Power, words

Exhibit 1-2 is a short list containing examples of skill-related words you could list in your resume. See Appendix A for a more complete list of power words. 

Microsoft Word comes with a pre-defined resume template you can use to assist in the formatting of your resume. If you already use Microsoft Word, this chapter will walk you through the resumeformatting process using this powerful word processor. 

As you formulate your resume, be sure to show the results you achieved at your last job—"during this time profits reached an all-time high"—that kind of thing. Your potential employer will be impressed by the fact that you have something to show for all your hard work. An economy of words is crucial as well. Use power words and phrases to succinctly highlight your accomplishments. 

Not only does your resume need to convey a lot of information in a relatively small amount of space, but every word, phrase, or sentence needs to convey something positive about you. Your resume must be well written, incorporate powerful words and phrases, and look professional. It should ... 

True is a very powerful word, with its absolute qualities. It s too powerful. What we actually know is that this Euclidean assumption produces very practical results in a lot of ordinary physical-world situations. This is its truth value. There is also a geometry, though, that...

It is a must for writers and utterly fascinating for any English speaker. 

The next point of interest has to do with the question of how deep the surface region or region of appreciably unbalanced forces is. This depends primarily on the range of intermolecular forces and, except where ions are involved, the principal force between molecules is of the so-called van der Waals type (see Section VI-1). This type of force decreases with about the seventh power of the intermolecular distance and, consequently, it is only the first shell or two of nearest neighbors whose interaction with a given molecule is of importance. In other words, a molecule experiences essentially symmetrical forces once it is a few molecular diameters away from the surface, and the thickness of the surface region is of this order of magnitude (see Ref. 23, for example). (Certain aspects of this conclusion need modification and are discussed in Sections X-6C and XVII-5.)... 

The rate of storage of chemical potential (in other words, the power P carried by the chemical reaction) isypg, where j = d/j/dt = the net flux per unit volume (here, as elsewhere, lower case letters denote concentrations,... 

Nobel-laureate Richard Feynman once said that the principles of physics do not preclude the possibility of maneuvering things atom by atom (260). Recent developments in the fields of physics, chemistry, and biology (briefly described in the previous sections) bear those words out. The invention and development of scanning probe microscopy has enabled the isolation and manipulation of individual atoms and molecules. Research in protein and nucleic acid stmcture have given rise to powerful tools in the estabUshment of rational synthetic protocols for the production of new medicinal dmgs, sensing elements, catalysts, and electronic materials. 

Ema data can be quantitated to provide elemental concentrations, but several corrections are necessary to account for matrix effects adequately. One weU-known method for matrix correction is the 2af method (7,31). This approach is based on calculated corrections for major matrix-dependent effects which alter the intensity of x-rays observed at a particular energy after being emitted from the corresponding atoms. The 2af method corrects for differences between elements in electron stopping power and backscattering (the correction), self-absorption of x-rays by the matrix (the a correction), and the excitation of x-rays from one element by x-rays emitted from a different element, or in other words, secondary fluorescence (the f correction). 

The First Reactor. When word about the discovery of fission in Germany reached the United States, researchers thereafter found that (/) the principal uranium isotope involved was uranium-235 (2) slow neutrons were very effective in causing fission (J) several fast neutrons were released and (4) a large energy release occurred. The possibiUty of an atom bomb of enormous destmctive power was visualized. 

A sohdus indicates the quotient of two unit symbols and the word per the division of two unit names m/s for meter per second. The horizontal line or negative powers are also permissible. The sohdus or the word per is not repeated in the same expression, eg, acceleration as m/s for meter per second squared and thermal conductivity as W/(m-K) for watt per meter kelvin. 

The ubiquitousness of the personal computer and the increasing power of the program packages available for it have shifted the emphasis away from large, mainframe-based systems like PLATO. Instead, graphics are included in utihty programs such as equation solvers, spreadsheet processors, and word processors. 

Liquid crystal display systems have been increasingly used in electro-optical devices such as digital watches, calculators, televisions, instmment panels, and displays of various kinds of electronic equipment, ie, lap-top computers and word processors. The dominant reason for thek success is thek extremely low power consumption. Furthermore, the Hquid crystal display systems have been remarkably improved in recent years, and today they have high resolution (more than 300,000 pixels) and full color capabiUty almost equivalent to those of a cathode ray tube. 

From the definition of a partial molar quantity and some thermodynamic substitutions involving exact differentials, it is possible to derive the simple, yet powerful, Duhem data testing relation (2,3,18). Stated in words, the Duhem equation is a mole-fraction-weighted summation of the partial derivatives of a set of partial molar quantities, with respect to the composition of one of the components (2,3). For example, in an / -component system, there are n partial molar quantities, Af, representing any extensive molar property. At a specified temperature and pressure, only n — 1) of these properties are independent. Many experiments, however, measure quantities for every chemical in a multicomponent system. It is this redundance in reported data that makes thermodynamic consistency tests possible. 

The potential for power recovery from liquid streams exists whenever a liquid flows from a high-pressure source to one of lower pressure in such a manner that throttling to dissipate pressure occurs. Such throtthng represents a system potential for power that is the reverse of a pump—in other words, a potential for power extraction. Just as in a pump, there exists a hydraulic horsepower and a brake horsepower, except that in the recoveiy they are generated or available horsepowers. 

In other words, for the same bus voltage. he active component of the current for G would remain the same while the reactive component /, sin 0, /, sin 0i or /"sin 0" and therefore the reactive power(kVAr) would continue to vary. A change in excitation will chatige and its load angle 0 (Figure 16.26(a)) and consequently will change / and its p.f.. cos 0. The following possibilities may arise ... 

The second component is caused by the different harmonic quantities present in the system when the supply voltage is non-linear or the load is nonlinear or both. This adds to the fundamental current, /,- and raises it to Since the active power component remains the same, it reduces the p.f of the system and raises the line losses. The factor /f/Zh is termed the distortion factor. In other words, it defines the purity of the sinusoidal wave shape. 

Why do we use the word driver We tend to think that pumps are powered by r-r motors. However, some pumps are powered by internal combustion engines, or with turbines or hydraulic motors. Not always are pumps and drivers connected h a direct coupling. Some pumps are coupled through pulleys, chain drives, gearboxes or even transmissions. 

Plotting these pressures and temperatures on a Mollier diagram (Figure 4-115), makes it possible to compare the amount of available energy for both examples. The available energy of Example 1 is 71.5 Btu/lb as compared to 110.4 Btu/lb for Example 2. In other words, increasing the inlet pressure from 30 to 42 psia and the temperature from 1,200 to 1,300°F results in over a 50% increase in available energy, which translates directly into recoverable power. 

The predominant air pollution problem of the nineteenth century was smoke and ash from fhe burning of coal or oil in the boiler furnaces of stationary power plants, locomotives, and marine vessels, and in home heating fireplaces and furnaces. Great Britain took the lead in addressing this problem, and, in the words of Sir Hugh Beaver (3) ... 

The augmentation of power in a gas turbine is achieved by many different techniques. In this section, we are looking at techniques, which could be achieved on existing gas turbines. Thus, techniques such as additional combustors are not considered as being practical on an existing turbine. In other words, the concentration in this section is on practical solutions. Practical power augmentation can be divided into two main... 

If the gas is to be intimately dispersed in the liquid, the input power to the mixer will be several times the gas power level for the gas. In other words, the mixer power level must be compared to the gas power level to be certain that the required degree of mixing is achieved. 

It might appear that the most economical mixer w ould have a lai ge impeller and low mixer horsepower. How ever, the torque required to turn large impellers is often greater than for smaller impellers, even though the power required for larger impellers is less. In other words, the mixer cost is governed largely by the torque required to drive the mixer.
