* Belief that an event is " due " to happen: For example, " The roulette wheel has landed on red in three consecutive spins.

For example, in creating a relatively simple program to sort a list of words into alphabetical order, one's design might fail to consider what should happen when a word contains a hyphen.

For example, 1 ) The initial conditions that amount to an accident waiting to happen 2 ) What disturbed the set-up to get an event into progress 3 ) The additional developments that occurred to result in the final situation, 4 ) The final situation.

For the probability that a certain event will happen, one sums the probability amplitudes for all of the possible ways in which the event can occur, and then takes the square of the length of the result.

For instance, a convection oven works by forced convection, as a fan which rapidly circulates hot air forces heat into food faster than would naturally happen due to simple heating without the fan.

For instance, some dreams are warnings of something about to happen — e. g. a dream of failing an examination, if one is a student, may be a literal warning of unpreparedness.

) For a mirage to happen, the temperature gradient has to be much greater than that.

For Z > Z < sub > cr </ sub >, if the innermost orbital ( 1s ) is not filled, the electric field of the nucleus will pull an electron out of the vacuum, resulting in the spontaneous emission of a positron ; however, this does not happen if the innermost orbital is filled, so that Z

For this to happen, it is overwhelmingly likely that both of his parents possessed the same eye colour.

For example, odds of " 7 to 3 against " ( 7: 3 ) mean that there are seven chances that the event will not happen to every three chances that it will happen.

For that to happen, however, both provisional ballots would have to be certified as valid votes, and both would have to go to Akins.

For example, in the film, the fail-safe procedures designed to prevent a nuclear war are precisely the systems that ensure that it will happen.

For this to happen, the marginal propensity to save needs to be strictly positive.

For example, he tells Buddy Baker that the next writer could have him eating meat ( which in fact did happen, in a bizarre set of circumstances ), and Buddy says, " But I don't eat meat ," to which Morrison retorts, " No, I don't eat meat.

For a woman to conceive, certain things have to happen: intercourse must take place around the time when an egg is released from her ovary ; the systems that produce eggs and sperm have to be working at optimum levels ; and her hormones must be balanced.

For this to happen, the water body must enter a restricted environment where water input into this environment remains below the net rate of evaporation.

For example, if the drug has always been administered in the same room, the stimuli provided by that room may produce a conditioned compensatory effect ; then an overdose reaction may happen if the drug is administered in a different location where the conditioned stimuli are absent.

For instance, the beta decay of a neutron can happen through the emission of a single virtual, negatively charged W particle that almost immediately decays into a real electron and antineutrino ; the neutron turns into a proton when it emits the W particle.

For this to happen, the strategic position model of Bahia in the international tourism route was fundamental, with direct and regular flights to Europe, the United States, and the Southern Cone, due to the complementary governmental and private initiatives, besides the development of new tourist poles integrated to the local culture.

For the non-Pathēt Lao elements in the government, compromise seemed better than allowing what had happened in Cambodia and South Vietnam to happen in Laos.

For maintaining correctness in cases of failed ( aborted ) transactions ( which can always happen for many reasons ) schedules also need to have the recoverability ( from abort ) property.

It may happen that a continuous function f is differentiable almost everywhere on, its derivative f ′ is Lebesgue integrable, and nevertheless the integral of f ′ differs from the increment of f. For example, this happens for the Cantor function, which means that this function is not absolutely continuous.

For example, the outcomes 1 and 4 of a single roll of a six-sided die are mutually exclusive ( cannot both happen ) but not collectively exhaustive ( there are other possible outcomes ; 2, 3, 5, 6 ).

For example, ITU-R BT. 656 and SMPTE 259M define digital video interfaces used for broadcast-grade video.

For example, CFQC-TV in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan preceded each nightly newscast with " Color Check ", which began with the SMPTE color bars as an announcer identified the colors of the vertical bars encouraging viewers to adjust their TV color settings to make sure the colors were " well separated " and matched the description, after which a photograph ( later video footage ) of a woman's face was broadcast for a few moments, allowing viewers to adjust their TV color settings further.

* 1983 — SMPTE Progress Medal For his contributions to theater sound and his continuing work in noise reduction and quality improvements in audio and video systems and as a prime inventor of the videotape recorder

* SMPTE Progress Medal awarded by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers ( SMPTE ), 2004, For the central role played in research and development of audio and video recording products .< ref name = smpte >

For productions where lighting and sound are operated by a single person, as well productions where sound needs to be exactly timed with lighting, it is not unusual to use Midi Show Control ( MSC ) or Timecode ( SMPTE Time Code ) to synchronize the lighting and audio consoles.

For ten years, the Metropolitan Transportation Commition ( MTC ) and the Bay Area Toll authority tried to make the shoulder a regular lane of traffic and a bike lane.

For a long transmission line, the lower losses and reduced construction cost of a DC line can offset the additional cost of converter stations at each end.

For battery-operated devices, this voltage must be generated by a converter circuit within the device ; this converter often makes an audible whine or siren sound while the backlight is activated.

For about a century, some variable-speed electric motors have had decent efficiency, but they were somewhat more complex than constant-speed motors, and sometimes required bulky external electrical apparatus, such as a bank of variable power resistors or rotating converter such as Ward Leonard drive.

For example the pentagrid converter has two.

For other distortion mechanisms created in the digital-to-analog converter see the corresponding section in the direct-digital synthesizer article.

For 2004, Ford altered the transmission, revised the torque converter for better acceleration, and updated the layout of the optional overhead console.

For compression-ignition ( i. e., diesel engines ), the most commonly used catalytic converter is the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst ( DOC ).

For a Diesel-hydraulic locomotive, the starting tractive effort is affected by the stall torque of the torque converter, as well as gearing, wheel diameter and locomotive weight.

For example, the Buick Dynaflow automatic transmission was a non-shifting design and, under normal conditions, relied solely upon the converter to multiply torque.

For this reason, the characteristics of the torque converter must be carefully matched to the torque curve of the power source and the intended application.

For two weeks after that, it broadcast a " nightlight " service in the form of a continuously repeating short program about installing digital television converter boxes, alternating between English and Spanish versions, before finally shutting down its analog signal completely.

For instance, to implement a 24-bit converter, it is sufficient to use a 20-bit converter that can run at 256 times the target sampling rate.

For the service, viewers had to pay for a set top converter and subscription fees to watch their favorite sports teams.
