Performance Measurement: One Sample Framework for Selecting Measurements. Â© Copyright Carter McNamara, MBA, PhD, Authenticity Consulting, LLC. Organizations try to manage the performance of each employee, team and process and even of the organization itself. The performance management process is very similar, regardless of where it is applied.
A trebuchet tends to be easier to build because it consists simply of a pivoting beam and a counterweight that rotates the beam through an arc. Catapults can launch things a fair distance -- 500 to 1,000 feet (150 to 300 meters) is common. It is surprising how much energy they can store. The gears are important, because they create a winch. The winch allows a person to put a great deal of energy into the catapult over a period of time.
1 Now test to see how accurate catapult-assisted takeoff is; although, in real situations jets are not catapulted off of aircraft carriers toward a target. 2  Put a wood stake in the ground, and set up the chair and pillow about 15 feet away from the first wood stake.hrust is the force that moves the airplane through the air. The engines on an airplane provide thrust to counteract drag. The third force is weight and is the action of gravity on the airplane. Finally, the fourth force is lift.
