[ 1] Marco Odermatt of Switzerland won the event. Žan Kranjec of Slovenia won the silver medal, and Mathieu Faivre of France bronze.
[1] [2] as a ratio of one part rise to so many parts run. For example, a slope that has a rise of 5 feet for every 1000 feet of run would have a slope ratio of 1 in 200. (The word "in" is normally used rather than the mathematical ratio notation of "1:200".) This is generally the method used to describe railway grades in Australia and the UK.
N scale. N scale is a popular model railway scale. [ 1] Depending upon the manufacturer (or country), the scale ranges from 1:148 to 1:160. Effectively the scale is 1:159, 9 mm to 1,435 mm ( 4 ft in ), which is the width of standard gauge railway. However the scale may vary to simulate wide or narrow gauge rail.
Coloured pitches are used to distinguish the field of play (green) from the run-off (red). The hockey pitch is rectangular in shape. The longer perimeter edges are called the side line, the opposing shorter edges are referred to as the back line and the portion of this between the goal posts is known as the goal line The side line must measure 91.40 m (100 yd) and the back line should measure ...

Since opening in 1959, it has been the home of the Daytona 500, the most prestigious race in NASCAR as well as its season opening event.
v. t. e. The Universal Transverse Mercator ( UTM) is a map projection system for assigning coordinates to locations on the surface of the Earth. Like the traditional method of latitude and longitude, it is a horizontal position representation, which means it ignores altitude and treats the earth surface as a perfect ellipsoid.
Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.
The longest tournament chess game (in terms of moves) ever to be played was Nikolić–Arsović, Belgrade 1989, which lasted for 269 moves and took 20 hours and 15 minutes to complete a drawn game. [1] [2] [failed verification] At the time this game was played, FIDE had modified the fifty-move rule to allow 100 moves to be played without a ...
