TRANSPORTATION ( Classification )
  • Transportation is the one of important thing in
    our life.
  • If there was not transportation, how would we go
    somewhere or how would goods be transported?
  • In ancient times, new places were explored and
    also nowadays, space is being discovered through
    transportation.
  • If nothing moves, nothing happens. Namely, life
    without transportation can not be thought.

  • Acording to their places transportation can be
    divided into three groups which are land, sea
    and air transportation
  •  The first group is land transportation. Cars,
    trucks, vans and pickups are examples of this
    group. These vehicles move on wheels and they can
    go everywhere on land. Land transportation is the
    most common way in the world. It is always
    prefered for short distances. Most of us use this
    way everyday.

  • Railcars are shorter than train and is used
    mainly to carry passengers and mail .

13
  • The second group is sea transportation. This
    group includes ships, boats, ferries and yachts.
    This way is used since ancient times. If we
    ignore conguest of Istanbul, this vehicles go to
    sea through buoyant. Sea way is the slowest way.
    However, sea vehicles can be very big. Therefore,
    they can transport huge amounts.
  • Ship a large boat which carries passengers or
    cargo

  • Boats is something which people can travel
    across water

  • Ferry - A ferry (or ferryboat) is a boat or ship
    (a merchant vessel) used to carry (or ferry)
    primarily passengers, and sometimes vehicles and
    cargo as well, across a body of water.

16
  • Yacht - is a recreational boat or ship. The term
    originated from the Dutch Jacht meaning
    "hunt".note 1 It was originally defined as a
    light fast sailing vessel used by the Dutch navy
    to pursue pirates and other transgressors around
    and into the shallow waters of the Low Countries.

17
  • The last group is air transportation. Airplanes,
    helicopters, cargo planes and jumbo jets are
    member of this group. Although this way was used
    for wars, nowadays it is mostly used for
    passenger transportation. Since  it is the
    fastest way and not very expensive, it became
    very common way.

    that is propelled forward by thrust from a jet
    engine or propeller.

    roller coaster with an electric spiral lift
    mechanism.It was one of the first coasters in the
    world to utilize this particular lift mechanism,
    and the coaster was also the first of its model
    type

  • In conclusion, transportation is already in our
    daily life and we need to use it. So it is the
    one of indispensable thing in our life. We always
    need to go from somewhere to another and goods
    needs to be transported. For all these, there are
    different transportatins. We always use land way
    to go home, school, work or anywhere else. So, we
    can reach land vehicles everywhere. Goods are
    always transported by ships. It is slower, but it
    is cheap way and it can take huge amounts. For
    long distances we always use airlines, as it is
    so fast. You can reach everywhere you like.
    Namely, transportation is part of our life.
