Because of their comparatively fast response time, in the early development of television neon lamps were used as the light source in many mechanical-scan TV displays.

Because they lack leading and trailing wheels, locomotives of this type have all their weight pressing down on their driving wheels and consequently have a high tractive effort and factor of adhesion, making them comparatively strong engines for their size, weight and fuel consumption.

Because of its comparatively wide reach, the station often referred to itself as " WBZ, New England " as opposed to associating itself solely with Springfield or Boston.

Because until comparatively recently most Galicians lived in many small towns and villages in a remote and mountainous land, the language changed very slowly and was only very slightly influenced from outside the region.

Because gravity is comparatively weak compared to other fundamental forces, gravitational collapse is usually associated with very massive bodies or collections of bodies, such as stars ( including collapsed stars such as supernovae, neutron stars and black holes ) and massive collections of stars such as globular clusters and galaxies.

Because of the comparatively small size of the pitch at White Hart Lane, special dispensation had to be applied for to use a shortened field and it was granted: the pitch at White Hart Lane measured 93 yards.

Because the state and foreigners owned much of Russia's industry, the working class was comparatively stronger and the bourgeoisie comparatively weaker than in the West.

Because of its high strength and comparatively much higher fracture toughness, sintered zirconium-oxide can be used in virtually every full ceramic prosthetic solution, including bridges, implant supra structures and root dowel pins.

Because of the unreliability of its UK diesel and electric locomotives, all were withdrawn after comparatively short lifespans.

Because of the huge amount of seasonings, the unpleasant odour of the stinky tofu shashlik is comparatively weaker.

Because it passes through this thicker glans tissue rather than the comparatively thinner membrane between the urethra and the underside of the penis, healing time is substantially longer than the standard Prince Albert piercing.

Because of the comparatively easy topography and the dense population, the transport network is highly developed.

Because of weak bonding between the layers, gray arsenic is brittle and has a relatively low Mohs hardness of 3. 5.

Because of the weak international position and its labor policies ( most peasants lived through a subsistence economy ), Pétion's government was perpetually on the brink of bankruptcy.

Because of the weak, induced dipole-dipole interaction between helium atoms, their macroscopic physical properties are mainly determined by their zero point energy (" ground state kinetic energy ").

Because sIBM makes the leg muscles weak and unstable, patients are very vulnerable to serious injury from tripping or falling down.

Because standard shuffling techniques are seen as weak, and in order to avoid " inside jobs " where employees collaborate with gamblers by performing inadequate shuffles, many casinos employ automatic shuffling machines.

Because the weak interaction can transform elementary particles from one kind into another, the ToE should also yield a deep understanding of the various different kinds of possible particles.

Because WIMPs may only interact through gravitational and weak forces, they are extremely difficult to detect.

Because they lack characteristics believed to be present in the common ancestor of other known eutherian mammals, some weak morphological evidence suggests that the Xenarthra are outside the Epitheria, which contains all other known eutherians today.

Because of Lebanon's weak central government, the PLO was able to operate virtually as an independent state.

Because they are wind pollinated and they have weak internal barriers to hybridization, hybridization produces functional seeds and fertile hybrid offspring.

" Because the political institutions were so weak people looked to other outlets.

Because of his weak heart and his excellent handwriting, Schiele was eventually given a job as a clerk in a POW camp near the town of Mühling.

Because gases are expelled but not admitted this creates a slight vacuum in the crankcase so that any weak joint or failed seal causes air to be sucked in rather than allowing oil to leak out.

Because the cyclone affected the islands as a weak tropical storm, preparations were minimal.

* Because the gate was structurally weak, it was reinforced with a tie-beam, and what is today called or ( see illustration at left ) was born.

Because of the non-local nature of non-bonded interactions, they involve at least weak interactions between all particles in the system.

Because both the Chinese room argument and the construction of social reality deal with Searle and his debates, and because they both use weak and strong to denote a philosophical position, and because both debate the programmability of " the other ", it is worth noting the correspondence that " strong AI " is strong social constructionism, and " weak AI " is weak social constructivism.

Because these particles only interact with the weak vector bosons, they are not directly produced at hadron colliders in copious numbers.

Because the weak interactions violate parity, collider processes that can involve the weak interactions typically exhibit asymmetries in the distributions of the final-state particles.

Because of the very weak interatomic forces in helium, this element would remain a liquid at atmospheric pressure all the way from its liquefaction point down to absolute zero ( an unreachably-low temperature ).

Because neither neutrinos nor electrons are affected by the strong force – because neutrinos are electrically neutral, and because the incredibly small masses of these particles makes negligible any gravitational force between them – such an interaction can only happen via the weak force.
