Tight Squeeze Alcohol, however, excels benzol as an absorber, though it has but 9 atoms in its molecule; but, on the other hand, its molecule is rendered more complex by the introduction of a new element. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 The air passes through one set of purifiers during this preliminary period, and as no measurements are made for this period it is not necessary that the weights of the absorbers be previously known. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man One prototype already matches standard dimensions of shock absorbers, and the second will do so, too, he said. Novelties: Shock Absorbers That Generate Power for Cars 2010-06-05T20:12:00Z We need our shock absorbers every minute of the day. The Book of Business Etiquette He was very much interested in how such human-looking skin could act as both absorber and converter, but he could see nothing helpful. Masters of Space The reciprocity of action established in the case of oxygen comes out here; the good radiator is found by this experiment to be the good absorber. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 All precautions are taken, however, so far as securing tightness in coupling and installing them on the absorber system are concerned. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man However, if you have something like heavy water or graphite that will slow down neutrons and an absorber like cadmium, you can alter the speed of the reaction. The K-Factor It is the finest shock absorber in the world, as essential from an economic point of view as it is pleasant from a social one. The Book of Business Etiquette This detail here, which looks like a design for a glassed-in hot bed for early cabbage, is the heat absorber. The Forbidden Trail This inversion is not the result of temperature merely; for when a platinum wire, heated to the temperature of boiling water, is employed as a source, the iodide continues to be the most powerful absorber.

Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man The springs and shock absorbers that had been salvaged from scrapped vehicles were also not mounted where they should have been.��� Coming of Age: 1939-1946 Undercarriage.—Constantly examine the alignment and fittings of the undercarriage, and the condition of tyres and shock absorbers. The Aeroplane Speaks Fifth Edition Somewhat to their own amusement the two men gave in to the vehement small girl, and the ground work for the absorber being complete, they began to clear space for the engine house and consumer. The Forbidden Trail Franklin inferred from this experiment that black bodies are the best absorbers, and white ones the worst absorbers, of radiant heat. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 The pan of the balance is not large enough to permit the weighing of an absorber, hence provision is made for suspending it on a steel or brass rod from one of the hanger arms. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man As a rule, baby's clothing materials should be light in weight, good moisture absorbers, and at the same time able to retain the body heat. The Mother and Her Child In this scheme of State Socialism, or rather State capitalism, Mr. Roosevelt fails to inform us how the idle owners of the trusts are to function except as profit absorbers and parasites. Socialism As It Is A Survey of The World-Wide Revolutionary Movement The absorber was not as ambitious a structure as the engine house. The Forbidden Trail We have now to change the form of our conception, and to figure these molecules not as absorbers but as radiators, not as the recipients but as the originators of wave-motion. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 In order to suspend this heavy absorber, a small elevator has been constructed, so that the vessel may be raised by a compressed-air piston.

Torchy As A Pa The searcher for thrills or the touring shock absorber will find nothing in London to rattle his psychic slats. Europe After 8:15 A part of the sheet iron roof had blown off the engine house, and lay in a great twisted heap on the absorber. The Forbidden Trail And from this fact, even if no direct experiment on the vapour of water had ever been made, we should be entitled to rank that vapour as our most powerful absorber of radiant heat. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 The total amount of water-vapor leaving the chamber is determined by noting the increase in weight of the first sulphuric-acid vessel in the absorber system. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man They are our shields and barriers; our sure defense; our shock absorbers. Jane Journeys On Their regular drive is a molecular drive with lead disintegration apparatus for the energy, cosmic ray absorbers for the heating, and a drive much like ours. Invaders from the Infinite Roger would let no one touch the engine but himself, but Ernest and Gustav puttered with the condenser and the pump and at dawn started the oil circulating through the absorber. The Forbidden Trail The position of a vapour as an absorber of radiant heat was shown to be determined by that of the liquid from which it is derived. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 At the right is shown the balance for weighing absorbers, and back of that the case surrounding the balance for weighing oxygen. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man Snap impulsively reached for the absorbers to let in the outside light. Brigands of the Moon Seconds later the giant shock absorbers crunched on the ramp and Tom closed the master switch cutting all power. The Revolt on Venus When they had crawled into their cots, an hour later, Roger said: "Ern, do you realize that we haven't a drop of crude oil for the absorber flow?" The Forbidden Trail The cloth itself, without reference to the dye, is nearly as good an absorber of heat as the snow around it. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 After innumerable trials with glazed vessels of different kinds of pottery and glass, arrangements were made with the Royal Berlin Porcelain Works to mold and make these absorbers out of their highly resistant porcelain. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man Both as a radiator and as an absorber, carbonic acid is, in general, a feeble gas. Scientific American Supplement, No. 365, December 30, 1882 He is therefore a student, in the best sense of the word�not a slave to mere erudition, but an alert and eager absorber of things new and old according to his abilities and opportunities. Nature Mysticism The day in May that the men began a test for oil leaks in the absorber dawned with a promise of ferocious heat.

General Science If there were any rough spots in the road being traveled, the shock absorbers took care of them. Ruth Fielding in the Great Northwest Or, The Indian Girl Star of the Movies The damage done by the dust storm to the absorber was now completely remedied and Roger and Ernest began work on a shallow concrete trough on which the condenser was to be erected. The Forbidden Trail But though the snow transcends the cloth, both as a radiator and absorber, it does not much transcend it. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 Thus there would be a contraction in the volume, and air thus compressed would subsequently be released into the open air when the absorbers were uncoupled. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man Such decomposition, with the loss of nitrogen, leaves a small portion of free hydrogen, which is the gas that can be drawn from the top of the absorber, ignited and burned. Scientific American Supplement No. 819, September 12, 1891 Adaptive originality in disposing of objections is a manifestation of tact and diplomacy—the fine art of letting the other man down with a shock absorber instead of jolting him to your way of thinking. Certain Success "You will laugh at me and tell me to increase the absorber area, will you!" exclaimed Roger. The Forbidden Trail Alas! however, in the dark our green plant becomes essentially like an animal as regards its gas food, for then it is an absorber of oxygen, while it gives off carbonic acid. Scientific American Supplement, No. 787, January 31, 1891 The air in this absorber above the acid, amounting to about 14 liters, has a different composition in that the water-vapor has been completely removed. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man From the coolers the gas returns to the absorber, from which it is pumped, in liquid form, into the retort, to be again heated, the gas expelled and the process repeated. Scientific American Supplement No. 819, September 12, 1891 They dropped in a field by the roadside, landing on the running wheels as lightly as a feather, thanks to the shock absorbers, similar to those of an automobile, with which the Wondership was equipped. The Boy Inventors' Radio Telephone At five o'clock Sunday afternoon, the absorber was finished. The Forbidden Trail Our lives are buried lives; we are unconscious absorbers, and reproducers, under other words of that which we have imbibed elsewhere. Cobwebs of Thought If the sulphuric-acid absorbers have not exceeded the limit of gain in weight they are used again; if they have, new ones are put in their place. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man Does the absorber of mental pabulum from books argue wrongly from similar premises?

The Nine-Tenths The sulphuric-acid absorbers weigh about 18 kilograms when filled with acid. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man UNDERCARRIAGE.—Constantly examine the alignment and fittings of the undercarriage, and the condition of tyres and shock absorbers. The Aeroplane Speaks Were any substance a powerful radiator and at the same time a bad absorber, it would necessarily radiate faster than it would absorb, and its reduction of temperature would continue without limit. Scientific American, Volume 22, No. 1, January 1, 1870 A Weekly Journal of Practical Information, Art, Science, Mechanics, Chemistry, and Manufactures. It involves so much; is indeed a sort of universal absorber, combiner, and conqueror.

White Jacket or, the World on a Man-of-War Cotton is a poorer conductor of heat and absorber of moisture, and is therefore warmer than linen. Hygienic Physiology : with Special Reference to the Use of Alcoholic Drinks and Narcotics Thus aimlessness, so far as relations of study to life are concerned, is put at a premium, and students are directly encouraged to be omnivorous absorbers without further responsibility. How to Study and Teaching How to Study I received shock after shock until I felt like a shock absorber. Reno — a Book of Short Stories and Information These valves, which are very well constructed, have never failed to show complete tightness under all possible tests and are used at the exit and entrance end of the absorber system. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man Black silk is negative to white silk, and it has been observed that the best radiator and absorber of light and heat is the most negative. The Story of Electricity These economies could be regarded as external appendages, shock absorbers and regulators of their host economies. After the Rain : how the West lost the East From this it will be seen how necessary it is that such a large amount of air should be perfectly fresh and wholesome, for the lungs act as a pair of immense sponges or absorbers. The Art of Living in Australia ; together with three hundred Australian cookery recipes and accessory kitchen information by Mrs. H. Wicken How the shock absorbers of your spine are brought into play and how infinite are the windings on this mountain road; yet it is worth climbing for the scenes are thrilling. See America First There is, then, no correction necessary for the rejection of air with the changes in the absorber system. Respiration Calorimeters for Studying the Respiratory Exchange and Energy Transformations of Man The white lie, so-called, the pleasant, assumed interest, the untruth intended to smooth social relations are shock absorbers and are part of the courtesy technique. The Foundations of Personality The guns, fitted with the recoil shock absorbers, were mounted, and Lieutenant Marbury had returned to go aloft in the big aerial warship. Tom Swift and His Aerial Warship, or, the Naval Terror of the Seas The weighing can then be made as the absorber is swinging freely in the air.
