If the dance teachers of America make it their business to prepare their young charges for the gymnastics that must come some day if our schools are really responsible, we will be that much ahead.

If this happens, there may be some class conflict in the South, with school boards and school teachers taking the middle-class position.

If this threefold division of costs were to have its counterpart in the actual rates of charge for service, as it actually does have in some rates, there would result a three-part rate for any one class of service.

If the photographically realistic continuity of dreams, however bizarre their combinations, denies that it is purely a composition of the brain, it must be compounded from views of diverse realities, although some of them may never be encountered in what we are pleased to call the real life.

If Depew had told any academic psychologist that he had a weird feeling of having lived through that identical convention session at some time in the past, he would have been informed that he was a victim of deja vue.

If you draw the short straw I'll lend you some bread, like fifty bucks, before I take off to visit my sister in Frisco.

If a substitute mechanism is needed for the control of a fictitious impersonal market, quite obviously some method must be devised for representing the public interest.

There are some passages in the writings of Irenaeus where the image of God and the similitude are sharply distinguished, so most notably in the statement: `` If the ( Holy ) Spirit is absent from the soul, such a man is indeed of an animal nature ; ;

I kept saying, `` If I could just build up a reputation for myself, make some real money, get to be well known as an illustrator -- like Peter Askington, for instance -- then I could take some time off and paint ''.

If she and Pete were really getting serious, I'd have to do some hard thinking.

If elements in the sample space increase arithmetically, when placed in some order, then the median and arithmetic average are equal.

If F is algebraically closed and p ( x ) is an irreducible polynomial of F, then it has some root a and therefore p ( x ) is a multiple of x − a.

If he condemns the recent or the present, he condemns the past with no less force.

If the Dominican Republic achieves free, democratic government, it will be due in large part to the U.S. show of force that enabled President Balaguer to prevent a threatened restoration of Trujillo dictatorship.

If they also defeat the school bill, the GOP task force won't have much research to do.

If we fail to develop the means to hunt down and destroy the enemy's military force with extreme care and precision, and if war comes in spite of our most ardent desires for peace, our choice of alternatives will be truly frightening.

If the force required to remove the coatings is plotted against film thickness, a graph as illustrated schematically in Fig. 5 may characteristically result.

If the cutting force, Af, is plotted against film thickness, a straight line should result passing through the origin and having slope Af.

If under the existing system he could not assemble forces quickly enough to intercept mobile Viking raiders, the obvious answer was to have a standing field force.

If the net force on some body is directed always toward some fixed point, the center, then there is no torque on the body with respect to the center, and so the angular momentum of the body about the center is constant.

" ... To this he said: " If that is so you will one day be a force.

If you cannot change your own life, it must be that some greater force controls the world.

* Overrunning clutch or freewheel: If some external force makes the driven member rotate faster than the driver, the clutch effectively disengages.

If the column load is gradually increased, a condition is reached in which the straight form of equilibrium becomes so-called neutral equilibrium, and a small lateral force will produce a deflection that does not disappear and the column remains in this slightly bent form when the lateral force is removed.

If the missile starts to roll, the gyroscopic force of the disk drives the control surface into the airflow, cancelling the motion.

If objects are seen as moving within a rotating frame, this movement results in another fictitious force, the Coriolis force ; and if the rate of rotation of the frame is changing, a third fictitious force, the Euler force is experienced.

If this acceleration is multiplied by the particle mass, the leading term is the centripetal force and the negative of the second term related to angular acceleration is sometimes called the Euler force.

LINE SIX: RAF, If in the royal Air force.

If a similar ball is charged by the same glass rod, it is found to repel the first: the charge acts to force the two balls apart.

If one asks an expert for the rules he or she is using, one will, in effect, force the expert to regress to the level of a beginner and state the rules learned in school.

If it exists, the graviton is expected to be massless ( because the gravitational force appears to have unlimited range ) and must be a spin 2 boson.

If we live on a brane ( as hypothesized by some theorists ) this " leakage " of gravitons from the brane into higher-dimensional space could explain why gravitation is such a weak force, and gravitons from other branes adjacent to our own could provide a potential explanation for dark matter.
