The power law is often used in wind power assessments [4] [5] where wind speeds at the height of a turbine ( 50 metres) must be estimated from near surface wind observations (~10 metres), or where wind speed data at various heights must be adjusted to a standard height [6] prior to use.
It is first determined whether M is indeed greater than 1.0 by calculating M from the subsonic equation. If M is greater than 1.0 at that point, then the value of M from the subsonic equation is used as the initial condition for fixed point iteration of the supersonic equation, which usually converges very rapidly.

For example, a metric 2520 component is 2.5 mm by 2.0 mm which corresponds roughly to 0.10 inches by 0.08 inches (hence, imperial size is 1008). Exceptions occur for imperial in the two smallest rectangular passive sizes. The metric codes still represent the dimensions in mm, even though the imperial size codes are no longer aligned.
While sweet potato provides less edible energy and protein per unit weight than cereals, it has higher nutrient density than cereals. [ 86 ] According to a study by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization , sweet potatoes are the most efficient staple food to grow in terms of farmland, yielding approximately 70,000 kcal per hectare ...
Stonehenge is a prehistoric megalithic structure on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England, two miles (3 km) west of Amesbury.It consists of an outer ring of vertical sarsen standing stones, each around 13 feet (4.0 m) high, seven feet (2.1 m) wide, and weighing around 25 tons, topped by connecting horizontal lintel stones, held in place with mortise and tenon joints, a feature unique among ...
Lake Tahoe (/ ˈ t ɑː h oʊ /; Washo: Dáʔaw) is a freshwater lake in the Sierra Nevada of the Western United States, straddling the border between California and Nevada.Lying at 6,225 ft (1,897 m) above sea level, Lake Tahoe is the largest alpine lake in North America, [4] and at 122,160,280 acre⋅ft (150.7 km 3) it trails only the five Great Lakes as the largest by volume in the United ...
It produced 145 hp (147 PS; 108 kW) at 6,400 rpm and 186 N⋅m; 137 lb⋅ft (19 kg⋅m) of torque at 4,400 rpm [15] and accelerated the car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 6.5 to 7.0 seconds. [ 16 ] [ 17 ] The supercharger was belt-driven but actuated by an electromagnetic clutch, so that it would not be driven except when needed, increasing ...
The Inco Superstack was the tallest freestanding chimney in the world at 380 m (1,250 ft) until the construction of the Ekibastuz GRES-2 Power Station, [149] and is currently the second tallest structure in Canada after the CN Tower. [150] It is almost the same height as the roof of the Empire State Building. [151]
