9/11 Attack by Jonathan Tolentino

THE SEPTEMBER 11 ATTACK

The September 11 attacks (also referred to as September 11, September 11th or 9/11[nb 1]) were a series of four coordinated suicide attacks upon the United States in New York City and the Washington, D.C. areas on September 11, 2001. On that Tuesday morning, 19 terrorists from the Islamist militant group al-Qaeda hijacked four passenger jets. The hijackers intentionally crashed two planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City; both towers collapsed within two hours. Hijackers crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. The fourth jet, United Airlines Flight 93, crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania after passengers attempted to take control before it could reach the hijackers' intended target in Washington, D.C. Nearly 3,000 died in the attacks.

Suspicion quickly fell on al-Qaeda, and in 2004, the group's leader Osama bin Laden, who had initially denied involvement, claimed responsibility for the attacks.[1] Al-Qaeda and bin Laden cited U.S. support of Israel, the presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia, and sanctions against Iraq as motives for the attacks. The United States responded to the attacks by launching the War on Terror and invading Afghanistan to depose the Taliban, which had harbored al-Qaeda. Many countries strengthened their anti-terrorism legislation and expanded law enforcement powers. In May 2011, after years at large, bin Laden was found and killed.

The destruction of the twin towers caused serious damage to the economy of Lower Manhattan and had a significant impact on global markets. Cleanup of the World Trade Center site was completed in May 2002, and the Pentagon was repaired within a year. Numerous memorials were constructed, including the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York, the Pentagon Memorial, and the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania. Adjacent to the National Memorial, the 1,776 feet (541 m) One World Trade Center is expected to be completed in 2013.

Early on the morning of September 11, 2001, 19 hijackers took control of four commercial airliners (two Boeing 757s and two Boeing 767s) en route to San Francisco or Los Angeles after takeoffs from Boston, Massachusetts, Newark, New Jersey, and Washington, D.C.[3] Planes with long flights were intentionally selected for hijacking because they would be heavily fueled.[4]

The four flights involved were:

American Airlines Flight 11: Left Boston's Logan Airport at 7:59 a.m. enroute to Los Angeles with a crew of 11 and 76 passengers, not including five hijackers. The hijackers flew the plane into the North Tower of the World Trade Center at 8:46 a.m.

United Airlines Flight 175: Left Logan Airport at 8:14 a.m. enroute to Los Angeles with a crew of nine and 51 passengers, not including five hijackers. The hijackers flew the plane into the South Tower of the World Trade Center at 9:03 a.m.

American Airlines Flight 77: Left Washington Dulles International Airport in Northern Virginia at 8:20 a.m. enroute to Los Angeles with a crew of six and 53 passengers, not including five hijackers. The hijackers flew the plane into the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m.

United Airlines Flight 93: Left Newark International Airport at 8:42 a.m. enroute to San Francisco, with a crew of seven and 33 passengers, not including four hijackers. After the passengers revolted the hijackers crashed the plane into the ground near Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 10:03 a.m.

Media coverage was intense during the attacks and aftermath, beginning moments after the first crash into the World Trade Center.

POINT OF VIEW:

This event is really shocking. The world was stop when they know that the America, a highly advance country was beaten by a terrorist. Many people can’t believe on what happen. That event is a big lesson for the American. That they must not depend there country in their highly advance gadget always, that sometimes they must use their common sense. They are so logical not practical.

America: The 9/11 Attack

The 9/11 Attack

On September 11, 2001, four planes were originally scheduled to leave U.S. airports within twelve minutes of each other. Aboard each plane were terrorists who were part of a coordinated attack plan.

 American Airlines Flight 11, a Boeing 767, left Boston for Los Angeles at 7:59 EDT. Mohamed Atta, and other hijackers, commandeered the plane and crashed it into the North Tower of the World Trade Center (between the 95th and 103rd floors) at 8:46:40 EDT.

Another Boeing jet, this one a 757 owned and operated by United Airlines, left Boston at 8:14 EDT. Terrorists took control of the plane which was also bound for Los Angeles and flying as United 175. At 09:03 EDT, they rammed it into the Trade Center’s South Tower at about the 80th floor.

At 08:20 EDT, American Airlines Flight 77, a Boeing 757, left Washington’s Dulles Airport for Los Angeles. Terrorists took control of the plane, returning it to Washington. Approaching the city from the southwest, the hijackers made a 270-degree turn. They crashed the plane into the Pentagon, causing a five-story section to collapse.

United 93, a Boeing 757 bound for San Francisco, left Newark at 08:42 EDT. Armed with knife-like instruments and a box they said was a bomb, terrorists took control forty-six minutes after takeoff while the plane was at 35,000 feet, above eastern Ohio. The aircraft “suddenly dropped 700 feet.”

Using voice-recording transcripts, investigators concluded that Flight 93 passengers averted another terrorist strike on a Washington, D.C. target. At 10:10 EDT, the plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania (about 80 miles southeast of Pittsburgh).

Comment:

There is no safer place than to be in the arms of God. Technologies, no matter the how high, big, wide, and small it is, still it cannot us guarantee security.

The 9/11 attack is an alarm to everyone for the other upcoming turmoil. The most important thing to do is to be ready by heart. Where our heart is place with? Where do we want to spend eternity when tragedy like this happens?

We cannot change what happens in the past. But we can always change our future by deciding to do what is right. Start today, maybe tomorrow is late.

9th Eleven Attacks by Rudy

9^th Eleven Attacks

On September 11, 2001, 19 militants allied with the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda hijacked four airliners and carried out suicide attacks in contradiction of targets in the United States. Two of the planes were flown into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a third plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Often referred to as 9/11, the attacks resulted in wide-ranging death and destruction, activating major U.S. wits to combat terrorism and defining the presidency of George W. Bush. Over 3,000 people were killed during the attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C., including more than 400 police officers and firefighters.

   Too much buoyancy may sometimes cause to untidiness or a big tricky. Just like what happen to United State specifically in World trade Center. When the whole world heard that news, the world can’t believe it because they did not expect it to happen. The rationalized country in terms of technology was beaten by the terrorist in that laidback system.

Tranformers

A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through inductively coupled conductors—the transformer's coils.

Discovery 1831

Michael Faraday

Joseph Henry

 

INDUCTION COIL

Heinrich Ruhmkorff

 

a type of disruptive discharge coil.
It is a type of electrical transformer used to produce high-voltage pulses from a low-voltage direct current (DC) supply. 

 ELECTRIC GENERATOR 

 Anyos Jediks

In electricity generation, an electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. A generator forces electrons in the windings to flow through the external electrical circuit. It is somewhat analogous to a water pump, which creates a flow of water but does not create the water inside. The source of mechanical energy may be a reciprocating or turbine steam engine, water falling through a turbine or waterwheel, an internal combustion engine, a wind turbine, a hand crank, compressed air or any other source of mechanical energy.

Early 20th century alternator made in Budapest, Hungary, in the power generating hall of a hydroelectric station

Early Ganz Generator in Zwevegem, West Flanders, Belgium

The reverse conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy is done by an electric motor, and motors and generators have many similarities. In fact many motors can be mechanically driven to generate electricity, and very frequently make acceptable generators.

Excitation (magnetic)

 An electric generator or electric motor consists of a rotor spinning in a magnetic field. The magnetic field may be produced by permanent magnets or by field coils. In the case of a machine with field coils, a current must flow in the coils to generate the field, otherwise no power is transferred to or from the rotor. The process of generating a magnetic field by means of an electric current is called excitation.

 Dynamo

 

 A dynamo (from the Greek word dynamis; meaning power), originally another name for an electrical generator, generally means a generator that produces direct current with the use of a commutator. Dynamos were the first electrical generators capable of delivering power for industry, and the foundation upon which many other later electric-power conversion devices were based, including the electric motor, the alternating-current alternator, and the rotary converter. Today, the simpler alternator dominates large scale power generation, for efficiency, reliability and cost reasons. A dynamo has the disadvantages of a mechanical commutator. Also, converting alternating to direct current using power rectification devices (hollow state or more recently solid state) is effective and usually economic.

TRANSFORMER robots - Chris Ryall

Christopher "Chris" Ryall (born on April 2, 1969) is best known as the Chief Creative Office and Editor-in-Chief of IDW Publishing (2004–Present), and as a writer in the comic book industry. In February 2011, his Eisner Award-nominated series, Zombies vs. Robots, co-created with artist Ashley Wood, was optioned by Sony Pictures for Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes. He lives in San Diego with his wife Julie and daughter Lucy. He really  love about the robotics.. Then after he gain his challenge to make a comics about on that their is some reason why he more extended the Topic about the Transformer that is now the famous movie.

 MY OPINION : 

How nice technology to have now in our new generation .. Everyone know how to make some robots to perform into our small world a nice inspiration.. Not all the time living human will work for everyday needs. Before transformer its just a plugging electricity to convert a certain thing to use by the person. But now it not only can convert electricity but also can transform just like that a robot.. Before during my childhood days transformer its just in the comics that i read. But in the real world transformer is a amazing gadgets that transform into a robotics statue. People are so intelligent to make this thing that combining all the types of transformer that it will transform to robots. Transformer perform a lot of thing into real world.
