What is Phase Angle?

HiRISE | Frequently Asked Questions
This is the angle between the sun, the surface, and the HiRISE camera at the time the picture was obtained.

What is the significance of Phase shifting transformer / Phase shift angle?

Untitled Document
Phase shifting transformer is used in certain systems to push more power in a specific line by introducing angle difference . The phase shift angle in the element data corresponds to the shift given to boost the power flow. Phase angle in the library is the phase shift introduced due to vector connection i.e. 1'O clock position or 11' O clock position etc. The Tie line refers to those lines connecting one utility to other or those lines, which island the system, when kept open.

Can I change the phase-angle soft-start time?

Watlow ES - FAQs
Yes. For power-up, you can set a soft-start time between 0 and 120 seconds in 0.1 second increments. For signal changes, you can control the rate of power change. For details, see the "Phase Angle" section in Chapter 5 of the user's manual. Click on the below links for more product information.

What is the Luteal Phase?

Ovulation Calculator: Ovulation
The Luteal Phase is the time period beginning with the day after ovulation and running through the remainder of your menstrual cycle (ending the day before your next period). Typically, the duration of the luteal phase phase lasts between 10 and 16 days and is generally consistent from cycle to cycle, averaging for most women at about 14 days. In the Trying to Conceive (TTC) Community, the luteal phase is also referred to as "DPO" - or days past ovulation.

What is a phase change ?

Self-Organizing Systems FAQ for Usenet newsgroup comp.theory...
A point at which the appearance of the system changes suddenly. In physical systems the change from solid to liquid is a good example. Non-physical systems can also exhibit phase changes, although this use of the term is more controversial. Generally we regard our system as existing in one of three phases. If the system exhibits a fixed behaviour then we regard it as being in the solid realm, if the behaviour is chaotic then we assign it to the gas realm.

What is 'Phase'?

Frequently Asked Questions
Your amplified subwoofer system comes from the factory wired in phase with the PHASE switch in the 0 degree position. Depending on your room, and the placement of your amplified system vis a vis your main speakers, there is a possibility that you will have more bass if you switch the PHASE switch to the 180 degree position. We suggest that once you have set up your system, you experiment with this setting.

What are Phase I, Phase II and Phase III studies?

NIH Clinical Center
The phase 1 study is used to learn the "maximum tolerated dose" of a drug that does not produce unacceptable side effects. Patient volunteers are followed primarily for side effects, and not for how the drug affects their disease. The first few volunteer subjects receive low doses of the trial drug to see how the drug is tolerated and to learn how it acts in the body. The next group of volunteer subjects receives larger amounts.

Will the angle of my car's seat make a difference?

Isaac - FAQ
No. Isaac®can be used with any racing seat provided it has normal, three-inch wide belts. A more reclined angle allows more body motion forward, regardless of the head and neck product you use, but does not alter the general range of head and neck loads. Also, it works great with an office chair! Just attach some belts to the chair and jump in with your helmet and Isaac® for some great holiday party fun.

It appears as though the main body of the aircraft is crooked or at an angle???

Frequently Asked Questions
That is normal for the heli to hover crooked. The full size ones do it too. Watch when they lift off and you will see one skid lift before the other. You may not have noticed it before either because of wind counteracting the lean or you were paying attention to flying. You probably noticed it now because your senses were heightened on the first flight after a near crash. Normally people don't notice this because they have grown so use to it while they were learning to hover.

Q47: Is it OK to put a towel under my carseat to adjust the angle?

Child Carseat Safety FAQ
You may put a tightly rolled towel or foam pool "noodle" under the front of a rear-facing carseat (near the crack of the vehicle seat) to get the necessary recline. You must not put a noodle, thick towels or any compressible material under a front-facing carseat.

What is the viewing angle on the thing?

Ultimate iPhone FAQs List, Part 2 - Pogue’s Posts - Te...
Youtube doesn’t require flash. It requires FLV codec support. Flash is used to present the FLV content with a playable interface to the user but FLV content can already be seen in other programs other than Flash (and yes, I know FLV stands for Flash Video). If Quicktime can decode FLV then it can show Youtube content without needing Flash (and Quicktime can decode Flash to a degree, as far as I remember).

What is Narrow or Closed Angle Glaucoma (NAG)?

Narrow Angle Glaucoma
This is the second most common form of glaucoma. Patients often have acute attacks of eye pain due to sudden increases in eye pressure. Between attacks the eye pressure is normal.

What medicines should patients with Narrow Angle Glaucoma avoid?

Narrow Angle Glaucoma
Patients with Narrow Angle Glaucoma should avoid cold remedies which contain Pseudoephedrine, Phenylephrine or Neo-Synephrine; anti-histaminics Chlorpheniramine, Diphenhydramine or Benadryl and overactive bladder remedies such as Detrol. These remedies often carry a warning telling you not to use them if you have glaucoma. If your Narrow Angle Glaucoma has been treated with laser, these medicines become safe for you to use.

What is a fan angle?

Lasiris Laser FAQs
The fan angle or angular spread of the laser beam determines the length of the line produced at a certain projection distance given by the formula : L=2DTan(FA/2) where L=length of line, D=projection distance and FA=fan angle. StockeryYale offers you the choice of standard fan angles 1°, 5°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90° and custom. Please note that the 1° fan angle is not available with the cross-hair model. See details in our glossary.

What should the release angle be?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Ten-Pin Bowling
The release angle is a continuation of the release point. The release angle should be projected from a position as low to the floor as possible without tilting the shoulder beyond the knee. It should be delivered onto the lane in an outward thrust, somewhat like landing a plane.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE SPORTS ANGLE?

BikeAbout Frequently Asked Questions
National cycling federations, cycling clubs, bicycle advocacy groups, etc. were contacted in many countries. We encouraged other local cyclists in all corners of the Mediterranean to join us over any leg of any ride. In a few places we were able to partake in formal events promoting cycling as a sport and as a basic means of commuter transportation over long and short distances.

What is Castor angle?

The EDGE Products - Frequently Asked Questions
Castor is the angle which the kingpin is swept backwards. So looking from a plan view, (top) you would see the top of the kingpin further rearward that the bottom. This causes the left front corner of the chassis to rise, thus throwing weight onto the opposite right rear wheel. That's good because the right rear wheel is now getting more traction which steers you into the corner. One of the compromises is it requires more effort from the driver to steer the more Castor angle you use.

What is Angle of View?

Schneider Optics
Angle of view is a measure of how much of the scene a lens can view. A fisheye lens can see as much as 180 degrees and a telephoto lens might see as narrow an angle as 5 degrees. It is important to distinguish horizontal angle of view from the vertical angle of view.

What about "phase-coatings"?

Astronomy Binoculars - Frequently Asked Questions
There is another type of coating process used on some binoculars, called "phase-coating." Because of their design, roof prism binoculars actually split incoming light into two separate beams as it passes through their prisms. Unfortunately, after they are split, the two paths of light become "out of step" with each other. This in turn affects image quality. Phase coatings are applied to the roof prisms and are designed to re-merge the two paths of light for maximum performance.
