Historical justifications for its use Many programmes produced by the BBC in PAL in the 60s and 70s were converted to NTSC for distribution to non 576i 625 line markets. For many reasons, including the cost of video tape at the time, the original PAL master was often overwritten with new material or was simply discarded. This often left the NTSC version as the only remaining copy. PAL NTSC conversion c. 1968 PAL and NTSC have a differing number of lines of resolution and also use a different field rate.

Cleanup date November 2009 A conversion factor changes something to a different version or form. A factor is something that brings results or a cause, while conversion is an action of changing the version of a thing. In mathematics , specifically algebra , a conversion factor is used to convert a measured quantity to a different unit of measure without changing the relative amount. To accomplish this, a ratio fraction is established that equals one 1 . In the ratio, the conversion factor is a multiplier that, when applied to the larger unit, converts the larger unit into the smaller unit, by multiplication with the measured amount. 24 hrs 1 day 1 or 43,560 square feet 1 acre 1 3 days 3 24 hours 72 hours conversion factor is 24 Note If a b, then a b 1 and b a 1 Days are converted, to hours, by multiplying the days by the conversion factor as 24. The conversion can be reversed by dividing, the hours, by 24 to get days however, the reciprocal 1 24 could be considered the reverse conversion factor for an hours to days conversion, where 1 24 0.0416666666667. Hence, the term conversion factor is the multiplier which yields the result, not a divisor from that viewpoint. To yield hours, the conversion factor is 24, not 1 24, so hours days 24 multiplying by the factor . Common conversion factors for water and wastewater For water treatment or reservoir s, there are several conversion factors which are commonly used Since 1 day 24 hours 1440 minutes, therefore 15 minutes 1 day 1440 minutes 15 1440 0.010416667 0.01 days. 1 million gallons per day MGD 3.069 acre feet per day ac ft day 1.55 cubic feet per second cfs 694 gallons per minute gpm 1 gallon 3785 milliliters 3.785 liters 8.34 pounds of water.

Ref improve section date August 2011 Criminal conversion is the crime of exerting unauthorized use or control of someone else s property . It differs from theft in that it does not include the element of intending to deprive the owner of the possession of that property. As such, it is a lesser included offense of the crime of theft. Criminal conversion specifies a type of conversion law conversion in that it involves criminal law , not Civil law common law civil law . An example might be tapping someone s secured wireless LAN or public utility line which could also amount to theft of services . Another example might be taking a joy ride in a car, never intending to keep it from the owner. Some places have defined such conduct as a specific type of theft, perhaps with a modified penalty. Note that the unauthorized use may begin after a period of authorized use, where, for example, a person rents a car then keeps it for an extra week without permission from the rental company. Another common example occurs when a person fails to report finding lost goods including animals , intending only to keep them until someone asks for their return. When the intent becomes one of keeping the property, it is a theft.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Conversion syndrome describes a condition in which physical symptoms arise for which there is no clear explanation. The term stems from the 19th century European conception of hysteria, which itself can be traced back to Ancient Egypt ian papyrus papyri from the 16th century BC. Psychiatrist s now separate out conversion disorder , in which the complaints are neurologic , from similar conditions in which the complaints can be about such things as pain . Patients with conversion and hysteria led Sigmund Freud to his theories on the Unconscious mind unconscious and the talking cure , and the same patient population intrigued such physicians as Pierre Janet , Jean Martin Charcot J. M. Charcot , and Josef Breuer . Freud theorized that unacceptable emotions led to psychological conflict that was then converted into physical symptoms. Much recent work has been done to identify the underlying causes of the somatoform disorders as well as to better understand why conversion and hysteria appear more commonly in women. Current theoreticians tend to believe that there is no single reason that people tend to Psychosomatic illness somatize , or use their bodies to express emotional issues.

Value conversion is the act of converting one type of value or financial instrument into another type of negotiable value. In the securities profession the definition of conversion value is very narrowly defined as the positive difference between the market price of a convertible security and the price at which it is convertible. The larger topic of Value conversion is relevant to the managing of intangible assets or intellectual capital . It refers to the act of transforming financial to non financial value or an intangible asset into a financial asset. Intangible asset management has largely focused on valuation of intangible assets like trying to assign a financial value to an asset such as reputation.
