Concrete should be troweled to a smooth even surface and be aged for at least 90 days. Expansion joints should be properly filled. Neutralize the surface of the concrete. Use either 1 part Muriatic Acid and 9 parts water or 1 part vinegar and 5 parts water to make a good neutralizing agent.
Cedar Pointâs Top Thrill Dragster relies on the power density of hydraulics. August 29, 2014 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment. As it embarked on yet another one of its record-breaking, thrill-seeking rides, Cedar Point quickly turned to hydraulics, for the power density and precision control it offers.
These cars compete in a 1/4 mile (0.4 km) race and complete it in less than 4.5 seconds at upwards of 330 mph (530 km/h). A Top Fuel dragster accelerates from 0 to 100 mph (160 km/h) in less than 0.8 second, subjecting the driver to a force about 5.7 times his weight.he nitromethane used to power the engines of top fuel dragsters costs about US$30 per U.S. gallon (US$8/L). Top Fuel dragsters use between 10 and 12 U.S. gallons (38 to 45 L) of fuel for a complete pass, including the burnout, backup to the starting line, and quarter-mile run.
