Standard length (SL) is the length of a fish measured from the tip of the snout to the posterior end of the last vertebra or to the posterior end of the midlateral portion of the hypural plate. This measurement excludes the length of the caudal (tail) fin. [1] Total and fork length of a fish. Total length (TL) is the length of a fish measured ...
The length of the fork is usually measured parallel to the steerer tube from the bottom of the lower bearing race to the center of the front wheel axle. [3] A 1996 survey of 13 700c road forks found a maximum length of 374.7 mm and a minimum of 363.5 mm. [citation needed]
Bicycle and motorcycle geometry. Bicycle and motorcycle geometry is the collection of key measurements (lengths and angles) that define a particular bike configuration. Primary among these are wheelbase, steering axis angle, fork offset, and trail. These parameters have a major influence on how a bike handles.
Some weight-length relationships use the total length of the fish while others use the fork length. It is important to measure the same kind of length that the reference relationship uses. It is also important to have the weight and length in the same units as the reference relationship. Weight vs. Length for Red Drum (data from Jenkins 2004)
The inspection allegedly uncovered a bluefin tuna with a curved fork length that measured 90 inches. The season for bluefin tuna that have a curved fork length of 73 inches or greater was closed ...
Standard weight equation for largemouth bass [1] and burbot [2] (fish). Standard weight in fish is the typical or expected weight at a given total length for a specific species of fish. Most standard weight equations are for freshwater fish species. Weight-length curves are developed by weighing and measuring samples of fish from the population.
The fish fork, sometimes along with the fish knife, is an eating utensil specialized for fish meals. Like most highly specialized utensils, the fork dates back to Victorian era ( c. 1870). With a length of about 7.5 inches, its distinctive features often include a wide left tine (similar to the pastry fork) or a deep notch that can be fit over ...
A tuning fork is a fork-shaped acoustic resonator used in many applications to produce a fixed tone. The main reason for using the fork shape is that, unlike many other types of resonators, it produces a very pure tone, with most of the vibrational energy at the fundamental frequency. The reason for this is that the frequency of the first ...
