The influences of the level of the surface potential, the thickness of double layer, the relative size of a sphere, and its position in a cavity on the electrophoretic behavior of the sphere are discussed.
His aim was to make "a small contribution in the fight against rampant Immappancy"—in particular, the fact that most people do not realise how much the ubiquitous Mercator projection distorts the relative sizes of countries.A sphere cannot be represented on a flat plane without distortion, which means all map projections distort in one way or another.
For small spheres, the scattering coefficients a n have vanishing denominators when m 2 = − (n + 1)/n, where m is the relative refractive index of sphere relative to the embedded medium and n is an integer.
To solve this problem, the scan in which the spheres were scanned in air was used to determine the relative location of the spheres within the Jaszczak phantom.
His Mysterium Cosmographicum showed that if you nest spheres and Platonic polyhedra in the right order (sphere-octahedron-sphere-icosahedron-sphere-dodecahedron- sphere-tetrahedron-sphere-cube-sphere), the sizes of the spheres correspond to the relative sizes of the first six planets' orbits.
In this regime (with the relative sizes of the spheres also possibly playing a role), the bulk of the fluid is at rest in an inertial frame, and thus while the flow can be strongly driven, the influence of rotation is small (see, e.g., Guervilly and Cardin 2010).
Others disagreed about the relative place of the spheres of Mercury and Venus: Ptolemy placed both of them beneath the Sun with Venus above Mercury, but noted others placed them both above the Sun; some medieval thinkers, such as al-Bitruji, placed the sphere of Venus above the Sun and that of Mercury below it.
Methodologically, it would be desirable to conduct studies to clarify the relative contributions of different spheres of life.
Women's testimonial accounts demonstrate both the symbolic potency of women's bodies and speech in the public sphere and the relative lack of institutional security and control to which they can lay claim.
For woman, on the contrary, to love is to relinquish everything… Shut up in the sphere of the relative, destined to the male from childhood, habituated to seeing in him a superb being she cannot possibly equal, the woman who has not repressed her claim to humanity will dream of transcending her being toward one of these superior beings, of amalgamating herself with the sovereign subject.
