The American people have indeed come a long way in the brief interval between 1930 and 1961.

In my recollection, there was a long interval between the death of the officer and the appearance of the first of the retreating redcoats, and in that interval the dust cloud over the road seems to hover indefinitely.

All the incidents subsequent to the appeal of Athens to Sparta are expressly referred by Herodotus to the interval between the sending of the heralds in 491 BC and the invasion of Datis and Artaphernes in 490 BC ( cf.

Antiderivatives are related to definite integrals through the fundamental theorem of calculus: the definite integral of a function over an interval is equal to the difference between the values of an antiderivative evaluated at the endpoints of the interval.

Bouts consist of three rounds of three minutes in the Olympic and Commonwealth Games, and three rounds of three minutes in a national ABA ( Amateur Boxing Association ) bout, each with a one-minute interval between rounds.

The length of the interval between two such successive events may be allowed to vary slightly during the year, or it may be averaged into a mean solar day.

A review of all randomized controlled trials in the scientific literature by the Cochrane Collaboration published in JAMA in 2007 found that β-carotene increased mortality by something between 1 and 8 % ( Relative Risk 1. 05, 95 % confidence interval 1. 01-1. 08 ).

The Euler – Maclaurin formula provides expressions for the difference between the sum and the integral in terms of the higher derivatives ƒ < sup >( k )</ sup > at the end points of the interval m and n. Explicitly, for any natural number p, we have

For example, if a newborn baby's heart beats at a frequency of 120 times a minute, its period ( the interval between beats ) is half a second.

If we do not attempt to look back at an event, the greater the interval time between the time when the event from happening and the time when we try to remember, the memory will start to fade.

The time interval between similar lunar phases — the synodic month — averages about 29. 53 days.

Therefore, a degree on the Fahrenheit scale is of the interval between the freezing point and the boiling point.

On October 1, 1962, Groucho, after acting as occasional guest host of The Tonight Show during the six-month interval between Jack Paar and Johnny Carson, introduced Carson as the new host.

In 1343 the interval between Holy Years was reduced by Pope Clement VI to fifty years.

* Induction period-the time interval between the initial cause and the appearance of the first measurable effect

* Space-time interval, the distance between two points in 4-space

The intermediate value theorem states the following: If f is a real-valued continuous function on the interval b, and u is a number between f ( a ) and f ( b ), then there is a c ∈ b such that f ( c ) = u.

It later become clear that the established ten-year interval between revisions was too short.

The open interval ( a, b ) has the same measure, since the difference between the two sets consists only of the end points a and b and has measure zero.

Since relativity postulates that the speed of light is the same for all observers, the Lorentz transformation must preserve the spacetime interval between any two events in Minkowski space.

The interval between the posterior commissure of the labia majora and the anus, from 2. 5 to 3 cm.

In North America, where the interval consists primarily of marine limestones, it was in the past treated as a full-fledged geologic period between the Devonian and the Pennsylvanian.

Jitter refers to the abnormal variation in the time interval between action potentials of adjacent muscle fibers in the same motor unit.

Furthermore, it may be possible to estimate the error due to bias in method ( as distinguished from sampling error ) in each of these sources, on such subjects as fertility, mortality, and migration during a given interval by using information from two largely independent sources in conjunction.

Administered by Li Guoqiao at the Tropical Medicine Institute, the program relies on hybrid Artemisia annua of hybrid ancestry, which was used for a drug regimen by which all residents of the island, whether or not visibly ill, took two doses at a 40-day interval.

Bolzano's proof relied on the method of bisection: the sequence was placed into an interval that was then divided into two equal parts, and a part containing infinitely many terms of the sequence was selected.

One starts by deleting the open middle third (, ) from the interval, leaving two line segments:

A short break interval of 2 minutes occurs after the end of each quarter ( a longer break of 15 minutes at halftime ), and the two teams then change goals.

Data will be lost if, within a single polling interval, two switches are pressed, or a switch is pressed, released, and pressed again.

He then re-calibrated his scale using the melting point of ice and normal human body temperature ( which were at 30 and 90 degrees ); he adjusted the scale so that the melting point of ice would be 32 degrees and body temperature 96 degrees, so that 64 intervals would separate the two, allowing him to mark degree lines on his instruments by simply bisecting the interval six times ( since 64 is 2 to the sixth power ).

There are two theories of temporal logic, the " state and time " approach, and the " time interval " approach ".

Three provisional presidents held office during this interval ; one resigned and the army deposed the other two, Franck Sylvain and Fignolé.

A line integral is defined for functions of two or three variables, and the interval of integration is replaced by a certain curve connecting two points on the plane or in the space.

In practice, LORAN is implemented in integrated regional arrays, or chains, consisting of one primary station and at least two ( but often more ) secondary stations, with a uniform group repetition interval ( GRI ) defined in microseconds.

The combined or Yuzpe regimen uses large doses of both estrogen and progestin, taken as two doses at a 12-hour interval.

Traditionally, the distinction between acute and chronic pain has relied upon an arbitrary interval of time from onset ; the two most commonly used markers being 3 months and 6 months since the onset of pain, though some theorists and researchers have placed the transition from acute to chronic pain at 12 months.

* SBC 11 / 21 ( boardname KXT11 ) Falcon and Falcon Plus — single board computer on a Qbus card implementing the basic PDP-11 instruction set, based on T11 chipset containing 32 KB static RAM, two ROM sockets, three serial lines, 20 bit parallel I / O, three interval timers and a two-channel DMA controller.

By synecdoche the term " Sabbath " in the New Testament may also mean simply a " se ' nnight " or seven-day week, namely, the interval between two Sabbaths.

This theory has a wide range of consequences which have been experimentally verified, including counter-intuitive ones such as length contraction, time dilation and relativity of simultaneity, contradicting the classical notion that the duration of the time interval between two events is equal for all observers.

The unification of space and time is exemplified by the common practice of selecting a metric ( the measure that specifies the interval between two events in spacetime ) such that all four dimensions are measured in terms of units of distance: representing an event as ( in the Lorentz metric ) or ( in the original Minkowski metric ) where is the speed of light.

In spacetime, the separation between two events is measured by the invariant interval between the two events, which takes into account not only the spatial separation between the events, but also their temporal separation.

The interval between two events is defined as:
