The 1227 Anglepoise was released in 1935. It was primarily manufactured for the home and proved to be extremely popular. [10] The 1227 was hugely promoted by the Terry Spring Company and when England declared war on Germany on September 3 1939 the company ran an advert on the same day describing it as the "ideal blackout lamp".

The magnitude of an object's solid angle in steradians is equal to the area of the segment of a unit sphere, centered at the apex, that the object covers.Giving the area of a segment of a unit sphere in steradians is analogous to giving the length of an arc of a unit circle in radians.
Engineering notation or engineering form (also technical notation) is a version of scientific notation in which the exponent of ten is always selected to be divisible by three to match the common metric prefixes, i.e. scientific notation that aligns with powers of a thousand, for example, 531×10 3 instead of 5.31×10 5 (but on calculator displays written without the ×10 to save space).
Some one keeps adding "a change this image " tag to the anglepoise image here. I am removing the tag for these reasons (1) It's a promotinal use image. (2) It is a photo of the first production Anglepoise lamp and as such would be quite difficult to come accross today. To clarify: it is a specific model from the Anglepoise company.
Since sinc is an even entire function (holomorphic over the entire complex plane), Si is entire, odd, and the integral in its definition can be taken along any path connecting the endpoints. By definition, Si(x) is the antiderivative of sin x / x whose value is zero at x = 0, and si(x) is the antiderivative whose value is zero at x = ∞.
Dose area product (DAP) is a quantity used in assessing the radiation risk from diagnostic X-ray radiography examinations and interventional procedures, like angiography.It is defined as the absorbed dose multiplied by the area irradiated, expressed in gray-centimetres squared (Gy·cm 2 [1] – sometimes the prefixed units dGy·cm 2, mGy·cm 2 or cGy·cm 2 are also used).

The "X" in all current TI-30 models refers to the addition of a 10+2 display (that is, a 10 digit mantissa plus a 2-digit exponent) in 1993; with the addition of a 2-line display and a D-pad in the XIIS/XIIB in 1999, the TI-30 line split in 2, with the TI-30Xa becoming TI's overall entry-level scientific, and the enhanced XII designs offering ...
