  2. Intrusion (orthodontics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrusion_(orthodontics)

    Another concept of force that is critical in understanding the concept of intrusion mechanics is that equal and opposite forces are produced at incisors and at molars. For example, a 40g force that's acting to intrude the lower incisors is being counteracted by 40g of force being produced to extrude the posterior molars where the other end of ...

    The thickness of a dike is much smaller than its other two dimensions, [9] and the opposite walls are roughly parallel, so that a dike is more or less constant in thickness. The thickness of different dikes can range from a few millimeters to hundreds of meters, but is most typically from about a meter to a few tens of meters.

    A batholith is an exposed area of (mostly) continuous plutonic rock that covers an area larger than 100 square kilometers (40 square miles). Areas smaller than 100 square kilometers are called stocks. [3] However, the majority of batholiths visible at the surface (via outcroppings) have areas far greater than 100 square kilometers.

    By definition, line of sight is the visual line of sight, that is determined by the ability of the average human eye to resolve a distant object. Our eyes are sensitive to light but optical wavelengths are very short compared to radio wavelengths.

  9. Flight zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_zone

    The flight zone of an animal is the area surrounding an animal that if encroached upon by a potential predator or threat, including humans, will cause alarm and escape behavior. The flight zone is determined by the animal's flight distance , sometimes called [ 3 ] flight initiation distance ( FID ) [ 4 ] which extends horizontally from the ...
