Example: David Cameron's point-blank refusal to fire him shows how out of touch his government is.» fuera de onda con los tiempos modernos = out of keeping with the times ; out of tune with the times .
Example: The EU ban on arms sales to China is political discrimination against China and out of keeping with the times. Example: Political parties who want lower tax no longer seem out of tune with the times.» líneas de transmisión por onda luminosa = light-wave transmission lines .
Example: Two of the most important new media are satellite links and optic fibre, or lightwave transmission lines.» longitud de onda = wavelength .
Example: The great importance of standardizing wavelengths in the field of spectrometry should be stressed.» onda acústica = acoustic wave ; sound wave .
Example: The telephone is an example of a terminal, converting the acoustic waves of speech into a fluctuating electrical signal, and the signal back to audible form. Example: She then went on to demonstrate that a sound wave looks like a slinky being pushed back and forth.» onda cerebral = brain wave .
Example: Someone in a trance may still be experiencing very intense brain waves and intellectual activity, but the individual is also clearly not entirely awake.» onda corta = short wave .
Example: This frequency band, also known as short wave, is one of the suitable bands for long distance communication.» onda de choque = shockwave .
Example: In a true detonation, a shockwave passess through a mass destabilizing it and causing it to disintegrate.» onda de radio = radio wave .
Example: Radio waves are utilized for transmission between aerials (antennas), or radiation sources and sensors.» onda electromagnética = electromagnetic wave .
Example: The carrier may be paper, electromagnetic waves, magnetic tape, etc..» onda expansiva = shockwave .
Example: In a true detonation, a shockwave passess through a mass destabilizing it and causing it to disintegrate.» onda longitudinal = longitudinal wave .
Example: There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves.» onda luminosa = light wave .
Example: Additionally, light waves can be used for the direct transmission of signals.» onda mecánica = mechanical wave .
Example: There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves.» onda sonora = sound wave .
Example: She then went on to demonstrate that a sound wave looks like a slinky being pushed back and forth.» onda subportadora = subcarrier .
Example: This article discusses the use of diskettes, Bernoulli removable disc cartridges, CD-ROM's, modems using dial up phone lines, leased phone lines, satellites and frequency modulated (FM) subcarriers.» onda transversal = transverse wave .
