The absence of a strategic bomber force for the Luftwaffe, following General Wever's accidental death in 1936 and the end of the Ural bomber program he fostered before the invasion of Poland, would not be addressed again until the authorization of the Bomber B design competition in July 1939, which sought to replace the medium bomber force with which the Luftwaffe was to begin the war, with more advanced, twin-engined high speed bomber aircraft fitted with pairs of relatively " high-power " engines of 1, 500 kW ( 2, 000 hp ) output levels and upwards each, that would also be able to function as shorter range heavy bombers.

Visible light has a wavelength in the range of about 380 nanometres to about 740 nm – between the invisible infrared, with longer wavelengths and the invisible ultraviolet, with shorter wavelengths.

Neutrinos are affected only by the weak sub-atomic force, of much shorter range than electromagnetism, and gravity, which is relatively weak on the subatomic scale.

6h12m shorter, or + 0. 302d = 7h15m longer than average .< ref > This range is smaller than the difference between mean and true conjunction, because during one lunation the periodic terms cannot all change to their maximum opposite value.

Neutrons are capable of producing an even higher degeneracy pressure, albeit over a shorter range.

It was slower and had shorter range than the conventional G7a, but was wakeless and much cheaper.

Although range finding underwater is performed at both sub-audible and audible frequencies for great distances ( 1 to several kilometers ), ultrasonic range finding is used when distances are shorter and the accuracy of the distance measurement is desired to be finer.

Ultraviolet ( UV ) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays, that is, in the range 10 nm to 400 nm, corresponding to photon energies from 3 eV to 124 eV.

Compared to conventional warfare, nuclear warfare can be vastly more destructive in range and extent of damage, and in a much shorter time scale.

In 1958 the Army felt that existing knowledge was sufficient for work on a guided missile with a HEAT warhead to begin, and in June 1959 Sperry and Ford Aeronutronic were asked for designs to fill the shorter range role.

* Proposed version of AGM-114F with lighter components, shorter airframe, and increased range — not built.

The slime can be propelled up to four centimetres, although accuracy drops with range, which is usually much shorter than this.

The maximum range was over, but effective combat range for many targets was far shorter.

A wide range of Pseudo-Albertine works dealing with alchemy exist, though, showing the belief developed in the generations following Albert's death that he had mastered alchemy, one of the fundamental sciences of the Middle Ages.

In the years leading to 1520 he produced a wide range of works, including the woodblocks for the first western printed star charts in 1515 and portraits in tempera on linen in 1516.

Therefore, it works as a neutron reflector and neutron moderator, effectively slowing the neutrons to the thermal energy range of below 0. 03 eV, where the total cross section is at least an order of magnitude lower – exact value strongly depends on the purity and size of the crystallites in the material.

Both of these are important in regards to the uncertainty surrounding the Beowulf manuscript, as the works which it draws from or influences suggest time-frames of composition, geographic boundaries from which it could be composed, or range ( both spatial and temporal ) of influence ( i. e. when it was " popular " and where its " popularity " took it ).

Bede wrote scientific, historical and theological works, reflecting the range of his writings from music and metrics to exegetical Scripture commentaries.

He was romanticised after his death and became the inspiration for a number of pirate-themed works of fiction across a range of genres.

Her success stems from a wide range of innovative writing and rhetorical techniques that critically challenged renowned male writers, such as Jean de Meun who incorporated misogynist beliefs within their literary works.

Eusebius ' Preparation for the Gospel bears witness to the literary tastes of Origen: Eusebius quotes no comedy, tragedy, or lyric poetry, but makes reference to all the works of Plato and to an extensive range of later philosophic works, largely from Middle Platonists from Philo to the late 2nd century.

The art could range from simple sketches, to reproductions of large elaborate works painted in oil or acrylic, though most are created in ink.

Inlays range from simple plastic dots on the fretboard to intricate works of art covering the entire exterior surface of a guitar ( front and back ).

The Glaswegian poet Edwin Morgan became known for translations of works from a wide range of European languages.

Cocteau acknowledged in the introduction to the script that the play was motivated, in part, by complaints from his actresses that his works were too writer / director-dominated and gave the players little opportunity to show off their full range of talents.

In the 13th century medieval Europe the English bishop Robert Grosseteste wrote on a wide range of scientific topics discussing light from four different perspectives: an epistemology of light, a metaphysics or cosmogony of light, an etiology or physics of light, and a theology of light, basing it on the works Aristotle and Platonism.

Grosseteste's most famous disciple, Roger Bacon, wrote works citing a wide range of recently translated optical and philosophical works, including those of Alhazen, Aristotle, Avicenna, Averroes, Euclid, al-Kindi, Ptolemy, Tideus, and Constantine the African.
