A second type of proof in geometry is a proof by or indirect proof?
contradiction
What is the magnetic permeability of nylon?
Well, nylon is a special material that isn't typically known for its magnetic properties. It's like a happy little cloud floating in the sky, bringing softness and comfort. So, while nylon may not have a significant magnetic permeability, it sure does have a way of making us feel cozy and content.
Second type of proof in geometry is a proof by?
I am not really sure what you are asking but there are 3 types of proofs in geometry a flow proof, a 2-collumn proof, and a paragraph proof.

One US gallon equates to about 3.785 liters.
Is PVC gasoline proof?
no.
Is nylon ripstop flame resistant?

Why are kites made of nylon?
Nylon is a material that can handle weater. Nylons fibers are tightly woven to one another, making a strong wind breaker affect. As wind proof as paper, as strong as cotton, but as light as tissue paper. The perfect material for a kite.
Is a nylon jacket wind proof?
It usually is, if the nylon is tightly woven, regardless of whether or not it has an additional coating (usually of polyvinylchoride or polyurethane) to make the garment waterproof or water resistant. It is the tightness of the fabric construction (weaving or knitting) which determines wind resistance. Note that nylon by itself (i.e. uncoated) is NOT water resistant at all---nylon (polyamide) actually absorbs water and the fibers weaken, whereas cotton INCREASES in strength when it becomes wet. In theory, you could have a loosely knit or woven nylon fabric---e.g., a mesh or pique knit---which is NOT wind resistant at all.
What was the purpose of the us rationing items such as gasoline food nylon and rubber during world war ii?
