Assembly Line: A manufacturing process in which parts are added as the semi finished assembly moves from work station to work station where parts are added in sequence until the final assembly is produced.
RPM: Revolutions per minute. Measures the frequency of rotation around the axis in the span of one minute
Chassis:  the frame, wheels, and machinery of a motor vehicle, on which the body is supported.
Horse Power: A unit of measurement used to express engine output in horse strength. a foot-pound-second unit of power, equivalent to 550 foot-pounds per second, or 745.7 watts.
Torque: something that produces or tends to produce torsion or rotation; the moment of a force or system of forces tending to cause rotation.
Exhaust: the escape of steam or gases from the cylinder of an engine.
Cylinder: the "hole" where the piston slides up and down. the more cylinders the vehicle has the more power and the smoother the engine will
Piston: a disk or cylindrical part tightly fitting and moving within a cylinder, either to compress or move a fluid collected in the cylinder, as air or water, or to transform energy imparted by a fluid entering or expanding inside the cylinder, as compressed air, explosive gases, or steam, into a rectilinear motion usually transformed into rotary motion by means of a connecting rod.]]> 2017-11-30 16:03:38 UTC https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/211920499 cdfarrell https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212687370 2017-12-04 01:41:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212687370 cdfarrell https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212687452 2017-12-04 01:42:27 UTC https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212687452 cdfarrell https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212690541 2017-12-04 02:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212690541 cdfarrell https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212690779 Since the company's founding in 1903, the name Ford has been associated with the automotive industry. Henry Ford Sr. the company founder became known for innovation, transforming cars into commodities for the masses and turning his company into an American icon. While working as an engineer for the Edisons Illuminating Company in Detroit, Henry Ford built his first gasoline-powered horseless carriage, the Quadricycle, in the shed behind his home. Five years later the company rolled out the first Model T. In order to meet overwhelming demand for the revolutionary vehicle, Ford introduced revolutionary new mass-production methods, including large production plants, the use of standardized, interchangeable parts and, in 1913, the world’s first moving assembly line for cars.  Enormously influential in the industrial world, Ford was also outspoken in the political realm.                                                                                                                                                                                      Mass production significantly cut down on the time required to produce an automobile, which allowed costs to stay low. In 1914, Ford also increased the daily wage for an eight-hour day for his workers to $5 (up from $2.34 for nine hours), setting a standard for the industry. Henry Ford changed society in many different ways and fundamentally changed the way people transport as well as creating a whole new stand alone business that had no immediate competition because the idea was so advanced for its time leading to a extremely lucrative business. Henry Ford was an extremely successful man who paved the way for future car development and started a movement that is still alive today and is a large part of consumers daily lives. ]]> 2017-12-04 02:12:21 UTC https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212690779 cdfarrell https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212692982 2017-12-04 02:30:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cdfarrell/15k7feuhqzlq/wish/212692982
