Last month, the Signpost hosted a crossword, which can be found here. The answers to last month's crossword can be found at the following link – thank you all for playing! We have a new crossword for this month – once more, all of the answers have something to do with Wikipedia, though the clues may seem unrelated.
The work W done by a constant force of magnitude F on a point that moves a displacement s in a straight line in the direction of the force is the product = For example, if a force of 10 newtons ( F = 10 N ) acts along a point that travels 2 metres ( s = 2 m ), then W = Fs = (10 N) (2 m) = 20 J .
The lowest word count in a published weekday-size 15x15 puzzle is the June 29, 2013 The New York Times crossword by Joe Krozel, with just 50 words. [57] The fewest shaded squares in a 15x15 American crossword is 17 (leaving 208 white spaces), set by the July 27, 2012 Times crossword by Joe Krozel. [58]
For example, if 12 across and 7 down both have three digits and the clue for 12 across is "7 down times 2", one can work out that (i) the last digit of 12 across must be even, (ii) the first digit of 7 down must be 1, 2, 3 or 4, and (iii) the first digit of 12 across must be between 2 and 9 inclusive.
N = 8, j = 10: the eight-bar linkage has 16 different topologies; N = 10, j = 13: the 10-bar linkage has 230 different topologies, N = 12, j = 16: the 12-bar has 6856 topologies. See Sunkari and Schmidt [16] for the number of 14- and 16-bar topologies, as well as the number of linkages that have two, three and four degrees-of-freedom.
The New York Times has used video games as part of its journalistic efforts, among the first publications to do so, [13] contributing to an increase in Internet traffic; [14] In the late 1990s and early 2000s, The New York Times began offering its newspaper online, and along with it the crossword puzzles, allowing readers to solve puzzles on their computers.
The kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work, force times displacement , needed to achieve its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the mass maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the object when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest. [2]
The abbreviation is not always a short form of the word used in the clue. For example: "Knight" for N (the symbol used in chess notation) Taking this one stage further, the clue word can hint at the word or words to be abbreviated rather than giving the word itself. For example: "About" for C or CA (for "circa"), or RE.
