( See wave-particle duality ) This time can be calculated by dividing the wavelength of the light by the speed of light ( approximately 3 x 10 < sup > 8 </ sup > m / s ) to determine the time required for light to travel that distance.

The full set of corrections for SU ( 2 ) Yang – Mills theory was calculated by Nathan Seiberg and Edward Witten in Electric – magnetic duality, monopole condensation, and confinement in N = 2 supersymmetric Yang – Mills theory, in the process creating a subject that is today known as Seiberg-Witten theory.

The equinoxes might be expected to be in the middle of their respective seasons, but temperature lag ( caused by the thermal latency of the ground and sea ) means that seasons appear later than dates calculated from a purely astronomical perspective.

It should be noted that calculated fatality rates based on distance for bicycling ( as well as for walking ) can have an exceptionally large margin of error, since there are generally no annual registrations or odometers required for bicycles ( as there are with motor vehicles ), and this means the distance traveled must be estimated.

This means that the reticulocyte count, and the reticulocyte production index that can be calculated from it, can be used to determine whether a production problem is contributing to the anaemia, and can also be used to monitor the progress of treatment for anaemia.

Confidence intervals can be calculated, and so can margins of error, for a range of statistics including individual percentages, differences between percentages, means, medians, and totals.

It would have been well if Kossuth had had something more of Görgey's calculated ruthlessness, for, as has been truly said, the revolutionary power he had seized could only be held by revolutionary means ; but he was by nature soft-hearted and always merciful ; though often audacious, he lacked decision in dealing with men.

Forward kinematic animation can be distinguished from inverse kinematic animation by this means of calculation-in inverse kinematics the orientation of articulated parts is calculated from the desired position of certain points on the model.

We can compare the power of towns of Eastern Greater Poland taking into account so called ' Szos ' - it means global town's tax calculated along earnings and possessions of townspeople.

A less often used term is the absolute ceiling – the highest altitude ( calculated on the ground and which will never be reached in flight except during flight testing ) at which an airplane can sustain level flight, which means the altitude at which the thrust of the engines at full power is equal to the total drag at minimum drag speed.

Once a movement per unit time is observed, astronomers compensate for the parallax caused by the earth ’ s motion during this time and the heliocentric distance to this object is calculated.

A PricewaterhouseCoopers study released in 2009, which surveyed the 2008 GDP of the top cities in the world, calculated Karachi ’ s GDP ( PPP ) to be $ 78 billion ( projected to be $ 193 billion in 2025 at a growth rate of 5. 5 %).

After inspiration from an article on ‘ slope soaring ’ in the Parachute Manual magazine by parachutist & publisher Dan Poynter, they calculated that on a suitable slope, a ‘ square ’ ram-air parachute could be inflated by running down the slope ; Bétemps launched from Pointe du Pertuiset, Mieussy, and flew 100 m.
