If the volume is the molal volume, then Af is obtained on a molal basis which is the customary terminology of the chemists.

If you are going to farm for extra cash income on a part-time basis you must keep in mind the needed machinery investments when you choose among farm enterprises.

If we use a cylindrical coordinate system with basis vectors, then the gradient of and the divergence of are given by

If is an outward pointing in-plane normal, whereas is the unit vector perpendicular to the plane ( see caption at right ), then the orientation of C is chosen so that a tangent vector to C is positively oriented if and only if forms a positively oriented basis for R < sup > 3 </ sup > ( right-hand rule ).

If V is finite-dimensional, then V * has the same dimension as V. Given a basis

If the matrix entries are real numbers, the matrix can be used to represent two linear mappings: one that maps the standard basis vectors to the rows of, and one that maps them to the columns of.

If his son were guilty, he would still believe him innocent, on the basis of faith in his son ; this would violate the third subjunctive condition.

If " hate speech " is taken to mean ethnic agitation, it is prohibited in Finland and defined in the section 11 of the penal code, War crimes and crimes against humanity, as publishing data, an opinion or other statement that threatens or insults a group on basis of race, nationality, ethnicity, religion or conviction, sexual orientation, disability, or any comparable basis.

If we should say that no one could possibly know whether water exists a priori, it seems either we cannot know content externalism to be true on the basis of thought experiments or we cannot know what we are thinking without first looking into the world to see what it is like.

If it lapses, the legal basis for enforcing discipline disappears, and soldiers lose their legal indemnity for acts committed under orders.

" If, in turn, the speaker responds positively to the idea of giving to the poor, then some aspect of that idea must have inspired a positive response ; one could argue that that aspect is also the basis of its goodness.

If the former occurs, then any subsequent measurement performed by Bob, in the same basis, will always return 1.

If an index transforms like a vector with the inverse of the basis transformation, it is called contravariant and is traditionally denoted with an upper index, while an index that transforms with the basis transformation itself is called covariant and is denoted with a lower index.

If the employee made after-tax contributions to the non-Roth 401k account, these amounts are commingled with the pre-tax funds and simply add to the non-Roth 401 ( k ) basis.

If we fail to justify simplicity considerations on the basis of the context in which we make use of them, we may have no non-circular justification: " just as the question ' why be rational?

Humphry Davy, an English chemist was among the first to expound on the chemical basis of soil fertility and wrote in 1813: “ If land be unproductive, and a system of ameliorating it is to be attempted, the sure method of obtaining the object is to determine the cause of the sterility, which must necessarily depend upon some defect in the constitution of the soil, which may be easily discovered by chemical analysis .” His ideas were not immediately accepted.

If basis vectors are defined such that

If Naburimannu was the originator of System A, then we can on that basis place him in Babylonia sometime between the Persian and Macedonian conquests.

* If R is a Noetherian ring, then R is Noetherian by the Hilbert basis theorem.
