Completed in 1931, the Empire State Building in New York City, standing 102 stories (1,250 feet) high, was the tallest building

in the world for about 40 years until the completion of the twin towers of the World Trade Center in 1970, followed by the Sears Tower in Chicago in 1973. Recently, however, with the availability of more advanced technologies and building materials, skyscrapers are testing new limits. In 1998 the Petronas Towers in Malaysia, both standing 1,483 feet tall, became the world’s tallest buildings. Then came Taipei 101 in Taiwan, rising over 1,650 feet. Today the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, at 2,717 feet, is the world’s tallest building. If our wish is to someday live with our heads in the clouds, each new skyscraper takes us a little closer to that goal.

Summarize Review the text to find details about the different floors of the building.What is important to understand about these
german

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

from Flesh & Blood So Cheap by Albert Marrin

1. Summarize Review the text to find details about the different floors of the building. What is important to understand about these locations?

Answer:

It is important to understand that the infrastructure of the floors was precarious and insecure, which limited the time needed for workers to escape the fire. Because of this infrastructure, workers had a few minutes to escape, which made the situation much more dangerous.

Explanation:

In "Flesh & Blood So Cheap" we are introduced to the Triangle Waist Company which was located on the top floors of a building. On these floors there were about 40 men and women who worked on the site along with numerous machines and packaging and products that were kept in stock, like any company.

It was on these floors that the fire started putting the lives of workers who were supposed to be off the floors in minutes. This is because the building had a precarious infrastructure, which did not provide any type of security in cases of fire.

An airplane takes off when the upward force beneath its wings is greater than the downward force of gravity. Starting from when
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

There's no short answer.

Explanation:

The engines start working by burning fuel, this in turn starts turning the engine blades and the blades suck in air and push it out from the back of the engines. This creates a force that pushes the airplane forward. As the volume of air that goes in and out of the engines increase, so does the kinetic energy the airplane has. At a specific speed, depending a lot of factors such as the weight of the airplane, the length of the wings etc, the force that the moving air provides from beneath the wings surpasses the force of gravity that is applied to the plane, the plane takes off.

I hope this answer helps.
