Well, a lot of Terrans in the Year Zero had never seen a suit of armor, or an harquebus, or even a tinder box or a spinning wheel.
There'll be forty of them, each for a band of a hundred cycles, from zero to four thousand.
One day when it was aboutzero degrees out, we cut the tree down and when it hit the ground the bees flew up in the air about ten feet before the cold got them and they fell to the ground.
The little sheepherder's wagon was very interesting and as it was 10 degrees below zero we were glad to get inside.
One morning the temperature was 45 degrees belowzero with so much frost in the air that you couldn't see the mountains to the east.
One night it went down to 26 degrees below zero and I believe that is still the record for this area.
We put alcohol in the radiator to be safe at about zero degrees.
When we arrived we found out that it was 15 degrees below zero and that was why the oil would not pour!
Indeed, just as we measure height from the ocean level as zero, so we measure electric pressures as from the zero level of the earth's electrical state.
But what prevents the needle from going farther, and what brings it back to zero each time?
With flexible wires I connected the two ends of the wire on this spool to a sensitive ammeter, B, which had its zero in the middle of the scale, and I laid down upon the table a bar magnet, C.
This carried the needle to the left, and inasmuch as the zerois in the middle of the scale we may with this instrument both measure the amount of current and tell its direction.
And now as I move this armature along the field you see the needle of the ammeter move to the right from zero to ten.
When the armature is moved in the opposite direction along the field the needle moves in the opposite direction pastzero and on to ten at the left.
Zero gravity or decreased gravity occurs during freefall, in parabolic trajectory, or during orbit around the Earth.
The disciplines involved in such systems include biology and microbiology, cryogenic fluid handling at zero g, heat transfer, and thermal integration with other systems, such as power.
A Study of the Effects of Zero Gravity on Cell Physiology.
Interestingly enough it now appears that the otolithic output in mammals including man is the differential of linear acceleration, and therefore unaffected by zero g.
The gravity force on Earth is 1 g, but this force may be experimentally varied from zero g, or weightlessness, to many thousands of g's.
A Zero Gravity Pellet Dispenser for Use With Primates in Long-Term Space Flights.
Space offers biologists completely new environmental factors, such as the effects of zero gravity and of removal from Earth's rotation.
Zero once more, please, Madame," said Mary to her companion.
Lots of people like zero better than anything, because they think the croupiers try to spin it, for the good of the bank.
I say, if you must have a fetish, have a reasonable one, like playing for neighbours of zero at roulette.
I sometimes put five francs on zero en plein to protect half a stake on a simple chance," Mary explained, now thoroughly conversant with every intricacy of the game that had been so kind to her.
She longed for to-morrow morning, so that she might go back to the same table at the Casino, and play on zero and twenty-four again.
Take zero again, and the neighbours," he mumbled cautiously.
Mary wanted to know what "neighbours" meant, and was told hastily that they were the numbers lying nearest to zero on the wheel.
They are only suitable for zero weather and we don't seem to have any more zero weather nowadays.
The mercury was not below zero until the evening of January 8th, and then only 2° below.
The vessel f is filled up to the zero mark by raising the vessel g; the tap e is then shut, and connexion is made with the tube d.
After the carbide is completely decomposed, but not before two hours at least have elapsed, the cock p is shut, and the gasholder is run down to the zero mark by opening the cock q.
Weights are added to the gasholder until the manometer n gives the zero reading; the position of the gasholder C is then read off, and readings of the barometer and of the thermometer o are made.
The gasholder is then emptied down to the zero mark by closing the cock p and opening q.
True zero potential could only exist in the surface of a body infinitely distant from other electrified bodies.
Very hot weather is debilitating, and below zero is uncomfortable.
Victory Express to Clover Land, goal of blossoming success, crashed through into zero waters of blankest disappointment,--almost as bitter as those in which she had held up her friend.
Without, beyond the glaring white-washed laboratory, was a February world, equally white, of zero ice and snow.
We were almost suffocated on entering, passing as we did from a temperature of fifty degrees below zero to one seventy-five above.
The thermometer was forty-four degrees below zero when we left the hut, but it was calm, and the moon shone with a splendid light.
But her hopes fell completely, still further below the zero at which they had stood.
At this temperature it is emitting only invisible infra-red energy and has an efficiency of zero as a producer of light.
At each reversal of the current, the current reaches zero value and the arc is virtually extinguished.
For this reason, rents are highest in great cities, lowest in the sparsely settled country, touching zero on lands occupied by nomads.
If he left them, they might get away and send word through the vanished radioman to the Jerry squadrons awaiting the zero hour.
The Wing Commander stiffened and snorted like a Merlin backfiring on a sub-zero morning.
The wood and buds are hardy to a temperature of 47° below zero Fahrenheit, so that wherever the wild bitternut hickory grow, this grafted tree will survive to bear its thin-shelled nuts.
Although the parent tree died the winter I took scions from it, my grafts have proved quite hardy, having received no injury when temperatures as low as 47° below zero have occurred.
Do you know that the thermometer goes down to forty degrees below zero out there in winter?
The thermometer was down to six belowzero this morning.
In this case, care must be taken to see that the indicator is returned to zero when the mechanism is threaded-up.
But the temperature was ten degrees below zero one day at noon, and the next day twenty-four below zero at 9 a.
This descent to zero may fairly warn us that the terms with which we are dealing may not bear precisely the same meaning in all parts of England, or that a small class is apt to be reckoned as forming part of a larger class.
Zero hour will be notified in writing from Australian Corps Headquarters by noon on the day prior to zero.
Aeroplanes will be detailed to transport ammunition from zero plus 2 hours 30 minutes.
Armoured Car Battalion, passing the green line as soon as practicable after Zero plus four hours, and proceeding eastward, following the lifts of our Heavy Artillery bombardment, so as to pass the blue line at or after Zero plus five hours.
Australian Divisions will time their advance so that the leading troops cross the first objective (green line) at zero plus four hours.
There were none who did not count the hours till zero hour, which was fixed for 5.
Tanks will leave the Tank Start Line at such times as will allow them to catch up to the Infantry as the barrage lifts at zero plus three minutes.
From zero hour counter-attack planes will be constantly in the air, with the object of observing hostile concentrations or abnormal movement.
Y/Z night, and from zero minus one hour onward to zero.
A contact aeroplane will fly along the line of the second objective at zero plus 6 hours 30 minutes.
At zero plus three minutes the barrage will commence to advance; lifts will be 100 yards at 2-minute intervals.
From zero plus four hours onwards eastwards from the red line.
The first cycle, covering the entire sky from zero to twenty-four hours of right ascension, has been completed.
Gravity or a spring is used to bring the index to the zero of a divided scale, at which time the plane of the copper ring or band makes an angle of, say, 15 degrees to 20 degrees with the plane of the coil.
Here it will be seen that in the positive primary current descending from m, its maximum, to the zero line, the secondary current has risen from its zero to m¹, its maximum.
In other words, the maxima of the primary or inducing current will no longer be found coincident with the zero points of the secondary currents.
Here the lines of zero current are the horizontal straight lines.
The wavy lines represent the variations of current strength in each conductor, the current in one direction being indicated by that portion of the curve above the zero line, and in the other direction by that portion below it.
