Because of the means of publication -- science-fiction magazines and cheap paperbacks -- and because dystopian science fiction is still appearing in quantity the full range and extent of this phenomenon can hardly be known, though one fact is evident: the science-fiction imagination has been immensely fertile in its extrapolations.

Because agricultural activities are seasonal and the areas of production and harvest of many foods are widely scattered geographically, and because of the high cost of transporting bulk food items any substantial distance to a central processing location, the use of large central processing stations, where low-cost radiation facilities approaching the megawatt range might be utilized, is inherently impracticable.

Because the range of possible values for K < sub > a </ sub > spans many orders of magnitude, a more manageable constant, pK < sub > a </ sub > is more frequently used, where pK < sub > a </ sub >

Because an electron beam only penetrates to a limited depth before being absorbed, typically up to 5 cm for electron energies in the range 5 – 20 MeV, electron therapy is useful for treating skin lesions such as basal cell carcinomas.

Because subwoofers are generally limited to a bandwidth of no higher than 150 Hz, the switching speed for the amplifier does not have to be as high as for a full range amplifier, and simpler designs could be utilized.

Because the muskoxen's natural range favors the protected Northeast Greenland National Park, it is a less common object of hunting than in the past.

Because waves at different frequencies propagate at differing phase velocities in dispersive media, for a large frequency range ( a narrow envelope in space ) the observed pulse would change shape while traveling, making group velocity an unclear or useless quantity.

Because silver is such a malleable metal, silversmiths have a large range of choices with how they prefer to work the metal.

Because speed and range were severely limited underwater while running on battery power, U-boats were required to spend most of their time surfaced running on diesel engines, diving only when attacked or for rare daytime torpedo strikes.

Because of the legacy of 8-bit text representations in programming languages and operating systems and the desire to avoid burdening users with the need to understand the nuances of encoding, many text editors used by HTML authors are unable or unwilling to offer a choice of encodings when saving files to disk and often do not even allow input of characters beyond a very limited range.

Because the town lies in the rain shadow ( leeward side ) of the Harz, less precipitation falls here than in similar temperate regions without the protection of a mountain range.

Because supersymmetry guarantees the cancellation of fermionic vs. bosonic non-zero modes in the instanton background, the involved't Hooft computation of the instanton saddle point reduces to an integration over zero modes.

Because the edges of ordinary graphs can only have two vertices ( one at each end ), the column of an incidence matrix for graphs can only have two non-zero entries.

Because no ideal sources of either variety exist ( all real-world examples have finite and non-zero source impedance ), any current source can be considered as a voltage source with the same source impedance and vice versa.

Because the Wronskian is non-zero, the two functions are linearly independent, so this is in fact the general solution for the homogeneous differential equation ( and not a mere subset of it ).

Because every non-zero value has to be adjacent to two 0's, the NAF representation can be implemented such that it only takes a maximum of m + 1 bits for a value that would normally be represented in binary with m bits.

Because the last part of the equation is non-zero only if, the equation is usually solved by representing it as a matrix for, thus getting equation

Because the output pulses have a fixed amplitude, the switching elements ( usually MOSFETs, but valves ( vacuum tubes ) and bipolar transistors were once used ) are switched either completely on or completely off, rather than operated in linear mode.

Because a different population of anterior horn cells is stimulated with each stimulation, each F wave have a slightly different shape, amplitude and latency.

Because the reflected and incident waves propagate in the same medium and make the same angle with the normal to the surface, the amplitude reflection coefficient is related to the reflectance R by

* Because bass sounds have a higher amplitude than high frequency sounds ( for the same perceived loudness ), the space taken in the groove by low frequency sounds needed to be large ( limiting playback time per side of the record ) to accommodate the bass notes, yet the high frequencies required only tiny variations in the groove, which were easily affected by noise from irregularities ( wear, contaminates, etc.

Because the FM modulation of SECAM's color sub carrier is insensitive to phase ( or amplitude ) errors, phase errors do not cause loss of color saturation in SECAM, although they do in PAL.

Because of their high amplitude to wavelength ratio, ultrasonic waves commonly display nonlinear propagation.

Because the MO activity is usually very small, normally less than 1 °, in conventional systems, the monochromator produces quasi-monochromatic light in a narrow wavelength window since the amplitude of modulation is wavelength dependent.

Because amplitude varies directly with sound pressure ( A = k < sub > 1 </ sub > P ) and sound pressure varies directly with distance ( P = k < sub > 2 </ sub > d ), such that amplitude also varies directly with distance ( A = k < sub > 1 </ sub >( k < sub > 2 </ sub > d ) = k < sub > 1 </ sub > k < sub > 2 </ sub > d ), the amplitude of the sound as perceived by the listener will be greatest when the speaker is at the point in its rotation closest to the listener and least when the speaker is farthest away.

Because the speaker is constantly moving either toward or away from the listener, however, the mechanism's rotation is constantly affecting the listener-perceived sound's wavelength by either " stretching " the wave ( increasing wavelength ) or " squeezing " it ( decreasing wavelength ) -- and because frequency, i. e., pitch, is inversely proportional to wavelength, such that increasing wavelength decreases frequency and vice versa, any listener for whom the speaker's motion changes the sound's perceived amplitude ( i. e., any listener whose distance from the speaker is changing ) must also perceive a change in frequency.

Because of their low frequency, long duration, and large amplitude, they can be the most destructive type of seismic wave.

Because the wave amplitude increases with decreasing density this easterly acceleration process is not effective at fairly high levels.

Because of the low amplitude of the signal once it reaches the patient's scalp and the relatively high amount of electrical noise caused by background EEG, scalp muscle EMG or electrical devices in the room, the signal must be averaged.

Because MEP amplitude is correlated with motor excitability, they offer a quantitative way to test the role of various types of intervention on the motor system ( pharmacological, behavioral, lesion ...) TMS-induced MEPs may thus serve as a index of covert motor preparation or facilitation, e. g., induced by the mirror neuron system when seeing someone's else actions.

Because the human ear is very sensitive to sudden changes, however, it is necessary for the success of the illusion that the amplitude of the tone in the region of the discontinuity not decrease or increase too abruptly.

Because the conic section shape describes a portion of a perfect sphere of radiated sound, cones have no phase or amplitude distortion of the wavefront.

Because the neutron scattering amplitude can be measured in absolute units, both the structural and magnetic properties as measured by neutrons can be compared quantitatively with the results of other characterisation techniques.

Because the two coils are wired in series, the resulting signal that is output by the pickup is larger in amplitude, thus more able to overdrive the early stages of the amplifier.

Because sinusoids are a sum of complex exponentials with complex-conjugate frequencies, if the input to the system is a sinusoid, then the output of the system will also be a sinusoid, perhaps with a different amplitude and a different phase, but always with the same frequency.
