The equilibrium rotation rate varies directly with the flow velocity and inversely with the distance between the magnet and the duct.

And we had custom espresso cups made that hide a magnet inside, and make those compasses go crazy, always centering on them.

America is a magnet, and many people can envisage themselves as Americans, because many successful Americans look like people in other countries.

And if you can cause that coil to resonate, what will happen is it will pulse at alternating current frequencies at a fairly high frequency, by the way.

The inventor of the current limiting reactance coil was Vern E. Alden who filed the patent on November 20, 1917 with an issue date of September 11, 1923.

And what was so striking about that time was, instead of repulsing people, I was actually proving to be a magnet for people.

The US is a magnet, and many people can envisage themselves as Americans, in part because so many successful Americans look like them.

In July 2009, Daniel Pearl Magnet High School (DPMHS) became a stand alone high school in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD).

In this case it is possible to measure either the torque on the magnet system or the angular velocity at which the wheel spins.

Europe should therefore become a magnet for creative people from all over the world and should, based on its rich cultural heritage, raise its own.

The third class of treatment was electric shock therapy, in which an electric shock was delivered from a galvanic battery (later electromagnetic generators) via an induction coil to greatly increase the voltage.

They struck at symbols of the prosperity that have made the Indian model so attractive to the globalizing world, a magnet for investors and tourists alike.

Foreign direct investment. Modern China has long been a magnet for global multinational corporations seeking both efficiency and a toehold in the world s most populous market.

He attended 32nd Street Visual and Performing Arts Magnet in Los Angeles (LAUSD) and Alexander Hamilton High School, although he received most of his education from tutors.

When the effect of the small radius of curvature of the wire itself is overcome, the lower secondary coil behaves as a conductor of large radius of curvature, corresponding to that of the drum.

The terrorists dented the worldwide image of India as an emerging economic giant, a success story of the era of globalization, and a magnet for investors and tourists.

They dented the worldwide image of India as an emerging economic giant, a success story of the era of globalization and an increasing magnet for investors and tourists.

At the Cold War s end, East European countries did not try to form local alliances, as they did in the 1920 s, but looked toward Brussels as the magnet for their futures.

Although skin effect limits Tesla currents to the outer fraction of an inch in metal conductors, the 'skin depth' of human flesh at typical Tesla coil frequencies is still of the order of 60 inches (150 cm) or more.

KS So I'm sure all you engineers know that even though aluminum is a metal, it's not a magnetic material. But something unexpected happens when you drop a magnet down an aluminum tube.

The ultra violet light to produce these effects may be obtained from an arc lamp, or by burning magnesium, or by sparking with an induction coil between zinc or cadmium terminals, the light from which is very rich in ultra violet rays.

Kuwaiti life reflects the many and varied political trends throughout the Arab world, as the country s open society and economic opportunities have made it a powerful magnet and regional safety valve since the 1950 s.

As you're seeing this gel magnet for the first time, if you assume that all magnets had to be hard, then seeing this surprised you and it changed your understanding of the way magnets could work.

And so we can accurately if the magnet is big enough, and your resolution is high enough you can actually detect all of the proteins in the body and start to get an understanding of the individual system.

Those with a university education left to work in either the West Bank or the Gulf States, while Gaza s armed groups became a magnet for most young people the only job they understood and which gave them power.

A current is induced in a loop of wire when it is moved towards or away from a magnetic field, or a magnet is moved towards or away from it, the direction of current depending on that of the movement.

I try to retain some values, and to not do as the Romans do in Rome however, is it possible while Gaza and its air saturated in water besiege me from every side and direction? Is it possible while its viscous values coil themselves around me, from in front and behind and above and below? Is it possible?

According to the book The Flight of the Creative Class by the US economist Professor Richard Florida of the University of Toronto, Sweden is ranked as having the best creativity in Europe for business and is predicted to become a talent magnet for the world's most purposeful workers.

And we were showing him the same gel magnet that you're holding in your hand and you know, we shared the same ideas. And you could see it in his face Roman starts to get really excited and he whips out this manila folder he opens it up and Keith and I look in, and he starts showing us concepts that he's been working on.

And as we thought about it more, we realized that it let you fill in all the details about the experience, just as if you saw it on TV. So, for TED we decided to take our favorite idea for the gel magnet and work with Roman and his team at the Directors Bureau to create a commercial for a product from the future.
