A chronometer is the NE PLUS ULTRA of portable timepieces. They are used as master timepieces for navigation particularly the nautical kind. They were evolved in the eighteenth century following the lead of John Harrison, (see who invented the Chronometer) designed for superior accuracy under the widest variable operating conditions. There are specialized variations in this sphere of timepiece structure. Hamilton had a special type of one-way detente (This may be what you are thinking of) in any case this particular type of movement must always be SET FORWARD. (bACK SETTING) for such purposes as returning to standard time are done in forward motion, maybe two or more l2-hour cycles around the dial, but in forward motion. One can actually cause damage to the movement setting one of these back(and your wallet or expense account)! This harmonizes neatly with the Hamilton slogan (noloiger used) Jamais Arrieres- never backwards! It strictly applies to the Chronometer movement and a similar device on Lever set Grade 992 watches. Don't listen to me!!!!

Mendeleev's periodic table was based upon arranging elements by atomic mass and grouping them into columns with similar chemical properties. He left gaps for undiscovered elements and predicted their properties with remarkable accuracy.

Female ejaculation typically doesn't have a strong smell. It is usually clear and odorless or may have a slightly sweet or musky scent. It is important to note that the scent can vary among individuals and may be influenced by diet and hygiene.

No, the hole will not be in spec. The hole diameter callout of 375 0002-0000 indicates a diameter range of 0.3750 to 0.3752 inches. Since the Deltronic pin is 0.3752 inches in diameter, it will not go through the hole if it is at the lower end of the specified range.

No, mirrors are not magnetic. Mirrors typically consist of a layer of reflective material, such as silver or aluminum, on the back side of a glass pane. This reflective layer does not possess magnetic properties.

Metals are typically malleable, meaning they can be easily shaped or bent without breaking. They also conduct heat and electricity well due to the movement of electrons within their structure. Metals tend to have metallic luster, and are opaque and reflective.

Rubbing alcohol is derived from crude oil.

mass can not be -ve. But mass can be negative in one condition,which is only hypothetical & is not applied to any of the theories......this condition is....if the speed orvelocityof a body becomes more than the speed or velocity of light(3*108 m/sec).

A water clock, also known as a clepsydra, is a device used in antiquity to measure time. It works by determining the passage of time based on the regulated flow of water from one container to another. It was one of the earliest timekeeping devices before the invention of mechanical clocks.

Clocks typically move clockwise, meaning the hands go from left to right as time passes.

To me,itz real because I saw this guy perform it on youtube.but logically[or reality just incase you guys dont know what it means]its a 40-60% chance its real.

Sheet lightning is formed when lightning occurs inside a cloud and illuminates the sky, giving the appearance of a sheet-like flash. This type of lightning is caused by the reflection and scattering of light from the lightning bolt within the clouds, creating a diffuse glow across the sky.

Metals conduct electricity due to the presence of free-moving electrons in their atomic structure. When a voltage is applied, these electrons can move through the metal, creating an electric current. This high mobility of electrons in metals is what allows them to be good conductors of electricity.

No one can answer this question since we don't know the dimensions of the chair, nor what it is made of.

The term used for the process of writing data to a disk is "writing" or "saving". This involves transferring data from the computer's memory to a storage medium like a hard drive or USB drive.

Sound travels through wood because sound is the vibration of atoms. Since wood is made out of atoms, sound can travel through wood. All atoms can vibrate, which is why sound can travel through pretty much anything, including wood.

Sond waves are so strong the make it through.

An object develops an electric charge when its electrons are transferred to or from another object, creating an imbalance of positive and negative charges. This can happen through friction (rubbing two objects together), conduction (touching two objects together), or induction (moving a charged object close to a neutral object).

I believe there is a daughter and as I recall she is married to Al Martin's son who is the Al is the smaller cookie packs referenced in their information. Al told me this as I recall. DC

It depends on the state of the water. Water vapor is lighter than air. Liquid or solid water (ice) are more dense and heavier than air.

Whiteout is typically made of a pigment, such as titanium dioxide, mixed with a solvent or carrier fluid, such as isopropyl alcohol. These ingredients are combined to create a thick, opaque liquid that can be applied to paper to cover up errors or mistakes.

The byproduct of aluminum production is called "red mud" or bauxite residue. It is a highly alkaline waste product that is generated during the refining process of bauxite into alumina, which is then used to produce aluminum. Red mud typically contains various elements like iron oxide, titanium dioxide, and silica.

The first ballpoint pen, invented by László Bíró in 1938, cost around $12.50 at that time.

The work done can be calculated using the formula:

Work = Force x Distance x cos(theta)

Assuming the angle between the force and the direction of motion is 0 degrees (cos(0) = 1), the work done would be:

Work = 14 N x 6 m = 84 Joules.

A sounder is a device that attracts fish by emitting sound waves into the water. The sound waves can lure fish towards the source by mimicking the sounds made by their prey or by creating vibrations that catch their attention.

The weight of wind turbine blades can vary depending on the size and design of the turbine. On average, the weight of a single blade for a large commercial wind turbine can range from 5,000 to 20,000 pounds or more. The largest turbine blades can weigh up to 40 tons or more.
