Yes, a CVT uses a steel belt around two cones, and can have any ratio between them. Most race cars use mechanical transmissions with automatic controls as that's the most robust design. Some stunt vehicles use automatics or CVT as land

Slightly off topic but it has long bothered me that racing simulations let you pick arbitrary gear ratios in the tranissions and differentials. Real life has two restrictions, you can't have half teeth, and you can't have huge tee

Something like a hospital opening, and suddenly having a pile of patients to test, should result in a small spike in that graph. A quarantine being enacted in a city should cause a change in angle of the curve.

The machines I most admire are mechanical computers like the ones used in WWII era battle ships for targeting their long guns. Those machines performed differentiation and curve matching using cams and gears.

Spark plugs release wide band RF. Many transformers do too. Quick test, walk around with an AM radio set between stations so you only hear static and put it next to various things. That is how amateur radio operators find interferening emis

I have no personal issue with it, it's just that the developers have been saying not to use it for a while, at some point I begin to wonder why even include it any longer.

No, the A knot has the down-the-cable runs overlapping the around-the-cable loops. Which means if one of the down-the-cable runs lets go, it loses tension on the next. In B, since the around-the-cable loops are overlapping the down-the-cabl
