That is, under most practical circumstances, dissolved gases, vapor pressure, and ( sometimes ) lack of adhesion with tube walls, conspire to render the tensile strength within the liquid ineffective for siphoning.

The degree of improvement of strength depends on adhesion force between fiber and size, size penetration as well as encapsulation of yarn.

As an additional consequence, increasing surface area often does little to enhance the strength of the adhesion in this situation.

The strength of the adhesion between two materials depends on which of the above mechanisms occur between the two materials, and the surface area over which the two materials contact.

While the forces themselves each contribute to the magnitude of the adhesion between the surfaces, the following play a crucial role in the overall strength and reliability of an adhesive device.

This process gives useful ( about 1 to 6 kgf / cm or 10 to 60 N / cm or 5 to 35 lbf / in ) adhesion force, but is much weaker than actual metal-to-metal adhesion strength.

In relativistic contexts, time cannot be separated from the three dimensions of space, because the observed rate at which time passes for an object depends on the object's velocity relative to the observer and also on the strength of gravitational fields, which can slow the passage of time.

If this susceptibility itself depends upon the electric field, one can obtain a nonlinear optical effect of magneto-optical parametric generation ( somewhat analogous to a Pockels effect whose strength is controlled by the applied magnetic field ).

The period of swing of a simple gravity pendulum depends on its length, the local strength of gravity, and to a small extent on the maximum angle that the pendulum swings away from vertical, θ < sub > 0 </ sub >, called the amplitude.

However, there is also the non-linear Kerr effect: the refractive index of a material at a given frequency depends on the light's amplitude or strength.

The strength of hydrogen bonds depends on their environment, thus H-bonds enveloped in a hydrophobic core contribute more than H-bonds exposed to the aqueous environment to the stability of the native state.

The optimal depth depends on factors such as the skater's weight, ability, strength, sporting activity, and ( for ice hockey ) style of play.

The angle of slope that can allow moving snow to accelerate depends on a variety of factors such as the snow's shear strength, which is itself dependent upon crystal form, and the configuration of layers and inter-layer interfaces.

The type of instrument used depends on the strength of the signal and the amount of detail needed.

During the past year, our long-range striking power, unmatched today in manned bombers, has taken on new strength as the Atlas intercontinental ballistic missile has entered the operational inventory.

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.

To achieve this destiny, acts as well as words are needed -- not only acts that lead to physical strength but also acts that lead to strength based on right doing and respect.

Last year the Congress discontinued its previously imposed minimum personnel strength limitations on the Army Reserve.

Similar restrictions on the strength of the Army National Guard contained in the 1960 Department of Defense Appropriation Act should likewise be dropped.

By this standard, it is determined that where two stations operating on the same frequency are involved, objectionable interference from station A exists at any point within the service area of station B where station A's signal is of an intensity one-twentieth or more of the strength of station B's signal at that point.

For added strength, I also fastened a small block on each side of every frame and batten joint.

It is difficult to see any powerful sources of strength on the horizon at this time which would give the economy a new upward thrust.

Jaggers' iron control over her ( `` she would remove her hands from any dish she put before him, hesitatingly, as if she dreaded his calling her back ) '' ) rests on his having once got her acquitted of a murder charge by cleverly contriving her sleeves at the trial to conceal her strength and by passing off the lacerations on the backs of her hands as the scratches of brambles rather than of human fingernails.
