Because the fibers are aligned in the MD direction and consequently the sheet shrinks in the CD direction, resulting in a reduction in sheet width.

You use fins and a nose cone on a bottle rocket because the cone reduces the drag on the rocket, and the fins help stabilize the rocket.
Drag is one of the four forces applicable to a flying aircraft: thrust, drag, lift and weight. Drag is the amount of resistance to forward motion caused by a solid body moving through a fluid (air is considered a fluid for the purpose of aerodynamics). The easiest way to feel the effect of drag is to stick one's arm out a car window while it's moving. First do it palm-down (horizontal), and then palm-forward (vertical). The force, known as "drag", pushing the arm backward increases substantially when the palm is vertical. That force is the same effect that an aircraft in flight experiences due to the frontal area of its airframe forcing its way through the air. The science of aerodynamics seeks to minimize the drag through streamlining and other design factors, since drag wastes fuel, but it is physically impossible to elimnate it.
search google for 'drag and drop script' OR go and download script.aculo.us, and implement the great drag and drop scripts they have.
The big hog drag line was once the world's largest shovel. It was used for strip mining of coal in Drakesboro, KY.
No. Drag and drop is when you drag a file then drop it into the destination folder. You have moved a file from one place to another. Copy and paste is when you copy a file then paste it into a different location. The original file still remains where it was, but there is how a copy of it elsewhere as well.
