What speedometer reads in decimal divisions?
What speedometer reads in decimal divisions?
AM is ante meridian and PM is post meridian. It’s referenced to the prime meridian through Greenwich UK. If the sun is to the east of the line (ie. Before noon where it is vertical) it’s before (ante) the meridian. If it’s after (post) noon it’s after the meridian. It’s all outdated but that’s how time works.
Yeah WD 40 is great for adhesive removal. I used it all the time on materials that can’t stand up to acetone or harder solvents. Just wash with IPA or dish soap after so you don’t have slippery shoes.
35 miles. Takes about 45 minutes. Mostly listening to podcasts and preparing or decompressing. I don’t mind the drive. No traffic and it’s through the national forest. But I do hate buying gas.
9mm, safety, always off.
It is in the us. Imperial gallons are bigger than us gallons for some reason.
I’m an engineer but I work in imperial. Most machines run inches so I design in inches.
Lmao I’m sorry. It’s a breaking bad reference.
Quartz is a mineral. Jesus Marie!
I am guessing the reason it’s done has something to do with mining and trying to solve material density problems.
This is definitely part of it. Oil companies have labs that run samples all day every day to study the density and porosity of rocks to see how much oil or gas they could hold when they’re trying to find new areas to drill.
Most of what I’m familiar with is research labs at universities where they are studying it to simulate tiny earthquakes. It’s just pure research to learn more about how the earth functions as a system. All rocks are different and all situations are different so the more data you collect the more you can understand exactly what happened during an earthquake and why. Maybe it can lead to better earthquake prediction or it can let us use those earthquakes to know more about the structure of the earth.
Sort of. I work closely with geophysics in the rock mechanics world. I don’t personally know if any machines that create folds at large scale due to the heat and pressure required but rock deformation is a big thing they do. I’ve built a few machines that do this.
Small scale experiments at the temperatures and pressures required are done using diamond anvils at extreme pressure and sometimes with laser heating.
Larger scale is done with giant hydraulic presses called triaxes that use confining pressures up to the Gigapascal level.
Ive been all over the US but I still love Fayetteville
Me too :( love the state. Hate the government.
Still 3-5% more possible buyers for your car by the logic I guess. Not that I agree with the system but marketing is fucked.
Gangnam Style
Looks like it, doesn’t it :)
Onlinepersona fully endorses this comment.
I like the malicious vibes.
Yeah i didn’t know they actually trapped the souls of the 64 original Nintendo employees in it.
I had a Mazda MX-6 as my first car. Not super rare but I’ve only ever seen 2 other ones.
Currently I have an 09 Lexus GS460. Only 1600 total built and only 56 in 2009 so it’s exceptionally rare but no one cares.
Turns out a $65000 V8 sedan didn’t sell well when gas was $4/gal and the economy was in shambles.
