Alternatively, 5 ml from a neutron star of radius 20 km radius ( average density ) has a mass of about 400 million metric tons, or about the mass of all humans .</ ref > The resulting force of gravity is so strong that if an object were to fall from a height of one meter it would only take one microsecond to hit the surface of the neutron star, and would do so at around 2000 kilometers per second, or 7. 2 million kilometers per hour.

Alternatively, if the two waves of the same wavelength and frequency are out of phase, then the wave crests will align with wave troughs and vice-versa.

Alternatively, if the last step is carried out in air:

( Alternatively, for a preorder "", a relation "<" can be defined as a < b if and only if ( a b and a ≠ b ).

Alternatively, if several different minerals can be dated from the same sample and are assumed to be formed by the same event and were in equilibrium with the reservoir when they formed, they should form an isochron.

Alternatively, if M is a linear subspace then ; apply this inequality to the subspace defined by the ( orthogonal ) complement of the image of BC in the image of B, whose dimension is ; its image under A has dimension

Alternatively, if the excited-state atom is perturbed by an electric field of frequency, it may emit an additional photon of the same frequency and in phase, thus augmenting the external field, leaving the atom in the lower energy state.

Alternatively, since expendable multistage rockets entail discarding costly structure and engines, if the stages could be reused, this could permit much cheaper operation since the parts costs would be amortized over many flights.

Alternatively, if a predatory ancestor already flying and therefore with long forelimbs, used them to capture prey, it could be pulled on to a predatory foot claw, later inherited and demonstrated by the fighting Velociraptor.

Alternatively, if,, and are known, but is not adjustable, the voltage difference across or current flow through the meter can be used to calculate the value of, using Kirchhoff's circuit laws ( also known as Kirchhoff's rules ).

Alternatively, if we want to have reasonable discussion we may be practically forced to accept Occam's razor in the same way we are simply forced to accept the laws of thought and inductive reasoning ( given the problem of induction ).

Alternatively, if the magma is erupted it forms volcanic rocks such as basalt, andesite and rhyolite ( the extrusive equivalents of gabbro, diorite and granite, respectively ).

Alternatively, if a strip with an even number of half-twists is cut in half along its length, it will result in two linked strips, each with the same number of twists as the original.

Alternatively, if the data matches the machine address, the data is accepted.

Alternatively, some agree that negative rights may be violated by a government action, but argue that it is justifiable if the positive rights protected outweigh the negative rights lost.

Alternatively, if is discrete, one can construct as the set of all ultrafilters on, with a topology known as Stone topology.

Alternatively, the film is processed to invert the negative image, yielding positive transparencies.

Alternatively, laboratory diagnosis of measles can be done with confirmation of positive measles IgM antibodies or isolation of measles virus RNA from respiratory specimens.

Alternatively, when the capacitor reaches each threshold, the charging source can be switched from the positive power supply to the negative power supply or vice versa.

Alternatively, when the capacitor reaches each threshold, the charging source can be switched from the positive power supply to the negative power supply or vice versa.

Alternatively, if M ( x ) is constant and positive, then the Schrödinger equation can be written in the form

Alternatively, Marsden claimed that god was an invention of the self in its attempt to encompass the world and rule over it, hence, a positive, freeing idea.

Alternatively, it can be interpreted as an inability to see ' government ' as a separate institution -- it is a word used to describe the actions of a large number of individuals subject to the same ( at least qualitatively ) pressures as everyone else.

Alternatively, atomic orbitals refer to functions that depend on the coordinates of one electron ( i. e. orbitals ) but are used as starting points for approximating wave functions that depend on the simultaneous coordinates of all the electrons in an atom or molecule.

Alternatively, in the US Military, two identical tags are issued.

Alternatively, specialised crash / ride and ride / crash cymbals are specifically designed to combine both functions.

Alternatively, electrical engineers are usually concerned with using electricity to transmit energy, while electronic engineers are concerned with using electricity to process information.

Alternatively entropy can be defined from a classical thermodynamics viewpoint, in which the molecular interactions are not considered and instead the system is viewed from perspective of the gross motion of very large masses of molecules and the behavior of individual molecules is averaged and obscured.

Alternatively, it is possible to express an even-length real-input DFT as a complex DFT of half the length ( whose real and imaginary parts are the even / odd elements of the original real data ), followed by O ( N ) post-processing operations.

Alternatively, they can be termed when they are designed for combat as opposed to iaitō training swords.

Alternatively, the clinic may stop dosage at 80 mg, then allow the patient to move up by 5 mg or 10 mg every 2 or 3 days, until they are free from withdrawal symptoms and intense cravings.

Alternatively, the objects are called the first and second coordinates, or the left and right projections of the ordered pair.

Alternatively, the children are allowed to " steal " the afikoman and demand a reward for its return.

Alternatively one could also consider combinations of five cubes that are themselves 3D, i. e., are not part of one layer of cubes.

Alternatively called " torpedo scads ", they are cold-blooded with white flesh.

Alternatively, social commentators who suggest escalating crisis are often called prophets of doom.

Alternatively, in coastal towns cheap fish such as sardines ( sardalya ) or hamsi ( anchovies ) are widely available, as well as many others with seasonal availability.

Alternatively, technological unemployment might refer to the way in which steady increases in labour productivity mean that fewer workers are needed to produce the same level of output every year.

Alternatively, they may be prepared artificially, when they are called liposomes.
