More refined black boxes placed a diode in parallel with the resistor to provide a larger DC pulse to activate the F relay than if only a resistor was used, or replaced the resistor with a 36 V Zener diode which regulated the voltage drop across the telephone to a level where the D relay would not activate, regardless of the length of the local loop.

Let the angle bisector of angle A intersect side BC at a point D. The angle bisector theorem states that the ratio of the length of the line segment BD to the length of segment DC is equal to the ratio of the length of side AB to the length of side AC:

For example, the DC resistance of a conductor depends upon the conductor's length, cross-sectional area, type of material, and temperature.

They may increase their length sixfold and be two-fifths as long as their mother before being born.

And to " measure " is to place a shorter measuring length s successively ( q times ) along longer length l until the remaining portion r is less than the shorter length s. In modern words, remainder r = l − q * s, q being the quotient, or remainder r is the " modulus ", the integer-fractional part left over after the division.

For instance, binary search is said to run in a number of steps proportional to the logarithm of the length of the list being searched, or in O ( log ( n )), colloquially " in logarithmic time ".

The railway line of the Pan-European Corridor Vc, from the Hungarian border via Beli Manastir, Osijek, Đakovo or Vinkovci, Slavonski Šamac, to the Bosnian border, is also being modernised, the aim is to allow speeds of up to 160 km / h along the entire length.

Coyote growth rate is faster than that of wolves, being similar in length to that of the dhole.

Three different catenaries through the same two points, depending horizontal force being and λ mass per unit length.

Choosing a Cartesian coordinate system for a three-dimensional space means choosing an ordered triplet of lines ( axes ), any two of them being perpendicular ; a single unit of length for all three axes ; and an orientation for each axis.

In this sense one speaks of the diameter rather than a diameter, because all diameters of a circle have the same length, this being twice the radius.

* Beira-Lobito Highway: this east-west highway crosses Katanga and requires re-construction over most of its length, being an earth track between the Angolan border and Kolwezi, a paved road in very poor condition between Kolwezi and Lubumbashi, and a paved road in fair condition over the short distance to the Zambian border.

The total length of the line is, being the standard gauge.

In Spanish, singladura is used, but only as a marine unit of length, being the distance covered in 24 hours.

A -> C being the length of the major axis and B -> C the length of the minor axis.

These cause severe spacing problems due to length and these words being used as units ( hence closely associated to the preceding figure ).

Although Schmidt's organ works may resemble others of the era in terms of length, complexity, and difficulty, they are forward-looking in being conceived for the smaller, clearer, classical-style instruments of the Orgelbewegung, which he advocated.

In this case the nut is used only for lateral alignment of the strings, the string height and length being dictated by the zero fret.

The sense of perspective has been created by designing the length of the columns so that those at the far end of the colonnade are much shorter than those in front.

Using the same techniques they calculated the length of the Nile as, which is longer than previous estimates but still shorter than the Amazon.

The astronomer's mean tropical year which is averaged over equinoxes and solstices is currently 365. 24219 days, slightly shorter than the average length of the year in most calendars, but the astronomer's value changes over time, so William Herschel's suggested correction to the Gregorian calendar may become unnecessary by the year 4000.

Since the stored energy in the barrier is less than the energy stored in a barrier-free region of the same length due to destructive interference, the group delay for the energy to escape the barrier region is shorter than it would be in free space, which according to Winful is the explanation for apparently superluminal tunneling.
