Impact Event
An impact event is a collision between astronomical objects causing measurable effects. Impact events have been found to regularly occur in planetary systems, though the most frequent involve asteroids, comets or meteoroids and have minimal effect. When large objects impact terrestrial planets such as the Earth, there can be significant physical and Biosphere, biospheric consequences, as the impacting body is usually traveling at several kilometres per second (km/s), with a minimum impact speed of 11.2 km/s (7.0 mi/s) for bodies striking Earth. Atmosphere, While planetary atmospheres can mitigate some of these impacts through the effects of atmospheric entry, many large bodies retain sufficient energy to reach the surface and cause substantial damage. This results in the formation of Impact crater, impact craters and Impact structure, structures, shaping the dominant landforms found across various types of solid objects found in the Solar System. Their prevalence and ubiquity pres ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Impactor (Transformers)
The Autobots are a fictional faction of sentient robots in the ''Transformers'' multimedia franchise. The Autobots are living robots from the planet Cybertron who, like most Transformers, are each imbued with a unique "life force" known as a "spark."Furman, Simon (2004). ''Transformers: The Ultimate Guide''. DK Publishing Inc. pp. 18–19. ''Transformers: Best Wars.'' "The Spark." (Season 1, Episode 15). Original air date: November 11, 1996. Led by Optimus Prime in most stories, the Autobots believe that "freedom is the right of all sentient life" and are often engaged in a civil war with the Decepticons, a faction of Transformers dedicated to military conquest and usually headed by Megatron. In a mirror universe portrayed in '' Transformers: Shattered Glass'', the Autobots are villains opposed by the heroic Decepticons. The transformation cog ("T-cog") and the living metal of each transformer's body allows them to change from their natural robotic body into an "alternate ...

Impactor (spacecraft)
A lander is a spacecraft that descends towards, then comes to rest on the surface of an astronomical body other than Earth. In contrast to an impact probe, which makes a hard landing that damages or destroys the probe upon reaching the surface, a lander makes a soft landing (rocketry), soft landing after which the probe remains functional. For bodies with Celestial body atmosphere, atmospheres, the landing occurs after atmospheric reentry, atmospheric entry. In these cases, landers may employ Parachute, parachutes to slow them down enough to maintain a low terminal velocity. In some cases, small landing rockets will be fired just before impact in order to reduce the lander's velocity. Landing may be accomplished by Spacecraft attitude control, controlled descent and set down on Spacecraft lander landing gear, landing gear, with the possible addition of a post-landing attachment mechanism (such as the mechanism used by ''Philae (spacecraft), Philae'') for celestial bodies with lo ...

Impact Wrench
An impact wrench (also known as an impactor, impact gun, air wrench, air gun, rattle gun, torque gun, windy gun) is a socket wrench power tool designed to deliver high torque output with minimal exertion by the user, by storing energy in a rotating mass, then delivering it suddenly to the output shaft. It was invented by Robert H. Pott of Evansville, Indiana. Compressed air is the most common power source, although electric or hydraulic power is also used, with cordless electric devices becoming increasingly popular since the mid-2000s. Impact wrenches are widely used in many industries, such as automotive repair, heavy equipment maintenance, product assembly, major construction projects, and any other instance where a high torque output is needed. For product assembly, a pulse tool is commonly used, as it features a reactionless tightening while reducing the noise levels the regular impacts suffer from. Pulse tools use oil as a medium to transfer the kinetic energy from ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
IMP (band)
, formerly known as Impactors (stylized as IMPACTors), is a Japanese boy band associated with Tobe. They made their official debut on 18 August 2023 with the digital release of their first single "Cruisin'". The group colors are black and magenta pink, and the "." (dot) at the end of the group name is written in pink, such as "IMP ". History The group was formed on 16 October 2020, as part of Johnny & Associates' Johnny's Jr. as Impactors, the name given by Hideaki Takizawa. The name IMPACTors comes from the combination of "IMPACT" meaning "shock" and "ACTOR" meaning "to make an impact on the world, to leave a shock and a legend behind." "IMPACT" is written in black, representing "coolness," while "ors" is written in pink, representing "transience and mystery," with the meaning "just as there is pink in black, show your different sides as well." The group left the agency on 25 May 2023. On July 14,2023, they announced on a YouTube livestream that they would be joining e ...
