Tõuked

Tõuked, also known as thrusters, are propulsion devices used to generate thrust in a specific direction. They are commonly used in various applications, including spacecraft, underwater vehicles, and even some terrestrial vehicles. Thrusters operate by expelling mass in one direction, which, according to Newton's third law of motion, generates an equal and opposite force, propelling the vehicle in the desired direction.

In spacecraft, thrusters are crucial for orbital maneuvers, attitude control, and station-keeping. They can use various propellants, such as liquid or solid fuels, and are designed to provide precise control over the spacecraft's movement. Underwater thrusters are used in remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to navigate and perform tasks in the ocean. These thrusters typically use electric motors to drive propellers or ducted fans, providing efficient and quiet propulsion.

Tõuked can also be found in terrestrial applications, such as in some high-performance cars and drones. In these cases, thrusters are used to provide additional thrust for acceleration, maneuvering, or vertical takeoff and landing. The design and efficiency of thrusters can vary significantly depending on the application and the specific requirements of the vehicle or system in which they are used.
