The key is to design machine
speed and torque requirements for the application.
The one indisputable fact about
speed and resistance is that the heavier the resistance, the slower the athlete's

Since there is a correlation between raw disk transfer
speeds and the
speed of the supporting data transfer interface, these increases in storage capacity are related to parallel improvements in data transfer rates.
One reason is that when a car moves at high
speed, air flowing underneath it creates an upward force, explains Mark Drela, a professor of aeronautics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
