Lewis Cass (Democrat) in December 1847, in his famous letter to A.O.P. Nicholson in Tennessee, further defined the concept of popular sovereignty which would soon evolve as the mainstream Democratic alternative to the Wilmot Proviso:

title: Earth's rotation

context: The angular speed of Earth's rotation in inertial space is (7.2921150 ± 0.0000001) × 10 radians per SI second (mean solar second). Multiplying by (180 ° / π radians) × (86,400 seconds / mean solar day) yields 360.9856 ° / mean solar day, indicating that Earth rotates more than 360 ° relative to the fixed stars in one solar day. Earth's movement along its nearly circular orbit while it is rotating once around its axis requires that Earth rotate slightly more than once relative to the fixed stars before the mean Sun can pass overhead again, even though it rotates only once (360 °) relative to the mean Sun. Multiplying the value in rad / s by Earth's equatorial radius of 6,378,137 m (WGS84 ellipsoid) (factors of 2π radians needed by both cancel) yields an equatorial speed of 465.1 m (1,526 ft) per second, or 1,674.4 km (1,040.4 mi) per hour. Some sources state that Earth's equatorial speed is slightly less, or 1,669.8 km / h. This is obtained by dividing Earth's equatorial circumference by 24 hours. However, the use of only one circumference unwittingly implies only one rotation in inertial space, so the corresponding time unit must be a sidereal hour. This is confirmed by multiplying by the number of sidereal days in one mean solar day, 1.002 737 909 350 795, which yields the equatorial speed in mean solar hours given above of 1,674.4 km / h.

question: what is the speed of the earths rotation

answers: equatorial speed of 465.1 m (1,526 ft) per second, or 1,674.4 km (1,040.4 mi) per hour

title: Life of Pi

context: Martel has mentioned that a book review he read of Brazilian author Moacyr Scliar's 1981 novella Max and the Cats accounts in part for his novel's premise. Scliar's story describes a Jewish - German refugee crossing the Atlantic Ocean with a jaguar in his boat. Scliar said that he was perplexed that Martel "used the idea without consulting or even informing me," and indicated that he was reviewing the situation before deciding whether to take any action in response. After talking with Martel, Scliar elected not to pursue the matter. A dedication to Scliar "for the spark of life" appears in the author's note of Life of Pi. Literary reviews have described the similarities between Life of Pi and Max and the Cats as superficial. Reviewer Peter Yan wrote: "Reading the two books side - by - side, one realizes how inadequate bald plot summaries are in conveying the unique imaginative impact of each book," and noted that Martel's distinctive narrative structure is not found in Scliar's novella. The themes of the books are also dissimilar, with Max and the Cats being an allegory for Nazism. In Life of Pi, 211 of 354 pages are devoted to Pi's experience in the lifeboat, compared to Max and the Cats, in which 17 of its 99 pages depict time spent in a lifeboat.

Daphne was portrayed as the enthusiastic, but clumsy and danger - prone, hence her nickname "Danger - Prone Daphne" (revealed by her cousin, Shannon, being danger - prone is a Blake family trait in Scooby - Doo! and the Loch Ness Monster), member of the gang, who always follows her intuition. She serves as the damsel in distress and would occasionally get kidnapped, tied up, gagged and left imprisoned. Scooby and Shaggy usually save her, but sometimes Fred and Velma or even the whole gang do it. But as the franchise went on, she became a stronger, more independent character, who can take care of herself.

Daphne is also seen as the moral support in adaptations such as Mystery Incorporated. When Scooby is nowhere to be found, Daphne also shouts "Scooby - Doo! Where are you?!". In later series, Daphne is the one who owns the Mystery Machine and lets Fred drive it due to her crush on him. She occasionally helps the rest of the gang capture the villain by using some random, yet helpful, accessories in her purse, backpack, or any other bag she has at the moment. For example, in one episode, the gang is tied to posts by ropes, so Daphne pulls out her credit card and slices the ropes in half, leaving her free to untie the other members of the gang.

All the elements of the group are relatively nonreactive metals with a high melting points (1907 ° C, 2477 ° C, 3422 ° C); that of tungsten is the highest of all metals. The metals form compounds in different oxidation states: chromium forms compounds in all states from − 2 to + 6: disodium pentacarbonylchromate, disodium decacarbonyldichromate, bis (benzene) chromium, tripotassium pentanitrocyanochromate, chromium (II) chloride, chromium (III) oxide, chromium (IV) chloride, potassium tetraperoxochromate (V), and chromium (VI) dichloride dioxide; the same is also true for molybdenum and tungsten, but the stability of the + 6 state grows down the group.
