Sentences with phrase «average velocity»

A high temperature gas has atoms with a larger average velocity than a low temperature gas of the same composition.

Assessing the effect of bench press muscle action and region, Newton et al. (1997) found that a greater concentric average velocity was achieved at all loads between 15 — 90 % of 1RM during the bench press throw when preceded by the eccentric muscle action compared to the concentric - only muscle action.

To map the currents, he divides a region into grids or bins then averages the velocity vectors within each bin.

He also showed evidence that wind velocities at Tmin correlate reasonably well with average velocities.

We can estimate the potential magnitude of the ice mass biases by noting that if the average velocity prediction bias of ~ 5 mm / yr evident in Figure 5 is developed over ~ 2 × 10 ^ 6 km2, an area somewhat smaller than that of West Antarctica, this would cause an apparent but spurious ice loss of ~ 33 Gt yr - 1, which is a significant fraction of all published ice mass rates derived from GRACE [Velicogna and Wahr, 2006; Chen et al., 2006; Ramillien et al., 2006; Sasgen et al., 2007a].
