In your sales force, will a smaller number of higher-priced, high-quality salesmen serve you best, or can you make out better with a larger number of lower-paid salesmen??

Because the rake angle Af at the tip of the knife is very much smaller ( or even negative ) when compared to the value of **yc for the major portion of the knife, a very rapid increase in cutting force with thickness will result.

This is sometimes a result of the sizes of the atoms in the alloy, because larger atoms exert a compressive force on neighboring atoms, and smaller atoms exert a tensile force on their neighbors, helping the alloy resist deformation.

The French and Bavarian commanders eventually agreed on a plan and decided to attack Eugene's smaller force.

In Taviers on his right, he placed two battalions of the Greder Suisse Régiment, with a smaller force forward in Franquenée ; the whole position was protected by the boggy ground of the Mehaigne river, thus preventing an Allied flanking movement.

The meaning of the potential energy is that movement of a test body from a larger radius to a smaller radius involves doing work against the centrifugal force.

Initially the effective force was limited to smaller vessels, but this changed after the rise of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi in 1969.

He wrote, " I do not know what this Aether is ", but that if it consists of particles then they must be " exceedingly smaller than those of Air, or even than those of Light: The exceeding smallness of its Particles may contribute to the greatness of the force by which those Particles may recede from one another, and thereby make that Medium exceedingly more rare and elastic than Air, and by consequence exceedingly less able to resist the motions of Projectiles, and exceedingly more able to press upon gross Bodies, by endeavoring to expand itself.

Governments may force such companies to divide into smaller independent corporations as was the case of United States v. AT & T, or alter its behavior as was the case of United States v. Microsoft, to protect consumers.

Two objects within the same gravitational field will experience the same acceleration ; however, the object with a smaller passive gravitational mass will experience a smaller force ( less weight ) than the object with a larger passive gravitational mass.

In 1979 a smaller French force was again based permanently in Niger.

Because the nuclear force is stronger than the Coulomb force for atomic nuclei smaller than iron and nickel, building up these nuclei from lighter nuclei by fusion releases the extra energy from the net attraction of these particles.

* 1942 – World War II: Guadalcanal Campaign: Battle of Tassafaronga – A smaller squadron of Japanese destroyers led by Raizō Tanaka defeats a US cruiser force under Carleton H. Wright.

An orbital perturbation is when a force or impulse which is much smaller than the overall force or average impulse of the main gravitating body and which is external to the two orbiting bodies causes an acceleration, which changes the parameters of the orbit over time.

From L'Turu, I heard that until about 1850 the people of this island -- which was about the size of Guam or smaller -- had been of both sexes, and that the normal family life of Melanesian tribes was observed here with minor variations.

The request for lower rates originated with the Southern railway, which has spent a good deal of time and money developing a 100-ton hopper car with which it says it can move grain at about half what it costs in the conventional, smaller car.

Mold was used as pattern and clay cut by holding knife at about 45-degree angle, to form an undercut, making base smaller than the pattern top.

Zodiacal light and the gegenschein give some evidence for such a dust blanket, a phenomenon also to be expected if the dust before capture is in circular orbits about the sun, as indicated by the trend of the smaller visible meteors.

A distinction is sometimes made between the smaller adobes, which are about the size of ordinary baked bricks, and the larger adobines, some of which may be one to two yards ( 1 – 2 m ) long.

Ludgate's engine would be much smaller than Babbage's of about 8 cubic feet ( 230 L ) and hypothetically would be capable of multiplying two 20-decimal-digit numbers in about six seconds.

They were mostly chosen by lot, with a much smaller ( and more prestigious ) group of about 100 elected.

A third source, or set of sources, were cycles of stories about various prophets ( Elijah and Elisha, Isaiah, Ahijah and Micaiah ), plus a few smaller miscellaneous traditions.

In 1996, the Turkish Cypriot area showed a close, but smaller ratio of paved to unpaved with about 1, 370 km out of 2, 350 km paved and 980 km unpaved.

* The maximum practical size for CRTs is around 24 inches for computer monitors ; most direct view CRT televisions are 36 inches or smaller, with regular-production models limited to about 40 inches.

Although WMAP provided very accurate measurements of the great angular-scale fluctuations in the CMB ( structures about as broad in the sky as the moon ), it did not have the angular resolution to measure the smaller scale fluctuations which had been observed by former ground-based interferometers.

* Releasing a CPU on the same size die, but with a smaller CPU core, keeps the cost about the same but allows higher levels of integration within one VLSI chip ( additional cache, multiple CPUs, or other components ), improving performance and reducing overall system cost.

The golf discs used today are much smaller and heavier than traditional flying discs, typically about 8 or 9 inches ( 20 or 23 cm ) in diameter and weighing between 129 and 180 grams.

Drawing the underlying construction is a fundamental skill for representational art and is taught in many books and schools, as its correct application will resolve most uncertainties about smaller details and make the final image look self-consistent.

The Sinai Peninsula is a triangular-shaped peninsula, about 61, 100 km < sup > 2 </ sup > in area ( slightly smaller than the U. S. state of West Virginia ).

it has an inventory consisting of about thirty five large patrol craft ( each between twenty and thirty meters in length ) and twenty smaller Bertram-class coastal patrol craft built in the United States.

The energy required for this is always larger than about 10 electron volts ( eV ) corresponding with wavelengths smaller than 124 nm ( some sources suggest a more realistic cutoff of 33 eV, which is the energy required to ionize water ).

Erosion models are also non-linear, which makes them difficult to work with numerically, and makes it difficult or impossible to scale up to making predictions about large areas from data collected by sampling smaller plots.

By 1910 new smaller Danish companies began joining the business, and besides making more films about the white slave trade, they contributed other new subjects.

At a meeting of the Royal Astronomical Society in Britain, a team from University of Queensland described 40 unknown " dwarf " galaxies in this constellation ; follow-up observations with the Hubble Space Telescope and the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope revealed that ultra compact dwarfs are much smaller than previously known dwarf galaxies, about across.

OCI is a smaller branch, comprising about 200 agents nationwide.

A few smaller teams tried obsolete three-litre Formula One cars ( from Tyrrell, Williams, Minardi and RAM ), with little success — the Grand Prix and Indycar-derived entries were too unwieldy — their fuel tanks were about twice the size of those needed for F3000 races, and the weight distribution was not ideal.

The MP5 is actually designated as a " machine pistol " by Heckler & Koch ( MP5 stands for Maschinenpistole 5, or Machine Pistol 5 ), although some reserve this designation for even smaller submachine guns such as the MAC-10 and Glock 18, which are about the size and shape of pistols.
