  2. Double-click - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-click

    The maximum delay required for two consecutive clicks to be interpreted as a double-click is not standardized. According to Microsoft's MSDN website, the default timing in Windows is 500 ms (half a second). [2] The double-click time is also used as a basis for other timed actions. The double-click timing delay can usually be configured by the user.

    Here, a scooter is countersteered to turn left. When countersteering to turn right, the following is performed: [5] [6] A torque on the handlebars to the left is applied. The front wheel will then rotate about the steering axis to the left and the tire will generate forces in the contact patch to the left. The machine as a whole steers to the left.

    A relative afferent pupillary defect ( RAPD ), also known as a Marcus Gunn pupil, is a medical sign observed during the swinging-flashlight test [ 1] whereupon the patient's pupils dilate when a bright light is swung from the unaffected eye to the affected eye.

    Double clicking refers to clicking and releasing a button (often the primary one, usually the left button) twice. Software recognizes both clicks, and if the second occurs within a short time, the action is recognised as a double click.

  6. Engine balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_balance

    Engine balance. Engine balance refers to how the inertial forces produced by moving parts in an internal combustion engine or steam engine are neutralised with counterweights and balance shafts, to prevent unpleasant and potentially damaging vibration. The strongest inertial forces occur at crankshaft speed (first-order forces) and balance is ...

    Screenshot of the UTC clock from time.gov during the leap second on 31 December 2016.. A leap second is a one-second adjustment that is occasionally applied to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), to accommodate the difference between precise time (International Atomic Time (TAI), as measured by atomic clocks) and imprecise observed solar time (), which varies due to irregularities and long-term ...

  8. Interaural time difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interaural_time_difference

    The interaural time difference (or ITD) when concerning humans or animals, is the difference in arrival time of a sound between two ears. It is important in the localization of sounds, as it provides a cue to the direction or angle of the sound source from the head. If a signal arrives at the head from one side, the signal has further to travel ...

    Left hands make up over 90% of the artwork, demonstrating the prevalence of right-handedness. [ 1] A female student writes with her left hand. In human biology, handedness is an individual's preferential use of one hand, known as the dominant hand, due to it being stronger, faster or more dextrous. The other hand, comparatively often the weaker ...
