    spring. In some cases complete collapsing is prevented by its own rigidity. The capsule is mounted inside a case. The case is fed with static pressure from aircraft static tube/ vent. As the aircraft climbs the static pressure in the case decreases allowing the spring to pull the capsule faces apart. If the aircraft descends the rise in pressure in the case compresses the capsule faces. The linear movement of the capsule face is magnified and transmitted via a system of gears and linkages

    impact on the environment. Even if were to use wind energy‚ it would mean blocking the natural speed of a certain current. Its intensity would reduce after it would have crossed the windmill. As a result‚ the pressure equilibrium that it was meant to bring about will be affected. Atmospheric pressure is directly related to the weather conditions and hence the environment‚ in total. Thus‚ the quest to bring about economic growth

    bub Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a given time and place‚ with respect to variables such as temperature‚ moisture‚ wind velocity‚ and barometric pressure. Weather can be classified as day to day temperature and precipitation activity‚ where climiate is average atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time. Weather occurs from temperature and moisture differences between one place and another. These differences can occur due to the sun angle at any particular spot. The strong
