Bukan Khayalan, Kereta Santa Claus Tuuh Kekuatan Roket Satur V NASA Untuk Terbangan Inter Berkal Natal

JAKARTA Towards Christmas, Santa Clause or Santa Clause is usually an interesting topic of conversation. Imaged on a deer-catching flying train, this Christmas icon visits homes to give gifts to children.

But to realize an airplane, it's actually not that simple. Physicists say Santa Claus glides have the potential to fly if they have some major modifications, including a pair of wings similar to commercial aircraft.

According to their calculations, Santa Clausian gliders require engines with thrust equivalent to those produced by NASA's Saturn V rocket or 150 Boeing 747-400 aircraft.

This train must also move at a speed of 12.300 miles per hour (5,500 meters per second) about 10 times the speed of sound to produce sufficient lift.

The study was written by physics students at the University of Leicester, inspired by a scene in the 2003 Elf film, where Santa Claus had to rely on jet engines to drive his gliders.

The study was published in the Journal of Physics Special Topics, a special journal for Leicester students to showcase their work.

"We have concluded that Santa Claus' jet engine must be very powerful and as a result he and the▁tujuans must have access to advanced technology," said Ryan55, co-author of the paper at Leicester, as quoted by the Daily Mail Online.

"Let's definitely have access to a new type of jet engine technology that can replace the effects of the Christmas spirit," he wrote.

Students want to create a simple model that applies some basic physical concepts to the problem of keeping trains in order to keep flying.

This calculation only takes into account the masses of the train and the mass of the prizes, but not the masses of nine deer and Santa, which can be 'improved'.

They assumed Santa had a 19th-century British naval glider weighing 635kg, modified with a pair of wings from the Boeing 747 attached to both sides.

Students calculated the thrust that Santa Claus gliders needed to keep flying during his ambitious visit on Christmas Eve, as well as how powerful the jet engine was.

To keep Santa Claus's gliders flying flat, the weight of the gliders must be balanced with lift, when the air flows above the wings at lower pressures than the air flowing below them.

By weighing all the gifts for 'good' children in the world, they count the gliders must move at a speed of 12.300 miles per hour to produce enough lift.

An engine that drives the train at that speed needs to provide enough thrust not only to hold on to that speed, but also to balance the effects of air drag, which will be larger at high speed.

They know that this will require a thrust of 38 million newtons roughly the equivalent of 150 Boeing 747-400 engines or the Saturn V rocket used for Apollo missions during the 1960s and 1970s.

While this is one of the lighter research papers, it offers a useful form of evidence for parents to offer their children who don't believe it.

This suggests that Santa Claus trains could theoretically exist and could fly, with some modern technological improvements.

Students at Leicester had previously suggested several theories to explain Santa's lively achievements, including calculating the speed needed to deliver all the prizes in one night.

The journal Special Topics of University Physics allows undergraduate physics students to learn about peer review processes by writing and reviewing papers by applying the theoretical concept to mild ideas.

"The process the students went through mimics research by real physicists working on interesting topics from black holes to cancer treatment," said Professor Mervyn Roy, education director of Leicester School of Physics and Astronomy.

"We have to investigate new problems and approach solutions in a creative way, we have to clearly communicate our findings, and these results are examined by fellow scientists as part of a peer-reviewed process," Roy said.
