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 you drive greater distances than that, you'll just be skimming the surface and will never discover the enchantment, fascination and beauty which lured you in the first place to explore the hinterlands.

If, however, a layer of paper remains stuck to the surface, the adhesive has not failed.

If there is refraction at a collective spherical surface, or through a thin positive lens, O ' 2 will lie in front of O ' 1 so long as the angle u2 is greater than u1 ( under correction ); and conversely with a dispersive surface or lenses ( over correction ).

If the above errors be eliminated, the two astigmatic surfaces united, and a sharp image obtained with a wide aperture — there remains the necessity to correct the curvature of the image surface, especially when the image is to be received upon a plane surface, e. g. in photography.

If rotation is arrested, the energy stored in fashioning the concave surface must be dissipated, for example through friction, before an equilibrium flat surface is restored.

If a player is unsure of whether a bet is a single or multi-roll bet, it can be noted that all single-roll bets will be displayed on the playing surface in one color ( usually red ), while all multi-roll bets will be displayed in a different color ( usually yellow ).

If the ball has a rough surface, the fluid flowing past it will make it rotate.

where Q is the electric charge transferred through the surface over a time t. If Q and t are measured in coulombs and seconds respectively, I is in amperes.

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

If a particle of the beam crosses this surface, there will be some kind of interaction.

If an organism ( such as bacteria ) attaches to a valve surface and forms a vegetation, the host immune response is blunted.

If we choose the shape of the control volume such that all flow in or out occurs perpendicular to its surface, then the flow of matter into the system performs work as if it were a piston of fluid pushing mass into the system, and the system performs work on the flow of matter out as if it were driving a piston of fluid.

If a previous fresco was being painted over, the surface would be roughened to give a key.

If a solid surface is chilled below the dew point of the surrounding air and the surface itself is colder than freezing, frost will form on the surface.

If the solid surface is rough, and the liquid is in intimate contact with the solid asperities, the droplet is in the Wenzel state.

If the imaging surface is cleaned of contaminants and residual moisture before the second image is taken, then no image of the missing section would appear.

* If creatures similar to plesiosaurs lived in the waters of the Loch Ness, they would be seen very frequently as they would have to surface several times a day to breathe.

If the fluid being measured is significantly dense, hydrostatic corrections may have to be made for the height between the moving surface of the manometer working fluid and the location where the pressure measurement is desired except when measuring differential pressure of a fluid ( for example across an orifice plate or venturi ), in which case the density ρ should be corrected by subtracting the density of the fluid being measured.

If the universe is static and populated by an infinite number of stars, any sight line from Earth must end at the ( very bright ) surface of a star, so the night sky should be completely bright.

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 spheres only appear to rotate ( that is, we are watching stationary spheres from a rotating frame ), the zero tension in the string is accounted for by observing that the centripetal force is supplied by the centrifugal and Coriolis forces in combination, so no tension is needed.

If the spheres really are rotating, the tension observed is exactly the centripetal force required by the circular motion.

If there are p of these parts of the rope supporting the load W, then a force balance on the moving block shows that the tension in each of the parts of the rope must be W / p.

If each mass point has the mass, the tension of the string is, the separation between the mass points is and are the offset of these points from their equilibrium points ( i. e. their position on a straight line between the two attachment points of the string ) the vertical component of the force towards point is

It occurs because of inter-molecular attractive forces between the liquid and solid surrounding surfaces ; If the diameter of the tube is sufficiently small, then the combination of surface tension and forces of adhesion between the liquid and container act to lift the liquid.

If it is untreated, blood flow can be interrupted and cause a drop in blood pressure known as tension pneumothorax.

If a material with high strength in tension, such as steel, is placed in concrete, then the composite material, reinforced concrete, resists not only compression but also bending and other direct tensile actions.

If a wire breaks or tension is otherwise lost, the pulley falls back toward the mast, and one of its teeth will jam against the stop.

If the diameter of the tube is sufficiently small, then the combination of surface tension ( which is caused by cohesion within the liquid ) and adhesive forces between the liquid and container act to lift the liquid.

If left unabated, this tension would eventually grind replication to a halt ( a similar event happens during transcription.

If the object would otherwise float, the tension to restrain it fully submerged is:

If the excess tension of a suture compromises the color of the skin flap, the suture can be loosened, with a skin hook, and observed for 10 – 15 minutes ; if the skin color remains compromised ( white ), the suture is removed.

If stretching fails to ease the condition, and uncomfortable levels of tension remain, a frenuloplasty procedure may be recommended.

If string diameter, tension, mass, uniformity and length compromises were the only factors, then all pianos could be small, spinet-sized instruments.

If stimuli are delivered slow enough, the tension in the muscle will relax between successive twitches.

If it were, then under the tremendous tension of the mainspring, it would require a huge force on the trigger to disengage the sear.

If there is any current or wind, the buoy will drift until tension in the line prevents further movement.

If this is true, then it follows that when the interfacial tension is high, the force of adhesion is weak, since each species does not find it favorable to bond to the other.

If the difference in densities between the two fluids is known, the surface tension or interfacial tension can be calculated by using the pendant drop method.

If the horizontal component of tension in the string is a constant,, then the tension acting on each side of the string segment is given by
