With this definition, given a natural number n, the sentence "a set S has n elements" can be formally defined as "there exists a bijection from n to S." This formalizes the operation of counting the elements of S. Also, n ≤ m if and only if n is a subset of m. In other words, the set inclusion defines the usual total order on the natural
Unlike the limited systems of other animals, human language is open – an infinite number of meanings can be produced by combining a limited number of symbols. [ 363 ] [ 364 ] Human language also has the capacity of displacement , using words to represent things and happenings that are not presently or locally occurring but reside in the ...

Between 2:10 and 2:15 am, a little over two and a half hours after Titanic struck the iceberg, the rate of sinking suddenly increased as the boat deck dipped underwater, and the sea poured in through open hatches and grates: in between that time, the electrical power on board also went out. [169]
In 2024 a prototype battery for electric cars that could charge from 10% to 80% in five minutes was demonstrated, [53] and a Chinese company claimed that car batteries it had introduced charged 10% to 80% in 10.5 minutes—the fastest batteries available—compared to Tesla's 15 minutes to half-charge.
[87] [88] Honshu has the highest population density at 450 persons/km 2 (1200/sq mi) as of 2010, while Hokkaido has the lowest density of 64.5 persons/km 2 as of 2016. [89] As of 2014, approximately 0.5% of Japan's total area is reclaimed land (umetatechi). [90] Lake Biwa is an ancient lake and the country's largest freshwater lake. [91]
