The proposed change would define 1 A as being the current in the direction of flow of a particular number of elementary charges per second.

These results refined Ernest Rutherford's and Antonius Van den Broek's model, which proposed that the atom contains in its nucleus a number of positive nuclear charges that is equal to its ( atomic ) number in the periodic table.

That theory refined Ernest Rutherford's and Antonius Van den Broek's model, which proposed that the atom contains in its nucleus a number of positive nuclear charges that is equal to its ( atomic ) number in the periodic table.

Furthermore, as noted by Bohr, Moseley's law provided a reasonably complete experimental set of data that supported the ( new from 1911 ) conception by Ernest Rutherford and Antonius Van den Broek of the atom, with a positively-charged nucleus surrounded by negatively-charged electrons in which the atomic number is understood to be the exact physical number of positive charges ( later discovered and called protons ) in the central atomic nuclei of the elements.

Toll-free calls are paid for by the recipient ( the calling card company ), which passes on the cost through higher call charges ; total cost of a call to the user is often lower using a local number.

An atom holding one or more electrical charges is enclosed in brackets, followed by the symbol H if it is bonded to one or more atoms of hydrogen, followed by the number of hydrogen atoms ( as usual one is omitted example: NH4 for ammonium ), then by the sign '+' for a positive charge or by '-' for a negative charge.

Silt, with its higher specific surface area, is more chemically active than sand, but the clay content, with its very high specific surface area and generally large number of negative charges, gives clay its great retention capacity for nutrients and water.

Phibun and a number of his associates were put on trial on charges of having committed war crimes and of collaborating with the Axis powers.

The charges were rejected by the courts, but a publicity ban was imposed for a number of years.

* The magnitude of the electrical charge of one mole of elementary charges ( approximately 6. 022, or Avogadro's number ) is known as a faraday unit of charge ( closely related to the Faraday constant ).

In terms of Avogadro's number ( N < sub > A </ sub >), one coulomb is equal to approximately 1. 036 × N < sub > A </ sub > elementary charges.

The elementary charge, the charge of a proton ( equivalently, the negative of the charge of an electron ), is approximately .< ref name = CODATA > The inverse value ( the number of elementary charges in 1C ) is given by 1 / = 6. 24150965 ( 16 )× 10 < sup > 18 </ sup >.</ ref > In SI, the elementary charge in coulombs is an approximate value: no experiment can be infinitely accurate.

It is possible to call with charges reversed by first dialing a number in Arizona ; the call is charged to the receiver at the standard rate for satellite to landline calls, but the caller only pays for the call to Arizona.

Only a limited number of persons were rehabilitated with the formulation " cleared of all charges ".

According to International Advocates for Justice, Falun Gong has filed the largest number of human rights lawsuits in the 21st century and the charges are among the most severe international crimes defined by international criminal laws.

The pope arrived only to discover a number of other charges, including unchastity and the misuse of church property, would also be brought against him.

The PAP has held an overwhelming majority of seats in the Parliament of Singapore since 1966, when the opposition Barisan Sosialis ( Socialist Front ), a left-wing group that split from PAP in 1961, resigned from Parliament after winning 13 seats following the 1963 state elections, which took place months after a number of their leaders had been arrested in Operation Coldstore based on charges of being communists.

Thirty seconds later, engineers detonated the mine charges laid under no man's land and the German trench line, destroying a number of German strong points and creating secure communication trenches directly across no man's land.

It is one of the ironic quirks of history that the viability and usefulness of nationalism and the territorial state are rapidly dissipating at precisely the time that the nation-state attained its highest number ( approximately 100 ).

It is worth dwelling in some detail on the crisis of this story, because it brings together a number of characteristic elements and makes of them a curious, riddling compound obscurely but centrally significant for Mann's work.

The cyclist, a sufficiently commonplace young fellow, is not named but identified simply as `` Life '' -- that and a license number, which Piepsam uses in addressing him.

Presumably a cocktail party is expected to fulfill the host's desire to get together a number of people who are inadequately acquainted and thereby arrange for bringing the level of acquaintance up to adequacy for future cooperative endeavors.

The number of primitive ideas in systematically-simple theories is reduced to a minimum.

I assume that the number of readers of this anthology who regard themselves as morally perfect is small, and that most readers are willing to consider procedures by which they may gain more insight into themselves and better understanding of others.

That is how the real routine of resistance goes on, and its strength is directly proportionate to the number of insignificant people who can let themselves be taken to pieces, piece by piece, without quitting.

Although the United States and the U.S.S.R. have been arguing whether there shall be four, five or six top assistants, the most important element in the situation is not the number of deputies but the manner in which these deputies are to do their work.

There are a number of other considerations besides this one but it is for the Congress, not the Department of Justice, to balance these various considerations and make a judgment about legislation.

Nonetheless, although few in number they are a stubborn crew, as tenacious of life as the Hardshell Baptists, which suggests that there is some kind of vital principle embodied in their faith.

For that is the one an increasingly large number of prominent Americans are now proposing.

and it is still very far from certain how valid the party's claim is that in `` a growing number of kolkhozes '' the peasants are finding it more profitable, to surrender their private plots to the kolkhoz and to let the latter be turned into something increasingly like a state farm.

Too bad your number is in the directory ''.

The number of countries thus favorably situated is small, but their peoples constitute over half of the population of the underdeveloped world.

The resulting setup, it was declared, `` would be similar to that which is in successful operation in a number of metropolitan counties as large or larger than Rhode Island ''.

The Navy, on April 25, announced it is bringing back the carrier Shangri-La from the Mediterranean, increasing to four the number of attack carriers in the vicinity of Cuba.

There is little doubt that the number of those who wish to serve will be far greater than our capacity to absorb them.

Since broadcast frequencies are very limited in number, these objectives are to some extent inconsistent in that not all of them can be fully realized, and to the extent that each is realized, there is a corresponding reduction of the possibilities for fullest achievement of the others.

During nighttime hours, because of the intense skywave propagation then prevailing, no large number of stations can be permitted to operate on one of these channels, if the wide area service for which these frequencies are assigned is to be rendered satisfactorily by the dominant stations which must be relied upon to render it.

In the daytime, on the other hand, since skywave transmission is relatively inefficient, it is possible to assign a substantially larger number of stations on these channels.

Such additional daytime class 2, assignments are appropriate if optimum use is to be made of these frequencies, and the Commission has over the years made a large number of them.
