassengers.
    Buses can have a capacity as high as 300
    passengers.1 The most common type of bus is
    the single-decker rigid bus, with larger loads
    carried by double-decker buses and articulated
    buses, and smaller loads carried
    by midibuses and minibuses coaches are used for
    longer distance services. Bus manufacturing is
    increasingly globalised, with the same design
    appearing around the world. Another notable bus
    is the 54 bus, which Angus' date has a tendency
    to catch whilst going in the wrong direction.
  • Buses may be used for scheduled bus
    transport, scheduled coach transport, school
    transport, private hire, tourism promotional
    buses may be used for political campaigns and
    others are privately operated for a wide range of
    purposes.
  • Horse drawn buses were used from the 1820s,
    followed by steam buses in the 1830s, and
    electric trolleybuses in 1882. The first buses
    powered by internal combustion engines were used
    in 1895citation needed and this is still the
    most common power source. Recently there has been
    growing interest in hybrid electric buses, fuel
    cell buses, electric buses as well as ones
    powered by compressed natural gas orbio-diesel.

Train
  • This article is about the rail vehicle. For other
    uses, see Train (disambiguation).
  • A train is a connected series of rail vehicles pro
    pelled along a track (or "permanent way") to
    transport cargo or passengers.
  • Motive power is provided by a separate locomotive 
    or individual motors in self-propelled multiple
    units. Although historically steam propulsion
    dominated, the most common modern forms
    are diesel and electric locomotives, the latter
    supplied by overhead wires or additional rails.
    Other energy sources includehorses, rope or
    wire, gravity, pneumatics, batteries, and gas
    turbines.
  • Train tracks usually consists of two, three or
    four rails, with a limited number
    of monorails and maglev guideways in the mix.
  • The word 'train' comes from the Old
    French trahiner, from the Latin trahere 'pull,
    draw'.

8
Bicycle
  • For other uses, see Bicycle (disambiguation).
  • A bicycle, often called a bike2 (and sometimes
    referred to as a "pushbike",3 "pedal
    bike",4 "pedal cycle",5 or "cycle"6), is
    a human-powered, pedal-driven, single-track
    vehicle, having two wheels attached to a frame,
    one behind the other.7 A person who rides a
    bicycle is called a cyclist, or bicyclist.
  • Bicycles were introduced in the 19th century in
    Europe and now number more than a billion
    worldwide, twice as many asautomobiles.8 They
    are the principal means of transportation in many
    regions. They also provide a popular form of
    recreation, and have been adapted for such uses
    as children's toys, general fitness, military and
    police applications, courier services and bicycle
    racing.
  • The basic shape and configuration of a
    typical upright, or safety bicycle, has changed
    little since the first chain-driven model was
    developed around 1885.9 However, many details
    have been improved, especially since the advent
    of modern materials and computer-aided design.
    These have allowed for a proliferation of
    specialized designs for diverse types of cycling.
  • The invention of the bicycle has had an enormous
    effect on society, both in terms of culture and
    of advancing modern industrial methods. Several
    components that eventually played a key role in
    the development of the automobile were invented
    for the bicycle, including ball
    bearings, pneumatic tires, chain-driven sprockets,
    and tension-spoked wheels.

Animals
  • Jump to navigation, search
  • For other uses, see Animal (disambiguation).
  • "Animalia" redirects here. For other uses,
    see Animalia (disambiguation).
  • "Non-human animal" redirects here. It is not to
    be confused with Non-human
  • Animals are a major group of multicellular, eukary
    otic organisms of the kingdom Animalia or Metazoa.
    Their body plan eventually becomes fixed as
    they develop, although some undergo a process
    of metamorphosis later on in their life. Most
    animals are motile, meaning they can move
    spontaneously and independently. All animals are
    also heterotrophs, meaning they must ingest other
    organisms or their products for sustenance.
  • Most known animal phyla appeared in the fossil
    record as marine species during the Cambrian
    explosion, about 542 million years ago. Animals
    are divided into various sub-groups,
    including birds, mammals, reptiles, fish and insec
    ts.

    fast moving jet which generates thrust by jet
    propulsion
  • Jet aircraft, an aircraft (nearly always a
    fixed-wing aircraft) propelled by jet engines
  • Rocket engine, simply "rocket", a jet engine that
    uses only stored propellant mass for forming its
    high speed propulsive jet

12
Airplane
  • For other uses, see Airplane (disambiguation).
  • Airplane! (titled Flying High! in Australia, New
    Zealand, South Africa, Japan, and the
    Philippines) is a 1980 American satiricalcomedy
    film directed and written by David Zucker, Jim
    Abrahams, and Jerry Zucker and released
    by Paramount Pictures. It starsRobert
    Hays and Julie Hagerty and features Leslie
    Nielsen, Robert Stack, Lloyd Bridges, Peter
    Graves, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, andLorna Patterson.
    The film is a parody of the disaster film genre,
    particularly the 1957 Paramount film Zero Hour!,
    from which it borrows the plot and the central
    characters.2 The film is known for its use
    of absurd and fast-paced slapstick comedy,
    including visual and verbal puns and gags.
  • Airplane! was a financial success, grossing over
    US83 million in North America alone, against a
    budget of just 3.5 million.1 The film's
    creators received the Writers Guild of America
    Award for Best Adapted Comedy, and nominations
    for the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion
    Picture Musical or Comedy and a BAFTA Award for
    Best Screenplay.3
  • In the years since its release, Airplane!'s
    reputation has grown substantially. The film was
    voted the 10th-funniest American comedy
    on AFI's 100 Years... 100 Laughs list in 2000,
    and ranked sixth on Bravo's 100 Funniest Movies.
    In a major 2007 survey by Channel 4in the United
    Kingdom, it was judged the second greatest comedy
    film of all time.4
  • In 2008, Airplane! was selected
    by Empire magazine as one of The 500 Greatest
    Movies of All Time and in 2012 was voted No. 1
    inThe 50 Funniest Comedies Ever poll.5 In 2010
    it was selected for preservation in the National
    Film Registry by the Library of Congress.67
  • Several of the spoken lines, or gags, have become
    enduring puns in American culture.

13
Helicopter
  • For other uses, see Helicopter (disambiguation).
  • A helicopter (or chopper, helo or whirlybird) is
    a type of rotorcraft in which lift and thrust are
    supplied by rotors. This allows the helicopter to
    take off and land vertically, to hover, and to
    fly forwards, backwards, and laterally. These
    attributes allow helicopters to be used in
    congested or isolated areas where fixed-wing
    aircraft would usually not be able to take off or
    land. The capability to efficiently hover for
    extended periods of time allows a helicopter to
    accomplish tasks that fixed-wing aircraft and
    other forms of vertical takeoff and
    landing aircraft cannot perform.
  • The word helicopter is adapted from the
    French hélicoptère, coined by Gustave de Ponton
    d'Amecourt in 1861, which originates from
    theGreek helix/helik- (????) "twisted,
    curved"1 and pteron (pte???) "wing".234
  • Helicopters were developed and built during the
    first half-century of flight, with the Focke-Wulf
    Fw 61 being the first operational helicopter in
    1936. Some helicopters reached limited
    production, but it was not until 1942 that a
    helicopter designed by Igor Sikorsky reached
    full-scale production,5 with 131 aircraft
    built.6 Though most earlier designs used more
    than one main rotor, it is the single main rotor
    with anti-torque tail rotor configuration that
    has become the most common helicopter
    configuration. Tandem rotor helicopters are also
    in widespread use, due to their better payload
    capacity. Quadrotor helicopters and other types
    of multicopter have been developed for
    specialized applications.

Rocket
  • This article is about vehicles powered by rocket
    engines. For other uses, see Rocket
    (disambiguation).
  • A rocket is a missile, spacecraft, aircraft or
    other vehicle that obtains thrust from a rocket
    engine. Rocket engine exhaust is formed entirely
    from propellants carried within the rocket before
    use.1 Rocket engines work by action and
    reaction. Rocket engines push rockets forward
    simply by throwing their exhaust backwards
    extremely fast.
  • While comparatively inefficient for low speed
    use, rockets are relatively lightweight and
    powerful, capable of generating large
    accelerations and of attaining extremely high
    speeds with reasonable efficiency. Rockets are
    not reliant on the atmosphere and work very well
    in space.
  • Rockets for military and recreational uses date
    back to at least 13th century China.2 Significan
    t scientific, interplanetary and industrial use
    did not occur until the 20th century, when
    rocketry was the enabling technology of the Space
    Age, including setting foot on the moon. Rockets
    are now used for fireworks, weaponry, ejection
    seats, launch vehicles for artificial
    satellites, human spaceflight, and space
    exploration.
  • Chemical rockets are the most common type of
    rocket and they typically create their exhaust by
    the combustion of rocket propellant. Chemical
    rockets store a large amount of energy in an
    easily released form, and can be very dangerous.
    However, careful design, testing, construction
    and use minimizes risks.

Hot Air Balloon
  • This article is about hot air balloons
    themselves. For the activity, see hot air
    ballooning. For the rock opera, see Hot Air
    Balloon (rock opera). For the song, see Hot Air
    Balloon (song).
  • The hot air balloon is the oldest successful
    human-carrying flight technology. It is part of a
    class of aircraft known as balloon aircraft. On
    November 21, 1783, in Annonay, France, the first
    untethered1 manned flight was performed
    by Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier and François
    Laurent d'Arlandes in a hot air balloon created
    on December 14, 1782 by the Montgolfier
    brothers.2 Hot air balloons that can be
    propelled through the air rather than just being
    pushed along by the wind are known
    as airships or, more specifically, thermal
    airships.
  • A hot air balloon consists of a bag called
    the envelope that is capable of containing heated
    air. Suspended beneath is a gondola orwicker
    basket (in some long-distance or high-altitude
    balloons, a capsule), which carries passengers
    and (usually) a source of heat, in most cases an
    open flame. The heated air inside the envelope
    makes it buoyant since it has a lower
    density than the relatively cold air outside the
    envelope. As with all aircraft, hot air balloons
    cannot fly beyond the atmosphere. Unlike gas
    balloons, the envelope does not have to be sealed
    at the bottom since the air near the bottom of
    the envelope is at the same pressure as the air
    surrounding. For modern sport balloons the
    envelope is generally made from nylon fabric and
    the inlet of the balloon (closest to the burner
    flame) is made from fire resistant material such
    as Nomex. Beginning during the mid-1970s, balloon
    envelopes have been made in all kinds of shapes,
    such as rocket ships and the shapes of various
    commercial products, though the traditional shape
    remains popular for most non-commercial, and many
    commercial, applications.

Ship
  • For other uses, see Ship (disambiguation).
  • Since the end of the age of sail a ship has been
    any large buoyant watercraft. Ships are generally
    distinguished from boatsbased on size
    and cargo or passenger capacity. Ships are used
    on lakes, seas, and rivers for a variety of
    activities, such as the transport of
    people or goods, fishing, entertainment, public
    safety, and warfare. Historically, a "ship" was a
    vessel with sails rigged in a specific manner.
  • Ships and boats have developed alongside mankind.
    In armed conflict and in daily life they have
    become an integral part of modern commercial and
    military systems. Fishing boats are used by
    millions of fishermen throughout the world.
    Military forces operate vessels for combat and to
    transport and support forces ashore. Commercial
    vessels, nearly 35,000 in number, carried
    7.4 billion tons of cargo in 2007.1
  • Ships were a key in history's great explorations
    and scientific and technological development.
    Navigators such as Zheng He spread such
    inventions as the compass and gunpowder. Ships
    have been used for such purposes
    as colonization and the slave trade, and have
    served scientific, cultural, and humanitarian
    needs. After the 16th century, new crops that had
    come from and to the Americas via the European
    seafarers significantly contributed to the
    world's population growth.2Maritime transport
    has shaped the world's economy into today's
    energy-intensive pattern.

18
Jet ski
  • For the song of the same name by Bikini Kill,
    see Reject All American.
  • Jet Ski is the brand name of a personal
    watercraft manufactured by Kawasaki.1 It was
    the "first commercially successful" personal
    watercraft, having been released in 1972.1 The
    term is sometimes used to refer to any type of
    personal watercraft.

19
Submarine
  • For other uses, see Submarine (disambiguation).
  • A submarine is a watercraft capable of
    independent operation underwater. It differs from
    a submersible, which has more limited underwater
    capability. The term submarine most commonly
    refers to a large crewed autonomous vessel.
    However, historically or colloquially, submarine
    can also refer to medium-sized or smaller vessels
    (midget submarines, wet subs),remotely operated
    vehicles or robots.
  • The adjective submarine, in terms such
    as submarine cable, means "under the sea". The
    noun submarine evolved as a shortened form
    of submarine boat (and is often further shortened
    to sub).1 For reasons of naval tradition,
    submarines are usually referred to as "boats"
    rather than as "ships", regardless of their size.
  • Although experimental submarines had been built
    before, submarine design took off during the 19th
    century, and they were adopted by several navies.
    Submarines were first widely used during World
    War I (19141918), and now figure in many
    large navies. Military usage includes attacking
    enemy surface ships or submarines, aircraft
    carrier protection, blockaderunning, ballistic
    missile submarines as part of a nuclear strike
    force, reconnaissance, conventional land attack
    (for example using a cruise missile), and covert
    insertion of special forces. Civilian uses for
    submarines include marine science, salvage,
    exploration and facility inspection/maintenance.
    Submarines can also be modified to perform more
    specialized functions such as search-and-rescue
    missions or undersea cable repair. Submarines are
    also used in tourism, and for undersea
    archaeology.
  • Most large submarines consist of a cylindrical
    body with hemispherical (and/or conical) ends and
    a vertical structure, usually located amidships,
    which houses communications and sensing devices
    as well as periscopes. In modern submarines, this
    structure is the "sail" in American usage, and
    "fin" in European usage. A "conning tower" was a
    feature of earlier designs a separate pressure
    hull above the main body of the boat that allowed
    the use of shorter periscopes. There is a
    propeller (or pump jet) at the rear, and various
    hydrodynamic control fins as well as ballast
    tanks. Smaller, deep diving and specialty
    submarines may deviate significantly from this
    traditional layout.
  • Submarines have one of the widest ranges of types
    and capabilities of any vessel. They range from
    small autonomous examples and one or two-person
    vessels that operate for a few hours, to vessels
    that can remain submerged for six monthssuch as
    the Russian Typhoon class, the biggest submarines
    ever built. Submarines can work at greater depths
    than are survivable or practical for
    human divers. Modern deep-diving submarines
    derive from the bathyscaphe, which in turn
    evolved from the diving bell.

20
Canoe
  • For other uses, see Canoe (disambiguation).
  • A canoe is a lightweight narrow boat pointed at
    both ends and open on top, propelled by one or
    more seated or kneeling paddlers facing the
    direction of travel using a single-bladed paddle.
    1
  • Canoes are used for racing, whitewater canoeing,
    touring and camping, freestyle, and general
    recreation. The intended use of the canoe
    dictates its hull shape and construction
    material.
  • Historically canoes were dugouts or made of bark
    on a wood frame,2 but construction materials
    evolved to canvas on a wood frame, then
    to aluminum. Most modern canoes are made of
    molded plastic or composites like Fiberglass.
    Until the mid-1800s the canoe was an important
    means of transport for exploration and trade, but
    then transitioned to recreational or sporting
    use. Canoeing has been part of the Olympics since
    1936. In countries where the canoe played a key
    role in history, such as Canada and New Zealand,
    the canoe remains an important theme in popular
    culture.
  • Canoes can be adapted to many purposes, for
    example with the addition of sails, outboard
    motors, and outriggers.
