For comparison, Sirius has an absolute magnitude of 1. 4 which is greater than the Sun's absolute visual magnitude of 4. 83 ( it actually serves as a reference point ).

For comparison, a Roman 1st BC century catapult using stones of 6. 55 kg fired with a kinetic energy of 16, 000 joules, while a mid 19th century 12 pound cannon firing projectiles of 4. 1 kg fired the projectile with a kinetic energy of 240, 000 joules.

For comparison purposes that is approximately the same size as Aylesbury, Carlisle, Guildford or Scunthorpe urban areas.

For comparison, the equator of the Sun requires just over 25 days for a complete rotation.

For comparison, Internet penetration in the Ukraine was 33. 7 %, in Romania 35. 5 %, Russia 42. 8 %, and Serbia 55. 9 %.

For the Bandanese, on the other hand, although they welcomed another competitor purchaser for their spices, the items of trade offered by the Dutch — heavy woollens, and damasks, unwanted manufactured goods, for example — were usually unsuitable in comparison to traditional trade products.

For this reason, the history of Cairo during Ottoman times is often described as inconsequential, especially in comparison to other time periods.

For example, Darwinism may be used to refer to Darwin's proposed mechanism of natural selection, in comparison to more recent mechanisms such as genetic drift and gene flow.

For comparison, treating of cotton during a typical U. S. growing season requires the same amount of chemical as roughly 1, 700 homes.

For example, it may be more cost-efficient to obtain the desired level of performance by using a cluster of several low-end computers, in comparison with a single high-end computer.

For comparison, London shipped 18, 727, 230 tons ( 16 billion kg ), and New York shipped 20, 390, 953 tons ( 18 billion kg ).

For comparison:

For comparison, a mouse with a normal amount of adipose tissue is shown on the right.

For example, there is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically lost whatever debate was in progress.

For comparison, the energy density of TNT is 4. 7 megajoules per kilogram, and the energy density of gasoline is 47. 2 megajoules per kilogram.

For example, take the following comparison of execution time of computer programs:

For comparison, the average was 73. 3 days in Latin America and 16. 3 days in OECD countries.

For comparison, the other two general conic sections, the ellipse and the parabola, derive from the corresponding Greek words for " deficient " and " comparable "; these terms may refer to the eccentricity of these curves, which is greater than one ( hyperbola ), less than one ( ellipse ) and exactly one ( parabola ), respectively.

For comparison, the most efficient small four-stroke motors are around 43 % thermal efficiency ( SAE 900648 ); size is an advantage for efficiency due to the increase in the ratio of volume to surface area.

For comparison, consider a similar example written in Java-based pseudocode:

For comparison, a capacitor stores energy in an electric field, and a resistor does not store energy but rather dissipates energy as heat.

For comparison, cooking, smoking, salting etc.

For comparison, milk heat pasteurization is not being alleged to be a method " to cover up poor food quality "; consequently, food irradiation should not be accused to serve such criminal purposes.

For comparison, woven garments stretch mainly along one direction ( the bias ) and are not very elastic, unless they are woven from stretchable material such as spandex.

For example, the automorphisms of the Riemann sphere are Möbius transformations.

For a solid shape such as a sphere, cone, or cylinder, the area of its boundary surface is called the surface area.

For example, the same techniques used to model ideal gases can be applied to model the behavior of a hard sphere colloidal suspension.

For example, a candle's flame takes the shape of a sphere.

For convenience, such lists usually include infractions although, in the U. S., they may come into the sphere not of the criminal law, but rather of the civil law.

For example, the oblateness of a sphere of freely flowing material is often explained in terms of centrifugal force.

For example: some early medieval manuscripts of Macrobius include maps of the Earth, including the antipodes, zonal maps showing the Ptolemaic climates derived from the concept of a spherical Earth and a diagram showing the Earth ( labeled as globus terrae, the sphere of the Earth ) at the center of the hierarchically ordered planetary spheres.

Feminists, beginning in the late 18th century with Mary Wollstonecraft in 1792 have criticized Rousseau for his confinement of women to the domestic sphere — unless women were domesticated and constrained by modesty and shame, he feared " men would be tyrannized by women ... For, given the ease with which women arouse men's senses ... men would finally be their victims ...." His contemporaries saw it differently because Rousseau thought that mothers should breastfeed their children.

For example a spherical polygon is drawn on the surface of a sphere, and its sides are arcs of great circles.

For compact space | compact 2-dimensional surfaces without boundary ( topology ) | boundary, if every loop can be continuously tightened to a point, then the surface is topologically Homeomorphism | homeomorphic to a 2-sphere ( usually just called a sphere ).

For example the pure qubit state would lie on the equator of the sphere, on the positive y axis.

For example, if the objects are long and thin then a sphere will enclose mainly empty space and a box is much better.

For right ascension, the primary direction is known as the vernal equinox or the first point of Aries, which is the place on the celestial sphere where the Sun crosses the celestial equator from south to north at the March equinox.

For most practical purposes, the volume of a sphere inscribed in a cube can be approximated as 52. 4 % of the volume of the cube, since.

For example, since a cube with edge length 1 m has a volume of 1 m < sup > 3 </ sup >, a sphere with diameter 1 m has a volume of about 0. 524 m < sup > 3 </ sup >.

For this reason, the sphere appears in nature: for instance bubbles and small water drops are roughly spherical, because the surface tension locally minimizes surface area.

For example, in Z < sup > n </ sup > with Euclidean metric, a sphere of radius r is nonempty only if r < sup > 2 </ sup > can be written as sum of n squares of integers.

For the sphere each normal section through a given point will be a circle of the same radius, the radius of the sphere.

#: For the sphere the curvatures of all normal sections are equal, so every point is an umbilic.

For the sphere the center of every osculating circle is at the center of the sphere and the focal surface forms a single point.

For the sphere the geodesics are great circles.

For every sphere there are multiple cuboids that may be inscribed within the sphere.
