  2. Thrust block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_block

    A thrust block, also known as a thrust box, is a specialised form of thrust bearing used in ships, to resist the thrust of the propeller shaft and transmit it to the hull. Early thrust boxes [ edit ]

  3. Falcon 9 Block 5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falcon_9_Block_5

    Falcon 9 Block 5 is a partially reusable, human-rated, two-stage-to-orbit, medium-lift launch vehicle [c] designed and manufactured in the United States by SpaceX. It is the fifth major version of the Falcon 9 family and the third version of the Falcon 9 Full Thrust .

  4. Thrust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust

    Thrust is a reaction force described quantitatively by Newton's third law. When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction, the accelerated mass will cause a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction to be applied to that system. [ 2 ]

  6. Aerodynamic force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerodynamic_force

    The aerodynamic force is the resultant vector from adding the lift vector, perpendicular to the flow direction, and the drag vector, parallel to the flow direction. Forces on an aerofoil . In fluid mechanics , an aerodynamic force is a force exerted on a body by the air (or other gas ) in which the body is immersed, and is due to the relative ...

  7. Contact force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_force

    In the first case the force is continuously applied to the car by a person, while in the second case the force is delivered in a short impulse. Contact forces are often decomposed into orthogonal components, one perpendicular to the surface(s) in contact called the normal force, and one parallel to the surface(s) in contact, called the friction ...

    Falcon 9 Full Thrust (version 1.2 / Block 3) was the first version of the Falcon 9 to successfully land. Changes included a larger fuel tank, uprated engines and supercooled propellant and oxidizer to increase performance. Block 3 and Block 4 are found in this list while the active Block 5 is listed separately.
