  2. Trolling motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolling_motor

    A trolling motor is a self-contained marine propulsion unit that includes an electric motor, propeller and control system, and is affixed to an angler's boat, either at the bow or stern. A gasoline-powered outboard used in trolling , if it is not the vessel's primary source of propulsion, may also be referred to as a trolling motor.

  3. Outboard motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outboard_motor

    Basic parts of an outboard motor. An outboard motor is a propulsion system for boats, consisting of a self-contained unit that includes engine, gearbox and propeller or jet drive, designed to be affixed to the outside of the transom. They are the most common motorised method of propelling small watercraft.

  4. Thrust-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust-to-weight_ratio

    The thrust-to-weight ratio is usually calculated from initial gross weight at sea level on earth [6] and is sometimes called thrust-to-Earth-weight ratio. [7] The thrust-to-Earth-weight ratio of a rocket or rocket-propelled vehicle is an indicator of its acceleration expressed in multiples of earth's gravitational acceleration, g 0. [5]

  5. Model rocket motor classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_rocket_motor...

    The designation for a specific motor looks like C6-3.In this example, the letter (C) represents the total impulse range of the motor, the number (6) before the dash represents the average thrust in newtons, and the number (3) after the dash represents the delay in seconds from propelling charge burnout to the firing of the ejection charge (a gas generator composition, usually black powder ...

  9. Thrust curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust_curve

    A thrust curve for a model rocket. A thrust curve, sometimes known as a "performance curve" or "thrust profile" is a graph of the thrust of an engine or motor, (usually a rocket) with respect to time. [1] [2] Most engines do not produce linear thrust (thrust which increases at a constant rate with time).
