Understanding the components

Definition of Terms Following are some definitions that are useful in understanding the components of hazards and risk (CPQRA, 1989, pp. 3, 4). 

Most equations need only be learned well enough to understand the components which make up the formula such as in... 

Problem 6-7. Analyze the symbols for the symmetry species of Da/j, making sure you understand the components of the symbol and the transformation properties. 

How a particular vinylcyclopropane will be electronically perturbed toward a specific mode of reactivity depends on the substitution of either the cyclopropane or the vinyl portion. All of the principal reactions of vinylcyclopropanes proceed via transition states that require stabilization by activating groups and/or release of the ring strain. To understand and to alter the reactive tendencies of substituted vinylcyclopropanes, we must understand the components of the possible transition state and the probable reactive intermediates involved. Table 1 shows the principal reaction pathways of the vinylcyclopropane system in the context of their intermediates, products, and alkenic equivalents. 

Go Figure questions encourage you to stop and analyze the artwork in the text, for conceptual understanding. "Voice Balloons" in selected figures help you break down and understand the components of the image. These questions are also available in MasteringChemistry. 

The value of understanding the components of the fire tetrahedron is that removing any one of the components stops the fire. 

Notice that the Bessel functions illustrated in Fig. 12.33 resemble damped sine waves. The Bessel curves enable us to understand the component of the FM sidebands. The number of sidebands depends totally on the modulation index (m/). Table 12.7 is a tabular representation of the Bessel curve illustrated in Fig. 12.33. It shows the amplitudes of the sidebands for audio modulating harmonics where they decrease to a value close to the amplitude of the unmodulated carrier. The following example illustrates how to determine FM side bands using the Bessel tables. 

Understanding the components of social capital may prove helpful in identifying, measuring and developing it. The elements of social capital include (Theiss 2005, p. 61) ... 

Since the term boiler alone does not adequately describe the complete system for providing the motive force or energy, it is necessary to know and understand the component functions that go into making the boiler a complete unit. Comprehending the definitions in the terminology used by the industry is the first step in sorting out the perceived mysteries of understanding. 

In metallocene or generally single-site catalyzed LCB, we understand the components with the highest relaxation times to represent the structure or distribution of the long-chain branches. However, does the LCB spread out in a even... 

Understand the components of effective fire sen/ice communications and dispatching... 

When making decisions based on ratios, it is critical to understand the components that make up the ratio. 

To highlight the importance of understanding the components of a ratio, consider a simple operation s ratio related to workplace safety. The ratio is injury rate, or how many injuries per month the company records. Last year, the company reported 100 injuries for October, this year the company reported 125 injuries for October. Looking at the numbers only, without considering any other factors may not provide an accurate picture. It is crucial to ask a number of questions before passing judgment on the injury rate. Has the company changed... 

Understand the components of a control loop and how they interact. 

Understand the components of the loop and how these components interact. 

An adhesive is a polymer mixture or polymerizable material in a liquid or semiliquid state that adheres substrates together (Petrie 2000). Adhesives maybe composed of many components such as polymer, oligomer, filler, and additives from either natural or synthetic sources. It is very important to understand the components for adhesive formulation. The information of composition gives us an adhesive selection guide based on functional properties, curing mechanisms, and other relevant information supplied by the adhesive manufacturer.
