If, however, the figure to be discerned were complicated, composed of several interlocking subfigures, and so on, even the tracing process failed him, and he could not focus even relatively simple shapes among its parts.

If we consider a process in which the outcome of one stage is known before passage to the next, then the principle of optimality shows that the policy in subsequent stages should be optimal with respect to the outcome of the first.

If T is the total `` length '' of the process, its feed state may be denoted by a vector p(T) and the product state by p(Q).

If economic integration really shapes congregational life, then evangelism should be a process of extending economic integration.

If the church has followed the plan of cultivation of prospects and carried through a program of membership preparation as outlined earlier in this book, the process of assimilation and growth will be well under way.

If the two totals do not agree, an error has been made either in the journals or during the posting process.

If this process is repeated fast enough, the goat will appear to move smoothly to the left.

If the numbers describing the position of the pyramid were changed and this process repeated, the pyramid would appear to move.

:" If I had stated ... the possibility of the introduction or origination of fresh species being a natural, in contradistinction to a miraculous process, I should have raised a host of prejudices against me, which are unfortunately opposed at every step to any philosopher who attempts to address the public on these mysterious subjects ".

If the incongruence is immoderate this process may lead the individual to a state that would typically be described as neurotic.

If this process happens faster than it is naturally quenched by ions recombining, the new ions multiply in successive cycles until the gas breaks down into a plasma and current flows freely in a discharge.

If a rule has as a singleton on its RHS, add a new rule unless has already been removed through this process.

If the sound of the word is emphasized during the encoding process, the cue that should be used should also put emphasis on the phonetic quality of the word.

If this sounds indulgent, it allows simultaneity, absolute space and time and a deterministic universe ( along with decoherence theory ) whilst the status-quo permits time travel / causality paradoxes, subjectivity in the measurement process and multiple universes.

If the pores are filled with water, then the water must be squeezed out of the pores to allow volumetric compression of the soil ; this process is called consolidation.

If all water flow has stopped, the loaded waste valve reopens against the now static head, which allows the process to begin again.

If this process is the source of our feelings about justice, that ought to undermine our confidence in them.

If left untreated, this growth can spread beyond the lung in a process called metastasis into nearby tissue and, eventually, into other parts of the body.

If plasma is pushed hard enough, it generates electric fields which allow it to move in response to the push, often ( not always ) deforming the magnetic field in the process.

If there are more registers, this saving and restoring process takes more time, increasing the latency.

If the Shanghai project is successful, there is interest in replicating the process in other Chinese ports.

If met with ideal conditions on a new planet's surfaces, the bacteria become active and the process of evolution begins.

If the ground state has a higher population than the excited state ( N < sub > 1 </ sub > > N < sub > 2 </ sub >), the process of absorption dominates and there is a net attenuation of photons.

If the higher energy state has a greater population than the lower energy state ( N < sub > 1 </ sub > < N < sub > 2 </ sub >), then the emission process dominates, and light in the system undergoes a net increase in intensity.

If A is the major axis of an ellipsoid and B and C are the other two axes, the radius of curvature in the ab plane at the end of the axis Af, and the difference in pressure along the A and B axes is Af.

If it is assumed that the formula given by Lodge of cosec Af applies, the pressure difference along the major axes can be calculated from the angle of inclination of the major axis, and from this the interfacial tension can be calculated.

If the distant patron of the suburban branch has been frightened away from downtown by traffic problems, however, the city store can only pressure the politicians to do something about the highways or await the completion of the federal highway program.

If the wind blows into the mouth of a tube it causes an increase of pressure on one side of the manometer.

If the pressure in a system remains constant ( isobaric ), a vapor at saturation temperature will begin to condense into its liquid phase as thermal energy ( heat ) is removed.

If the heat of vaporization and the vapor pressure of a liquid at a certain temperature is known, the normal boiling point can be calculated by using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation thus:

If the Bastarnae remained an identifiable group, it is highly likely that they participated in the vast Gothic-led migration, driven by Hunnic pressure, that was admitted into Moesia by emperor Valens in 376 and eventually defeated and killed Valens at Adrianople in 378.

If the glass is damaged, atmospheric pressure can collapse the vacuum tube into dangerous fragments which accelerate inward and then spray at high speed in all directions.

If the core becomes sufficiently dense, electron degeneracy pressure will play a significant part in stabilizing it against gravitational collapse.

If the nominal compression ratio of an engine is given, the pre-ignition cylinder pressure can be estimated using the following relationship:

If a second compression test is performed shortly thereafter, and the new reading is much higher, it would be the ring seal that is problematic, whereas if the compression test pressure observed remains low, it is a valve sealing ( or more rarely head gasket, or breakthrough piston or rarer still cylinder wall damage ) issue.

If light pressure were the cause of the rotation, then the better the vacuum in the bulb, the less air resistance to movement, and the faster the vanes should spin.

If one component changes another component's vapor pressure, or if the volatility of a component is dependent on its percentage in the mixture, the law will fail.

If the difference in vapor pressure between the two components A and B is large ( generally expressed as the difference in boiling points ), the mixture in the beginning of the distillation is highly enriched in component A, and when component A has distilled off, the boiling liquid is enriched in component B.

If the partial pressure of A at x < sub > 1 </ sub > is P < sub > A < sub > 1 </ sub ></ sub > and x < sub > 2 </ sub > is P < sub > A < sub > 2 </ sub ></ sub >, integration of above equation,

If the bullets have to travel a varying distance from the case to the point where they engage the rifling, then this can result in variations in pressure and velocity.

If acceleration can be felt by a body as the force ( hence pressure ) exerted by the object bringing about the acceleration on the body, jerk can be felt as the change in this pressure.

If the air density and temperature are the same above and below a wing, a naive application of the ideal gas law requires that the pressure also be the same.

If the absolute pressure of a fluid stays constant, the gauge pressure of the same fluid will vary as atmospheric pressure changes.
