Seawater, or sea water, is water from a sea or ocean.On average, seawater in the world's oceans has a salinity of about 3.5% (35 g/L, 35 ppt, 600 mM). This means that every kilogram (roughly one liter by volume) of seawater has approximately 35 grams (1.2 oz) of dissolved salts (predominantly sodium (Na +
The first list is based on the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) fact sheet, which includes a list of the world's top 40 military spenders as of 2023, based on current market exchange rates.
X = number of atoms of carbon, Y = number of atoms of hydrogen, Z = number of atoms of oxygen, and M = number of atoms of metal (metallic oxide produced). In the case of TNT (C 6 H 2 (NO 2) 3 CH 3), Molecular weight = 227.1 X = 7 (number of carbon atoms) Y = 5 (number of hydrogen atoms) Z = 6 (number of oxygen atoms) Therefore,
From 1979 to 2005, the number of deaths per year decreased 15% while the number of deaths per capita decreased by 35%. The 32,479 traffic fatalities in 2011 were the lowest in 62 years, since 1949. [5] For 2016, the NHTSA reported 37,461 people killed in 34,436 fatal motor vehicle crashes, an average of 102 per day. [6]
In 2010 the Japanese company Asahi, through its wholly owned Victorian subsidiary CUB, announced the launch of a new brewery Great Northern Brewing Co. [2] Great Northern is styled on 'Cairns Draught', a product first brewed in 1924 by Auguste Joseph François de Bavay, whose studies of sewage contamination in drinking water helped end diseases such as typhoid.

The lower mach number and turboprop instead of turbofan propulsion leads to lower flight altitude with a disproportionately high reduction in Non-CO 2 emissions. Thus, over 60% climate impact reduction can be potentially achieved by such advanced turboprop aircraft compared to current short to medium range passenger aircraft, yet before ...
Long distance HVDC lines carrying hydroelectricity from Canada's Nelson River to this converter station where it is converted to AC for use in southern Manitoba's grid. A high-voltage direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system uses direct current (DC) for electric power transmission, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) transmission systems.
