If the dielectric for that bit contained a charge, the electrons would be pushed off the dielectric and read as a brief pulse of current in the signal plate.

If a dielectric material does not include light-absorbent additive molecules ( pigments, dyes, colorants ), it is usually transparent to the spectrum of visible light.

If this voltage exceeds the dielectric breakdown strength of the insulating material of the line then an arc will occur.

If the dielectric happens to be a solid, permanent physical and chemical changes along the path of the discharge will significantly reduce the material's dielectric strength, and the device can only be used one time.

If the dielectric is a vacuum or a solid, no flow is produced.

In dielectric materials, the dielectric polarization P depends on the electric field E. If E changes, P ( t ) reacts: the polarization relaxes towards a new equilibrium.

If we remove ourselves for a moment from our time and our infatuation with mental disease, isn't there something absurd about a hero in a novel who is defeated by his infantile neurosis??

If many of the characters in contemporary novels appear to be the bloodless relations of characters in a case history it is because the novelist is often forgetful today that those things that we call character manifest themselves in surface behavior, that the ego is still the executive agency of personality, and that all we know of personality must be discerned through the ego.

If he is a traditionalist, he is an eclectic traditionalist.

If our sincerity is granted, and it is granted, the discrepancy can only be explained by the fact that we have come to believe hearsay and legend about ourselves in preference to an understanding gained by earnest self-examination.

If the superscription of the book of Zephaniah is a reliable indicator of the time that the bulk of the book was composed, then Zephaniah was a contemporary of the prophet Jeremiah ( or Jeremias ).

If the book of Zephaniah was largely composed during the monarchic period, the author of the book of Zephaniah attempts to accomplish this change in behaviour through the threat of future calamity for “ those who have turned back from following the Lord, / who have not sought the Lord or inquired of him ” ( 1: 6 ).

If f: X → Y is a continuous map, x < sub > 0 </ sub > ∈ X and y < sub > 0 </ sub > ∈ Y with f ( x < sub > 0 </ sub >) = y < sub > 0 </ sub >, then every loop in X with base point x < sub > 0 </ sub > can be composed with f to yield a loop in Y with base point y < sub > 0 </ sub >.

If the core of the star is not too massive ( less than approximately 1. 4 solar mass, taking into account mass loss that has occurred by this time ), it may then form a white dwarf ( possibly surrounded by a planetary nebula ) as described above for less massive stars, with the difference that the white dwarf is composed chiefly of oxygen, neon, and magnesium.

If everything is motionless at every instant, and time is entirely composed of instants, then motion is impossible.

She had been composed throughout the trial until this accusation was made, to which she finally answered, " If I have not replied it is because Nature itself refuses to respond to such a charge laid against a mother.

If these confining layers are composed of compressible silt or clay, the loss of water to the aquifer reduces the water pressure in the confining layer, causing it to compress from the weight of overlying geologic materials.
