Because some towns in these states operate neither local high schools nor elementary schools, students in these towns " are eligible for a voucher to attend public schools in other towns or non-religious private schools.

* Because the device is never shut off completely there is no " turn on " time, little problem with charge storage, and generally better high frequency performance and feedback loop stability ( and usually fewer high-order harmonics ).

Because subwoofers are generally limited to a bandwidth of no higher than 150 Hz, the switching speed for the amplifier does not have to be as high as for a full range amplifier, and simpler designs could be utilized.

Because of very little jobs available to the teens coming out of eighth grade there was an increase in high school attendance in the 1930s.

Because of their relatively large mass, + 2 electric charge and relatively low velocity, alpha particles are very likely to interact with other atoms and lose their energy, so their forward motion is effectively stopped within a few centimeters of air.

Because of these accidents, the various aviation authorities around the world have created set rules and guidance for those running and participating in air displays.

Because Berlin was located within the Soviet-occupied zone of Germany and the other occupying powers had previously relied on Soviet good will for access to Berlin, the only available methods of supplying the city were three limited air corridors.

Because acids were thought at the time to necessarily contain oxygen, a number of chemists, including Claude Berthollet, suggested that Scheele's dephlogisticated muriatic acid air must be a combination of oxygen and the yet undiscovered element, and Scheele named the supposed new element within this oxide as muriaticum.

Because of the absence of scheduled sea transport between the islands, nearly all interisland passenger traffic is by air.

Because of the air of mystery with which William Aspdin surrounded his product, others ( e. g., Vicat and I. C.

Because the Earth completes only one rotation per day, the Coriolis force is quite small, and its effects generally become noticeable only for motions occurring over large distances and long periods of time, such as large-scale movement of air in the atmosphere or water in the ocean.

Because diesels do not have fuel in the cylinder before combustion is initiated, more than one bar ( 100 kPa ) of air can be loaded in the cylinder without preignition.

Because of the importance of air superiority, since the dawn of aerial combat armed forces have constantly competed to develop technologically superior fighters and to deploy these fighters in greater numbers, and fielding a viable fighter fleet consumes a substantial proportion of the defense budgets of modern armed forces.

Because corned black powder grains made with saltpeter are less affected by moisture in the air, they can be stored unsealed without degradation by humidity.

Because of poorly defined lines of responsibility, administrative conflicts often occur between local and national authorities of Goskompriroda and between Goskompriroda and a second national agency, the Hydrometeorological Administration ( Gidromet ), which is the main monitoring agency for air, water, and soil quality.

Because of its low flame temperature when burnt in free air, the risk is lower should the performer come in contact with the flame.

Because air has viscosity, this layer of air tends to adhere to the wing.

Because Little Boy was an air burst above the ground, there was no bomb crater and no local radioactive fallout.

Because they become very hot, practically all machine guns fire from an open bolt, to permit air cooling from the breech between bursts.

Because dead air does not attract listeners, the station tries to fill its broadcast day with sound.

Because of suggestions ( later proven false ) of Plaisted's use of air transport, some sources classify Herbert's expedition as the first confirmed to reach the North Pole over the ice surface by any means.

Because potassium reacts with water vapor present in the air, it is usually stored under anhydrous mineral oil or kerosene.

Because the knees come up to the chest when the lungs are empty, this technique allows the rower to reach a little bit further than if the lungs were full of air.

Because the spacecraft environment is by definition limited, a very small number of sets can be heavily used, lowering production costs and allowing producers to focus on character development, setting detail, or sometimes simply to keep a production in the black so it can stay on the air.
