That means less friction in opening articles on the Facebook newsfeed, which makes it more likely that people check out the content and spend time with it.

Those are important dimensions of democratic theory and practice, but the other term which is talked about less, is objects, whose «thingness» creates a sense of publicity beyond the so - called public sphere, and whose finitude creates friction.

This creates an air cushion that causes the raindrop to flatten and spread out, which the team believe would be less likely if the drop was striking a higher friction surface, and may help the splash evolve into a crown (Physical Review Letters, vol 102, p 134502).

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.

Upgrade your bedding with a satin pillowcase, which will create less friction and will not rough up the cuticle.

As a side note, it is usually better, downhill on good friction surfaces, to apply firmer less frequent braking actions compared to a continuous braking action, which causes more wear to the brakes and more heat to be dumped to the braking fluid.

That and a bit of engine friction, which is less significant with modern engines than it used to be.

This is made possible by switching to ANS nano - surfaced cylinder sleeves which create less friction and provide better fuel consumption.

CVTs are friction devices and have continuous friction type loss and wear whereas the dual clutch transmission only exhibit friction loss and wear during the actual shift which takes less than a second.

That's a lot of engineering babble, but the result is less friction in the transmission, which allows the Prius to make better use of its reduced power.

If Leap Seconds were added at less frequent intervals since 1999, this implies to me that the rate at which the spin rate of the earth is slowing due to earth - moon tidal friction effects has decreased since 1999, which means there was an opposing effect that started at 1999 due to a temporary (how temporary?)

Photo: ApteraSweet DOE Money Raining Down On MeAptera decided to make a 3 - wheel vehicle because it wasn't considered a car (reduced weight and friction are other benefits), which meant that they could make something less expensively by sidestepping

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.
