But the sentence is syntactically ambiguous and alternatively could be interpreted as meaning, for example: [2] (as an imperative) Measure the speed of flies like you would measure the speed of an arrow—i.e. (You should) time flies as you would time an arrow. (imperative) Measure the speed of flies using methods that an arrow would use—i.e ...
Here, the total score may be accepted even though some of the results had a tail wind of more than 2.0 m/s. In events where wind velocity is measured, the average velocity (based on the algebraic sum of the wind velocities, as measured for each individual event, divided by the number of such events) shall not exceed +2.0 m/s (Rule 260.18). [2]
The reference wind pressure q is calculated using the equation q = ρv 2 / 2, where ρ is the air density and v is the wind speed. [ 19 ] Historically, wind speeds have been reported with a variety of averaging times (such as fastest mile, 3-second gust, 1-minute, and mean hourly) which designers may have to take into account.
Winds over the said cap will trigger high wind alerts rather than a wind advisory. The advisory is site specific, but winds of this magnitude occurring over an area that frequently experiences such wind speeds on a basis will not trigger a wind advisory. [1] A slightly lower wind speed in areas around lakes may trigger a Lake wind advisory instead.
A human touching or handling eggs or baby birds will not cause the adult birds to abandon them. [55] The same is generally true for other animals having their young touched by humans as well, with the possible exception of rabbits (as rabbits will sometimes abandon their nest after an event they perceive as traumatizing).
Here's what you need to know about this potassium-rich fruit and whether it's healthy to eat every day.
Blue Java banana trees can grow to a height of 4.5 to 6 metres (15 to 20 ft). They are cold-tolerant and wind-resistant because of their strong pseudostems and root systems. The leaves are silvery green in color. [2] [3] The fruit bunches are small, bearing seven to nine hands.
According to one source, [39] the wind gradient is not significant for sailboats when the wind is over 6 knots (because a wind speed of 10 knots at the surface corresponds to 15 knots at 300 meters, so the change in speed is negligible over the height of a sailboat's mast). According to the same source, the wind increases steadily with height ...
