So, this makes an additional calculation necessary on top of the normal calculation for January 1 and the calculation of whether or not the year is a leap year.

The complexity of these interactions makes the calculation of friction from first principles impossible and necessitates the use of empirical methods for analysis and the development of theory.

The assumption of conservation of momentum as well as the conservation of kinetic energy makes possible the calculation of the final velocities in two-body collisions.

The introduction of entropy makes it harder to determine by calculation alone whether a substance will dissolve or not.

Sometimes, for manual calculation, the continuously-compounded hypothesis is a close-enough approximation of the daily-compounding hypothesis, and makes calculation easier ( even though it does not have any real application as no financial instrument is continuously compounded ).

It is necessary to integrate over the total volume of the object, which makes the calculation dependent on the objects ' shapes.

Since the calendar uses astronomical calculation for determining the vernal equinox, it has no intrinsic error, but this makes it an observation based calendar.

This makes the calculation using the Legendre symbol significantly slower than the one using the Jacobi symbol, as there is no known polynomial-time algorithm for factoring integers .< ref > The number field sieve, the fastest known algorithm, requires operations to factor N. See Cohen, p. 495 </ ref > In fact, this is why Jacobi introduced the symbol.

The calculation makes use of the notion of dynamical horizon and is done for non-extremal black holes.

The multinomial probit model has as a disadvantage that it makes calculation of maximum likelihood infeasible for more than five alternatives as it involves multiple integrals.

The calculation makes use of the notion of dynamical horizon and is done for non-extremal black holes.

Next, one makes a calculation to compute the present value of the future cash flows.

" Caiaphas makes a political calculation, suggesting that it would be better for " one man " ( Jesus ) to die than for " the whole nation " to be destroyed.

This provides a useful check on the results: where the complexity of a precise calculation might obscure a large error, the simplicity of Fermi calculations makes them far less susceptible to such mistakes.

It aims to analyse all actions based on monetary calculation and trace the formation of prices back to the point where an agent makes his or her choices.

Smith makes clear that we should take very good care to not act on the passions of anger, hatred, resentment, for purely social reasons, and instead imagine what the impartial spectator would deem appropriate, and base our action solely on a cold calculation.

+ 2. 9 % ); however, the 15. 3 % multiplier is applied to 92. 35 % of the business's net earnings from self-employment, rather than 100 % of the gross earnings ; the difference, 7. 65 %, is half of the 15. 3 %, and makes the calculation fair in comparison to that of regular ( non-self-employed ) employees.

In other words, it makes the calculation fair because employees don't get taxed on their employers ' contribution of the second half of FICA, therefore self-employed people shouldn't get taxed on the second half of the self-employment tax.

This makes up for dropping 0. 5 in the next digit's calculation.

This affects our choice of the contour C. Normally the logarithm branch cut is defined as the negative real axis, however, this makes the calculation of the integral slightly more complicated, so we define it to be the positive real axis.

By a later calculation of incomplete records his record stands at 530 wins in 1, 538 rides, which still makes his win rate 34 %.

The use of the soroban is still taught in Japanese primary schools as part of mathematics, primarily as an aid to faster mental calculation.

Sacrifice bunts ( sacrifice hits since 1954 ), which would lower a batter's on-base percentage, are not included in the calculation for on-base percentage, as bunting is an offensive strategy – often dictated by the manager – the use of which does not necessarily reflect on the batter's ability and should not be used to penalize him.

Computation is any type of calculation or use of computing technology in information processing.

In 1818 Gauss, putting his calculation skills to practical use, carried out a geodesic survey of the Kingdom of Hanover, linking up with previous Danish surveys.

Church subsequently modified his methods to include use of Herbrand – Gödel recursion and then proved ( 1936 ) that the Entscheidungsproblem is unsolvable: There is no generalized " effective calculation " ( method, algorithm ) that can determine whether or not a formula in either the recursive-or λ-calculus is " valid " ( more precisely: no method to show that a well formed formula has a " normal form ").

The use of money as a medium of exchange and unit of account is necessary to solve the first two problems of economic calculation.

These first elements of the Calculation Critique of Socialism are the most basic element: economic calculation requires the use of money across all goods.

To sum things up, the use of money in trading all goods ( capital / labor and consumer ) in all markets ( spot and financial ) combined with profit driven entrepreneurship and Darwinian natural selection in financial markets all combine to make rational economic calculation and allocation the outcome of the capitalist process.

Paul Cockshott and Allin Cottrell in Towards a New Socialism, Information and Economics: A Critique of Hayek, and Against Mises have argued that the use of computational technology now simplifies economic calculation and allows central planning to be implemented and sustained.

However, if the business has a small number of extensions, then it should instead use the more exact Engset calculation, which reflects the fact that extensions already in use will not make additional simultaneous calls.

The calculation of probability amplitudes in theoretical particle physics requires the use of rather large and complicated integrals over a large number of variables.

This argument, first proposed by Max Weber, says that the efficient exchange and use of resources can be maintained only through the price mechanism in free markets ( see economic calculation problem ).

Strategic missile systems are thought to use custom integrated circuits designed to calculate navigational differential equations thousands to millions of times per second in order to reduce navigational errors caused by calculation alone.

The initial clock rate of the 80186 was 6 MHz, but due to more hardware available for the microcode to use, especially for address calculation, many individual instructions ran faster than on an 8086 at the same clock frequency.

Furthermore, Copernicus continued to use as a point of reference the center of the earth's orbit rather than that of the sun, as he says, " as an aid to calculation and in order not to confuse the reader by diverging too much from Ptolemy.

To predict if this method would be possible, they made use of a rough calculation.

Professional divers use such a calculation only as a rough guide to give new divers a metaphor, comparing a situation they may be more familiar with.

If the error rate is small enough, it is thought to be possible to use quantum error correction, which corrects errors due to decoherence, thereby allowing the total calculation time to be longer than the decoherence time.

* The calculation of the Chinese calendar begins to use true motions of the sun and moon modeled using two offset opposing parabolas.

For the calculation of ephemerides, TDB was officially recommended to replace ET, but deficiencies were found in the definition of TDB ( though not affecting T < sub > eph </ sub >), and these led to the IAU defining and recommending further time scales, Barycentric Coordinate Time ( TCB ) for use in the solar system as a whole, and Geocentric Coordinate Time ( TCG ) for use in the vicinity of the Earth.

If, for example, the capital required for Project A can earn 5 % elsewhere, use this discount rate in the NPV calculation to allow a direct comparison to be made between Project A and the alternative.
