If, in a certain part of the range, it starts life 1 foot longer than do any of the other ( relatively large ) giants, and reaches maturity at, let us guess, 18 inches longer than the others, a quadrupling of the maturity length would result in a maximum of ( nearly ) 40 feet.

If a batter reaches first base because of offensive interference by a preceding runner ( including if a preceding runner is hit by a batted ball ), he is also credited with a hit.

If the score reaches 20-all, then the game continues until one side gains a two point lead ( such as 24 – 22 ), up to a maximum of 30 points ( 30 – 29 is a winning score ).

If any part of the ball reaches any part of the imaginary vertical plane transected by this line while in-bounds and in possession of a player whose team is striving toward that end of the field, this is considered a touchdown and scores six points for the team whose player has advanced the ball to, or recovered the ball in, this position.

If Mental Balance ever reaches + 500 /- 500, the character Awakens and either becomes a divine creature or transforms into a demon.

If the territory included all the tributaries of the Mississippi on its western bank, the northern reaches of the Purchase extended into the equally ill-defined British possession — Rupert's Land of British North America, now part of Canada.

If countN reaches 100, reads from the corresponding channel will be disabled.

If the base current to the transistor is assumed to be zero, the negative feedback forces the transistor to increase its collector-emitter voltage up to 1 V until its base-emitter voltage reaches 0. 625 V ( a typical value for a BJT in the active region ).

If the referee reaches the count of five, and the wrestler still does not break the hold, he is disqualified.

If an object's reference count reaches zero, the object has become inaccessible, and can be destroyed.

If the stress on the tubes reaches a certain limit, they curl up like a rubber band and puncture the Sun's surface.

If a player reaches a losing condition one time, the game does not end ; instead, a life is lost.

If the shutter is part of a lens assembly some other mechanism is required to ensure that no light reaches the film between exposures.

If the determination made by a lower body is overturned, it may be renewed de novo in the review process ( this is usually before it reaches the court system ).

If one waits for equilibrium, osmotic pressure reaches potential osmotic pressure.

If the TTL field reaches zero before the datagram arrives at its destination, then the datagram is discarded and an ICMP error datagram ( 11-Time Exceeded ) is sent back to the sender.

If this food reaches temperatures of 3 ° C to 43 ° C ( 38 ° F to 110 ° F ) it should be assumed to contain Clostridium botulinum multiplying and producing deadly botulin toxin.

If the aging for one of these types of whiskey reaches two years or beyond, the whiskey is then additionally designated as " straight " e. g., " straight rye whiskey ".

If termination is missing, or if there is a break in the cable, the AC signal on the bus is reflected, rather than dissipated when it reaches the end.

If the reference is not explicitly stated then it is normally assumed to be water at 4 ° C ( or, more precisely, 3. 98 ° C, which is the temperature at which water reaches its maximum density ).

If the ball contacts the front wall so low as to bounce twice before it reaches the service line it is called a " kill " shot.

If a message is intended for a computer partway down the line, each system bounces it along in sequence until it reaches the destination.

If correctly selected, it reaches terminal velocity, which can be measured by the time it takes to pass two marks on the tube.

If the temperature reaches the extremely high level of hyperpyrexia, aggressive cooling is required.

If he uses thirty seconds to move, the difference between the clocks reaches one minute, and the time flag falls to indicate that he loses by time.

If he spun out now, he would join his opponent on the ground.

If your pool is located on or near sloping ground, it may have natural drainage which is certainly more desirable than to be faced with the annual expense and labor of first pumping out the water and then scooping out all the debris.

If the platform is not too high off the ground, a transit can be mounted on a stand to raise it up to the platform.

If a circular building is aerodynamically smooth, and cooler than the ground, it can be passively cooled by the " dome effect.

If X and Y are Banach spaces over the same ground field K, the set of all continuous K-linear maps T: X → Y is denoted by B ( X, Y ).

If we take the simple molecular orbital description of the ground state and combine that function with the functions describing all possible excited states using unoccupied orbitals arising from the same set of atomic orbitals, we also reach the full configuration interaction wavefunction.

If the air mass is colder than the ground below it, it is labeled k. If the air mass is warmer than the ground below it, it is labeled w. While air mass identification was originally used in weather forecasting during the 1950s, climatologists began to establish synoptic climatologies based on this idea in 1973.

If however it has already saved its life by self-castration and is again pursued, then it stands up and reveals that it offers no ground for their eager pursuit, and releases the hunters from all further exertions, for they esteem its flesh less.

If not specified, there's no penalty for a disc landing any height above the ground.

If no player is able to legally catch the ball it is an incomplete pass and the ball becomes dead the moment it touches the ground.

If a match is drawn, there is a replay, usually at the ground of the team who were away for the first game.

If a fatwā does not break new ground, then it is simply called a ruling.

If a player contacts the ground inside the goal perimeter he must take the most direct path out of it.

If a ham has been cut into pieces and molded, it must be labelled " sectioned and formed ", or " chunked and formed " if coarsely ground.

If an isomorphism can be found from a relatively unknown part of mathematics into some well studied division of mathematics, where many theorems are already proved, and many methods are already available to find answers, then the function can be used to map whole problems out of unfamiliar territory over to " solid ground " where the problem is easier to understand and work with.

If the cannon fires its ball with a low initial velocity, the trajectory of the ball curves downward and hits the ground ( A ).

If the cannonball is fired with sufficient velocity, the ground curves away from the ball at least as much as the ball falls — so the ball never strikes the ground.

If the inverting input is held at ground ( 0 V ) directly or by a resistor, and the input voltage V < sub > in </ sub > applied to the non-inverting input is positive, the output will be maximum positive ; if V < sub > in </ sub > is negative, the output will be maximum negative.

If light ( photons ) of frequency ν < sub > 12 </ sub > pass through the group of atoms, there is a possibility of the light being absorbed by atoms which are in the ground state, which will cause them to be excited to the higher energy state.

If a collection of atoms are in the excited state, spontaneous decay events to the ground state will occur at a rate proportional to N < sub > 2 </ sub >, the number of atoms in the excited state.

If an atom is already in the excited state, it may be perturbed by the passage of a photon that has a frequency ν < sub > 21 </ sub > corresponding to the energy gap ΔE of the excited state to ground state transition.
