The unformatted capacity of the floppy disks was advertised as " 250KB " for SSDD and " 500KB " for DSDD (" KB " ambiguously referring to either 1000 or 1024 bytes ; essentially the same for rounded-off values ), however these " raw " 250 / 500 kB were not the same thing as the usable formatted capacity ; under DOS, the maximum capacity for SSDD and DSDD disks was 180 kB and 360 kB, respectively.

The FOT is normally just below the value of the maximum usable frequency ( MUF ).

In radio transmission maximum usable frequency ( MUF ) is the highest radio frequency that can be used for transmission between two points via reflection from the ionosphere ( skywave or " skip " propagation ) at a specified time, independent of transmitter power.

The maximum usable temperature is highest for alnico magnets at over, around for ferrite and SmCo, about for NIB and lower for flexible ceramics, but the exact numbers depend on the grade of material.

Deposition of lead into the rifling grooves of barrels and into the forcing cones of revolvers limits the maximum usable velocity of wadcutters to less than about 900 ft / s.

For a good quality telescope operating in good atmospheric conditions, the maximum usable magnification is limited by diffraction.

In practice it is widely considered to be 2 × the aperture in millimetres or 50 × the aperture in inches, so a 60mm diameter telescope has a maximum usable magnification of 120 ×.

Without oil immersion, the maximum usable magnification is around 800 ×.

The conflicting design goals for economy cars — small size with maximum usable interior space ; low cost and light weight with acceptable safety performance, light cars have a higher ratio of unsprung suspension mass to sprung mass which affects ride quality, and the need for light materials with acceptable durability, continue to stimulate innovative development.

Strength ( or maximum usable stress ) available to a particular material is not related to its material stiffness ( the material property governing deflection ); it is a separate criterion in curtain wall design and analysis.

Some display devices exhibit different behaviour in horizontal and vertical axis, requiring users and manufacturers to specify maximum usable viewing angles in both directions.

The usable range of bat detectors decreases with humidity and in misty conditions the maximum range can be very low.

Other examples are surface based CAPE ( SBCAPE ), mixed layer or mean layer CAPE ( MLCAPE ), most unstable or maximum usable CAPE ( MUCAPE ), and normalized CAPE ( NCAPE ).

RF amplifiers are often specified in terms of the maximum power gain obtainable, while the voltage gain of audio amplifiers and instrumentation amplifiers will be more often specified ( since the amplifier's input impedance will often be much higher than the source impedance, and the load impedance higher than the amplifier's output impedance ).

If the maximum gain is 0 dB, the 3 dB gain is the range where the gain is more than-3dB, or the attenuation is less than + 3dB.

This is also the range of frequencies where the amplitude gain is above 70. 7 % of the maximum amplitude gain, and above half the maximum power gain.

This same " half power gain " convention is also used in spectral width, and more generally for extent of functions as full width at half maximum ( FWHM ).

If the filter shows amplitude ripple within the passband, the x dB point refers to the point where the gain is x dB below the nominal passband gain rather than x dB below the maximum gain.

In calculations of the maximum symbol rate, the Nyquist sampling rate, and maximum bit rate according to the Hartley formula, the bandwidth refers to the frequency range within which the gain is non-zero, or the gain in dB is below a very large value.

Then, after the pump energy stored in the laser medium has approached the maximum possible level, the introduced loss mechanism ( often an electro-or acousto-optical element ) is rapidly removed ( or that occurs by itself in a passive device ), allowing lasing to begin which rapidly obtains the stored energy in the gain medium.

* Maximum operating frequency: low, medium, high, radio frequency ( RF ), microwave ( The maximum effective frequency of a transistor is denoted by the term, an abbreviation for transition frequency — the frequency of transition is the frequency at which the transistor yields unity gain )

The ratio compares the antenna gain in a specified direction, i. e., azimuth, usually that of maximum gain, to the gain in a direction 180 ° from the specified azimuth.

The maximum loan which SBA may make to any one borrower is $350,000.

The Act further provides for a `` floor '' or minimum allotment, set at the 1954 level, which is called the `` base '' allotment, and a `` ceiling '' or maximum allotment, for each State.

Determine if the particular State's unadjusted allotment ( result obtained in item 11 above ) is greater than its maximum allotment, and if so lower its unadjusted allotment to its maximum allotment.

It is estimated that about 542,250 miles of forest development roads, and 80,000 miles of trails, constitute the system that will eventually be needed to obtain the maximum practicable yield and use of the wood, water, forage, and wildlife and recreation resources of the National Forests on a continuing basis.

The rules and policies to be applied in this process of course must be based on objectives which represent what is to be desired if radio service is to be of maximum use to the Nation.

Without losing the distinctive undertow of Brahmsian rhythm, the pacing is firm and the over-all performance has a tightly knit quality that makes for maximum cumulative effect.

The size of the press is usually expressed in terms of chuck capacity ( the maximum diameter tool shank it will hold ) or distance between the spindle center and the column.

We know now that a 15-degree differential in temperature is the maximum usually desirable, and accurate controls assure the comfort we want.

and that the maximum of the radio emission came about 3-1/2 days after Full Moon, which is again in contrast to the infrared emission, which reaches its maximum at Full Moon.

The maximum angular diameter of any planetary disk as observed from the earth is about 1 minute of arc.

Essentially these birefringence studies show that at low rates of shear a tension is present at 45-degrees to the direction of shear, and as the rate of shear increases, the direction of the maximum tension moves asymptotically toward the direction of shear.

For four of the six ( the anaconda and the amethystine python cannot be included for lack of data ) there is also a correlation between size at maturity and maximum length, the boa constrictor being the smallest and the Indian python the next in size at the former stage.

Until better records have been kept over longer periods of time and much more is known about the maximum dimensions, it will be wise to refrain from drawing conclusions.

The following information on snakes varying greatly in size ( but all with less than a 10-foot maximum ) shows, when considered with the foregoing, that there is probably no correlation between the length of a snake and the time required for it to mature.

He concluded that the anaconda's maximum length is 12 or 13 ( perhaps 14 ) meters, which would approximate from 39 to 42 feet ( 14 meters is slightly less than 46 feet ).

The polyethylene cover reduced the oxygen transfer rate by 10 per cent, indicating that the maximum oxygen transfer is at the rotor rather than through the surface.

The minimum diameter of the pin frame in the collapsed state is 11 inches and the maximum diameter in the freely extended state ( unloaded ) is 14 inches.

The luminous efficiency Af of a photocathode depends on the maximum radiant sensitivity Af and on the spectral distribution of the incident light Af by the relation: Af where Af is normalized radiant photocathode sensitivity.

then the search for the maximum at any one stage will require a number of operations of order Af ( where a is some number not unreasonably large ).

If, however, we are seeking the optimal R-stage policy for a given feed state, only one search for a maximum is required at the final step.
