Engineering - February 2007

In the movie Executive Decision, a group of commandos, led by Kurt Russell and Steve Seagal, boarded a 747 from under the carriage in mid flight.

In reality, can this be done? Can an airplane like the 747 be boarded in mid air this way? Or does this happen only in the movies?

When driving around the country side you may drive over an old stone bridge with a weight limit. How did they come to that limit when the bridge could be 150-300 years old? They cant just keep putting more and more weight on it until in nearly collapses! LOL. Thanks

I need to make a container for science class and it needs to hold in as much heat as possible if I put in hot water. But I can't use a Thermos and the device has to fit on top of my desk. Also, I need to be able to open the device and put in the hot water. This device can not contain a heater or hot material of any kind except for the container of hot water. I'd like to keep the materials easy to find and cheap. Thanks!

If you look at ancient buildings (Roman etc) they are nearly always a meter or two lower than the current ground level, why is that? Do they sink with time or do they get covered up and buried. If they get buried does that mean that the surface of the earth is rising, that does not seem to make sense, the earth is not getting bigger.

I`m a 10th grade girl and am interested in engineering-particularily mechanical. My math and science background is very good-I have always been in the advanced courses. I`m trying to decide if I should go into engineering because I long to design and improve our world, but I had disliked a robotics and inventions class that I took. I`m not in love with math, but I`m fascinated by machines and how they work. What`s it really like being a mecha engineer?
