    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocycle

    A hydrocycle is a bicycle-like watercraft. The concept was known in the 1870s as a water velocipede [1] and the name was in use by the late 1890s. [2] Power is collected from the rider via a crank with pedals, as on a bicycle, and delivered to the water or the air via a propeller. [3]

    A speed test on water achieved an average speed of 1.12 m/s. The cyclist could transition the cycle in and out of the water while unassisted. This prototype has real applications in urban areas of flooding, as well as applications in the leisure industry. The Ocean Biker, Ebrahim Hemmatnia in his boat bike, March 2015, João Pessoa, Brazil.

  4. Gasoline pill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_pill

    Based on the above equation, a pill that turns a kilogram of water into gasoline would need to contain 592.60 grams of carbon. The claims discussed here do not address the source of carbon needed to make up the balance , and instead propose that just a small amount of X would suffice, which is impossible due to conservation of mass .

    It is also estimated that the oceans supply about 90% of the evaporated water that goes into the water cycle. [20] The Earth's ice caps, glaciers, and permanent snowpack stores another 24,064,000 km 3 accounting for only 1.7% of the planet's total water volume. However, this quantity of water is 68.7% of all freshwater on the planet. [21]

    A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. [19] A hydroelectric powerplant converts the mechanical energy of water in a storage dam into electrical energy. [20] An internal combustion engine is a heat engine that obtains mechanical energy from chemical energy by burning fuel. From this mechanical energy, the internal ...

    From a mechanical viewpoint, up to 99% of the mechanical energy delivered by the rider into the pedals is transmitted to the wheels (clean, lubricated new chain at 400 W), although the use of gearing mechanisms reduces this by 1–7% (clean, well-lubricated derailleurs and a straight chainline), 4–12% (chain with 3-speed hubs), or 10–20% (shaft drive with 3-speed hubs).
