  2. Crosswalks in North America - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosswalks_in_North_America

    In the United States, crossing laws vary from state to state and sometimes at the local level. All states require vehicles to yield to a pedestrian who has entered a marked crosswalk. [6] Legally speaking, in most states crosswalks exist at all intersections meeting at approximately right angles, whether they are marked or not. [7]

  3. Pedestrian crossing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedestrian_crossing

    Rules govern usage of the pedestrian crossings to ensure safety; for example, in some areas, the pedestrian must be more than halfway across the crosswalk before the driver proceeds, and in other areas, jaywalking laws are in place which restrict pedestrians from crossing away from marked crossing facilities.

  4. Zebra crossing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebra_crossing

    A zebra crossing (British English) or a marked crosswalk (American English) is a pedestrian crossing marked with white stripes (zebra markings). [1] Normally, pedestrians are afforded precedence over vehicular traffic , although the significance of the markings may vary by jurisdiction.

(,) = /.There is a further restriction — the solution must not grow at infinity, so that it has either a finite L 2-norm (if it is a bound state) or a slowly diverging norm (if it is part of a continuum): [1] ‖ ‖ = | |.

  7. Crossing (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossing_(physics)

    For example, the annihilation of an electron with a positron into two photons is related to an elastic scattering of an electron with a photon (Compton scattering) by crossing symmetry. This relation allows to calculate the scattering amplitude of one process from the amplitude for the other process if negative values of energy of some ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounded_mean_oscillation

    The space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO), is a function space that, in some precise sense, plays the same role in the theory of Hardy spaces H p that the space L ∞ of essentially bounded functions plays in the theory of L p-spaces: it is also called John–Nirenberg space, after Fritz John and Louis Nirenberg who introduced ...

  9. Line of action - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_of_action

    In physics, the line of action (also called line of application) of a force (F →) is a geometric representation of how the force is applied. It is the straight line through the point at which the force is applied, and is in the same direction as the vector F →. [1] [2]
