Sentences with phrase «less friction when»

For example, the NuMA protein experienced less friction when being moved toward the minus end of the microtubule than when being moved toward the plus end, while the EB1 protein showed the opposite, a preference for the plus end.

Not exact matches

But when using a more sustainable offer like 10 - 20 percent off, the friction needs to be less or consumers won't bite.

Those modifications include stop — start (idle - off) systems in which the engine shuts down when the car is stopped during driving; low rolling - resistance tires (which are harder and thus less flat, reducing friction); variable valve timing for engines, which increases gas consumption efficiency; and fuel economy computers or displays to encourage eco-driving, such as such as those in the Toyota Prius, which show miles per gallon averages for that moment, hour, week or month, or when riding downhill, so that drivers are more aware of how their driving impacts fuel efficiency.

But I have found when we truly try to understand these areas in someone less friction and frustration will occur.

This also limits the maximum RPM of the engine because there are increased friction losses due to increased speed of the piston at the same RPM when compared to an engine with less stroke.

Those tiny wheels that look so impossibly small when contrasted with the Leaf's slab sides sit on low - rolling - resistance tires that reduce friction and disturb less air as they roll down the road.

Or we can just leave it in Auto mode and let the computer and its busy family of algorithms and sensors decide how to manage things, and even when to disengage the rear axle entirely for less friction.

The bearings generate less friction, the accessories suck less power, lubrication has been refined and the water pump has a clutch to turn only when needed.

The traction assistance provided by the double - disc clutch is especially noticeable when the friction ratio between the tyres and the road is low, since the clutch locks the powertrain mechanically during moderate starting if the friction coefficient between the tyres and the road is less than µ = 0.3 (more or less equivalent to snow).

But when you come back to where you started, it's a zero sum game (less with friction).

I'm guessing that Musk's Hyperloop will be different (I'm guessing Musk's thing will use tubes that have very low air pressure - too hard to get a complete vacuum, but the less air, the less friction - and use maglev - like ways to accelerate and decelerate, which means as a bonus that you can recover a lot of energy when you decelerate), but we'll see soon enough.

When the road is wet from the rain or sleek because of snow, it causes your tire to have less friction and that it also decreases the visibility both or you as a driver and the headlights.
