Sentences with phrase «air density»

These hotter temperatures will reduce air density and make it much more likely weight restrictions are needed for flights taking off during the hottest parts of the day.

Higher air density (colder air, close to sea level) produces more torque.

I'm a pilot, so I relate that to how we measure air density.

While there is sufficient air density for this to happen (above about 0.1 bar) the gravity based thermal gradient will exist.

However, the lower air density at Coors Field leads to a reduction in the Magnus force and therefore less break on certain pitchers including the curveball.

The collaboration will study fusion in a relatively unexplored intermediate density regime between the lower - than - air density of magnetic confinement fusion (MCF) that is studied at the ITER project in southern France, and the greater - than - solid density of laser - driven inertial confinement fusion (ICF) at the National Ignition Facility at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

A man - made vortex reaching miles into the sky would act much like a very tall chimney, where air density and temperature effects can be harnessed to produce electricity from low - energy content gases, such as those rejected from a cooling tower.

Fans may realize that hitters benefit from the mile - high air, but they may not realize how lower air density adversely affects pitchers — specifically their breaking balls.

Higher altitudes lead to lower air density which has tremendous impact on both batted balls and pitched balls.

As humidity rises, that air density continues to decrease which amplifies this already significant trend.

They say air density was probably no greater than 1.3 kilograms per cubic metre — comparable to today's 1.2 kg / m3 (Nature, DOI: 10.1038 / nature10890).

An analysis of a fossilised rain shower suggests air density on early Earth was broadly similar to today's — making it difficult to explain why Earth was warmer than it is now when the sun shone less brightly.

Hot vs cold air density Heating and cooling of air and weather The jet stream Tornadoes and hurricanes I like keeping the questions fairly simple so my students can focus more on the video and not trying to hurry on the sheet.

«First, no controlled laboratory experiments have been conducted at the scale of 70,000 meters long, with varying air density and a special temperature profile.

The cones in the sidewalls have holes, which dehydrate the tip of the roots due to a sudden greater air density in the soil, resulting in the air - pruning.

The temperature, pressure, and air density obey the gas law, therefore, in terms of radiative flux:

Located one mile above sea level, the lower air density reduces drag and causes the ball to travel approximately 5 % farther than ballparks located at sea level.

It's also harder to hover because of the reduced air density.

Wind — Caused by the uneven heating of the atmosphere, variations in wind temperature lead to variations in air density and pressure.

While most fans may realize that hitters benefit from the mile - high air, they may not realize how lower air density adversely affects pitchers.

While liftoff speed is around 170 mph at sea level, a commercial airliner's cruising speed is around 550 mph at 40,000 feet — where the air density is 10x thinner.

Insufficient pressure lowers air density, thereby decreasing the amount of available oxygen.

He had noted temperature, air pressure, air density, cloud cover, wind velocity and the valences of the upper atmosphere.

In an anecdote from a recent Sports Illustrated article, SI's Tom Verducci revealed that while the park was being built the organization «studied the air density and temperatures of Miami and plugged those variables into equations from NASA» before then writing an algorithm «to generate a volumetric approximation of all the possible batted ball flight paths» to make sure that nothing white and spherical would even come close to touching that retractable roof of theirs.

Although baseballs actually move slightly quicker in Coors Field, the air density can have serious impact on breaking balls.

Our original hypothesis was that overs would be more profitable at Coors Field — especially late in the season as the humidity rises thus causing a decrease in air density.

Warm weather and lower air density have clearly led to high - scoring games and profitable returns for over bettors, but I believed this edge would be magnified in late season games due to pitcher fatigue.

You may already know that high altitudes create lower air density, but you may not realize the full impact of the mile - high air in Denver.

Most people probably know that high altitudes create lower air density, but they may not realize the full effect of the mile - high air.

Although baseballs move quicker in Coors Field, the air density can have an extremely detrimental impact on breaking balls.

In the case of Scottsbluff, Vatistas and his team found that the temperature inside the tornado would have dropped from a comfortably warm background temperature of 27o C to a chilly 12o C. And at the tornado's centre, the researchers estimated the air density would have been 20 per cent lower than what's found at high altitudes.

«It's a standard measurement because they need to know the air density to determine the power output of the turbine.»

Perlan's backers hope that it can surpass 27,000 metres in 2017 — and, ultimately, they intend another version of the glider to fly higher than 30,000 metres, where the air density is almost identical to that on Mars's surface.
