History Fluid Mechanics

What do you think about this…?
Okay so i’m going to be getting my first car soon, and my grandma is offering her Crystler Spirit. It has like 54,00 miles on it its a 1995. It has some rust and the power steering fluid leaks. Also, there are no power windows or power locks. One good thing about it, is she bought it brand new, and so she has been the only owner, which is good because then i’ll know the history. She’s selling it to me for about 1,000 dollars..Do you think that’s a good deal? Do you think this is like a good first car? Or is it too much of a grandma car…i’m a girl if that matters..

thats not hers but, its the same color and same year.
**I know you dont know a lot about it..but those are the basic ups and downs about it.. And i dont want to be too picky about a first car.
*Also, my Dad and 2 of my uncles are mechanics so some of the problems will not be difficult to fix, because they will be able to.
It sounds like a pretty good deal to me. It looks like it will make a great first car.

Worlds of Flow: A history of hydrodynamics from the Bernoullis to Prandtl $31.38 The first of its kind, this book is an in-depth history of hydrodynamics from its eighteenth-century foundations to its first major successes in twentieth-century hydraulics and aeronautics. It documents the foundational role of fluid mechanics in developing a new mathematical physics. It gives full and clear accounts of the conceptual breakthroughs of physicists and engineers who tried to meet ch… |

Leviathan and the Air-Pump: Hobbes, Boyle, and the Experimental Life $24.13 In the aftermath of the English Civil War, as people were groping for new forms of political order, Robert Boyle built an air-pump to do experiments. Does the story of Roundheads and Restoration have something to do with the origins of experimental science? Schaffer and Shapin believed it does. Focusing on the debates between Boyle and his archcritic Thomas Hobbes over the air-pump, the author… |

What Makes Airplanes Fly? $39.95 Dealing with aerodynamics in the broadest sense, this book discusses, in addition to aeroplanes, the aerodynamics of cars and birds, and the motion of diverse objects through air and water. The fundamental notions of mechanics and fluid dynamics are clearly explained, while the underlying science is discussed rigorously, but using only elementary mathematics, and then only occasionally. To put the… |
