* However, a larger 35ml measure is increasingly used ( and in particular is standard in Northern Ireland ), which contains 1. 4 units of alcohol.

Some signals carry encryption and specify use conditions ( such as " may not be recorded " or " may not be viewed on displays larger than 1 m in diagonal measure ") backed up with the force of law under the WIPO Copyright Treaty and national legislation implementing it, such as the U. S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

So in some sense it provides a measure of how far the group is from being abelian ; the larger the commutator subgroup is, the " less abelian " the group is.

Gray whales measure from in length for newborns to for adults ( females tend to be slightly larger than adult males ).

The least weasel is not much larger than a mouse, while the giant otter can measure up to in length and sea otters can exceed.

A very simple example: a photosensor might passively measure the incident light and discharge its absorbed energy as electricity when the light passes above or below a specified threshold, sending a signal to a larger machine.

The periods of all terms larger than 0. 0001 ″ ( about as accurately as one can measure ) lie between 5. 5 and 6798 days ; for some reason they seem to avoid the range from 34. 8 to 91 days, so it is customary to split the nutation into long-period and short-period terms.

In other words, it contains at least one interior angle with a measure larger than 180 °.

A rounded teaspoonful is a larger but less precise measure, produced without levelling the ingredient off nor heaping it as high as possible.

A heaping ( American English ) or heaped ( British English ) teaspoonful is a larger inexact measure, equal to the most that can be obtained by scooping the dry ingredient up without levelling it off.

Weinberg explains that if the vacuum energy took different values in different domains of the universe, then observers would necessarily measure values similar to that which is observed: the formation of life-supporting structures would be suppressed in domains where the vacuum energy is much larger.

The use of current dividers, often called shunts, allows a meter to be calibrated to measure larger currents.

The latter can be a controlled inundation by the military or a measure to prevent inundation of a larger area surrounded by levees.

These base units are used to derive larger and smaller units and replaced a huge number of unstandardised units of measure that existed previously.

For example, in assigning a measure to R that agrees with the usual length of intervals, this measure must be larger than any finite real number.

Criticisms continued, the most famous being 17th century jurist John Selden's aphorism: ‘ Equity is a roguish thing: for law we have a measure, know what to trust to ; equity is according to the conscience of him that is Chancellor, and as that is larger or narrower, so is equity.

Each year, the CMS Office of the Actuary must compare those two values, and if the spending measure is larger than the economic measure, IPAB must propose cost-savings recommendations for consideration in Congress on an expedited basis.

If a region A of the phase space has larger measure than region B, then a system chosen at random from the ensemble is more likely to be in a microstate belonging to A than B.

These eggs measure about — only Ostrich and Emu eggs are larger.

The larger multi-masted schooners were somewhat unmanageable and the rig was largely a cost-cutting measure introduced towards the end of the days of sail.

Classically, long measuring rods were used for larger projects, now superseded by tape measure or laser rangefinders.

These public slaves had a larger measure of independence than slaves owned by families, living on their own and performing specialized tasks.

Instruments used to measure smaller currents, in the milliampere or microampere range, are designated as milliammeters or microammeters.

The tangent galvanometer was used to measure currents using this effect, where the restoring force returning the pointer to the zero position was provided by the Earth's magnetic field.

Ordinary Weston-type meter movements can measure only milliamperes at most, because the springs and practical coils can carry only limited currents.

This allows the meter to measure large currents.

A similar circuit modified to act as a current-to-voltage converter enables the instrument to measure currents as small as a few femtoamperes.

Galvanometers were the first instruments used to detect and measure electric currents.

An RMS sensing multimeter must be used to measure the actual RMS currents and voltages ( and therefore apparent power ).

To measure the real power or reactive power, a watt meter designed to work properly with non-sinusoidal currents must be used.

It is used almost exclusively in oceanography, to measure the transport of ocean currents.

Deprez's galvanometer was developed for high currents, while D ' Arsonval designed his to measure weak currents.

By measuring the height and wavelength of ocean waves, the altimeters measure wind speeds and direction, and surface ocean currents and directions.

Chattock used it to measure magnetic fields rather than currents.

If we reverse the direction of the currents ( i. e. apply the current I < sub > 42 </ sub > and measure V < sub > 31, P </ sub >, and repeat for I < sub > 31 </ sub > and V < sub > 24, P </ sub >), then V < sub > 13, P </ sub > should be the same as V < sub > 31, P </ sub > to within a suitably small degree of error.

Before Einthoven's time, it was known that the beating of the heart produced electrical currents, but the instruments of the time could not accurately measure this phenomenon without placing electrodes directly on the heart.

PD currents are difficult to measure because of their small magnitude and short duration.

Just as multiple weather balloons that measure pressure as a function of height in the atmosphere are used to map the atmospheric pressure field and infer the geostrophic wind, measurements of density as a function of depth in the ocean are used to infer geostrophic currents.

The voltage clamp is used by electrophysiologists to measure the ion currents across the membrane of excitable cells, such as neurons, while holding the membrane voltage at a set level.

Congress specifically appropriated funding for such work in the 1875-1876 budget under which the 76 foot schooner Drift was constructed and sent out under Acting Master Robert Platt, U. S. N., Assistant Coast Survey, to the Gulf of Maine to anchor in depths of up to 140 fathoms ( 840 feet / 256 meters ) to measure currents.

GRACE enables separation of those two effects to better measure ocean currents and their effect on climate.

Meters may also measure VAR-hours ( the reflected load ), neutral and DC currents ( elevated by most electrical tampering ), ambient magnetic fields, etc.

Conversely, the minimum primary current a CT can accurately measure is " light load ," or 10 % of the nominal current ( there are, however, special CTs designed to measure accurately currents as small as 2 % of the nominal current ).
