DISCRIMINATION

The discrimitation can be seen in a lot of forms, sexual, gender, racial, social, religious... Even tough nowadays these discriminations have been reduced along the history, there is still a long part to fight.
In English classes, we have seen two films about discrimination, the first film was "Hidden figures", this film tell the lives of three balck womens working in the NASA as human calculators. In this film we can see two type of discrimination, the gender and racial, we can see the difficults than have to pass this three womans just for them condicions. The time is 1960 and the womans couldn't go to the university and in the NASA they can only work as calculators, in the case of being black, or as secretary being white. In the film show us the efforts and the difficults that one women have to pass for work with men and that they listen to her. And we can see how another women have to win a judgment to be able to enter to the university to study the engineering that seh wants.

In the other film, named "BlacKkKlansman", we can see the fight of the black people in order to have the same rights that withe people have it. We can see the meetings and the manifestations they performed. But the film is focused in a black police, the first in his departament. This police with the help of another police will get to infiltrate in the most racist organitation, the "Ku Klux Klan". In this film we will see how he infiltrates and everything he does to dismantle it.

These two movies have motivated us to make posters to raise awareness about discrimination. Our group had the job to do the sexual discrimination, telling the problems and difficults that non-heterosexual people have to deal in their day to day.

HOW DO AIRPLANES FLY

Image
 According to Bernoulli's theorem,  In any ideal fluid (without viscosity or friction), incomprehensible, in laminar regime of circulation through a closed conduit, the energy that has the fluid remains constant throughout its entire journey. In our case we will focus in the pressure. There are two types of pressure, the static and the dynamic, and the addition of these will be constant in all of points of the route. The dynamic pressure depends of the density and the velocity, and this velocity increase when the fluid of air passes by the narrowing formed in the top of the wing, this increase of the velocity lowers the static pressure, and this difference of pressures between the top and the bottom of the wing is the fact what makes it fly. The difference of pressure varies according the profile of the wing, we can take into account: -Leading edge: the edge more advanced. -Trailing edge: the edge more delayed. -Chord: line that links the leading edge with the trailing edge.

MY WEEK #13

This week I returned to do calisthenics, this is based to do physical  exercise with your own body. The last year I started this sport with my class partner Vicente, but before summer we left to go. This year I want to take routine again, but my partner don't want to come back with me, fortunately I have more friends that they could go with me. The problem is that I am playing football, and now I will have training of calisthenics Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and trainning of football Tuesday and Thursday and match ob Sunday. I only will we able to rest one day at the week. The past weekend was "Sant Sebastià" and every year we make a barbacue, but this year was impossible because it was bad weather. Finally we cook the meat in the house of Álvaro. In class we are watching module 9, Human Factors, and we have Felipe and Jose María as teachers. With Felipe, we are learning the differents causes and reasons why accidents occur. And Jose María is teaching the sight and he

MY INVENTION

Image
Have you ever tried to mesure something with your hands or fingers? I am sure that yes. But this is always a bad mesure and never  works. For this reason I have invented "Mesufingers" Whats is "Mesufingers" and how do it works? I will explain you. C onsists of two caps with an interior in silicone to adapt to the different sizes of fingers that measure the distance between both caps by issuing signals that determine the distance between both fingers, calculating the distance from the delay in the arrival of the signal from one cap to the other. The measured distance is shown through LED. It isn't it to measure great distances, but it can be extremely useful for everyday tasks. You can use it in the same hand or use it hand to hand. T his would replace the tape metric and this would do it in a simpler and more effective way. My invention would be sould between 30-50 euros
