TheDraftReview - POWER FORWARD (232 words)
Power forwards play a role similar to that of center in what is called the "post" or "low blocks".
Power forwards can be imposing presences on defense, but they usually defer to the center in terms of blocking shots and general intimidation.
In the NBA, a typical power forward is between 6'8" and 7'0" (2.03 to 2.13 m) in height and 230 to 260 pounds (105 to 120 kg) in weight, and is often asked to play center in specific game situations or when a particular team lacks a taller player.
Power flow on transmission lines (1176 words)
The ratio of return power to forward power is therefore the (modulus of gamma) squared.
Calculate the peak voltages in the forward and backward wave, and by adding and subtracting these determine the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) which is the ratio of peak ac voltage on the line to minimum ac voltage on the line as we move along the line.
The peak voltage in the forward wave is sqrt(2) times 25 or 35.36 volts; the peak voltage in the backward wave is sqrt(2) times 11.72 or 16.57 volts.
