Flying Machines: construction and operation; a practical book which shows, in illustrations, working plans and text, how to build and navigate the modern airship Octave Chanute 1871

This is done in telephony, and hence we obtain the law of retardance, or the law by which we can calculate the distance to which speech is possible.

The "head-on" resistance is the retardance the aeroplane meets in passing through the air, and is counted in square feet.

Retardancy

All the software really does is load the images, process all the algorithms for the math using Mueller matrices and Stokes vectors and stuff and then stores all the retardance values along with its orientation into a matrix.

Now the retardance due to electromagnetic inertia increases directly with the amount of electromagnetic inertia present, but it diminishes with the amount of resistance of the conductor.

The "head-on" resistance is the retardance the aeroplane meets in passing through the air, and is counted in square feet.

Retardancemeaning

By rotating this piece and flipping it around we can make the four measurements needed to get the retardance and birefringence.

They increase the time constant and introduce a slowness which may be called retardance, for they diminish the rate at which currents can be transmitted.

The only thing that might be of a retardance in that is using of this in political -- using of this variable in domestic politics.

The whole retardance, and, therefore, the speed of working the circuit or the clearness of speech, is given, by the equation
