Solar to sound effects

Solar to Solid friction
Solar. Of or pertaining to sun; oper­ating by the heat or light of the sun, as a mechanism.
Solar battery. A device for convert­ing solar energy into electricity by means of photo-voltaic cells.
Solar constant. The average rate at which solar energy is received from the sun by the earth, equal to 1.94 small calories per minute per square centimeter of area perPen­dicular to the sun's rays.
Solar engine. (Mech, Engin.) Engine operated by heat generated by the sun shining on large areas of glass; not extensively used.
Solarium. (Arch.) A' glassed-in sun­ room. Solarize. To reverse an image par­tially, from negative to positive, by exposure to light during deve­lopment.
Solar system. The sun together with all the planets sand other bodies that revolve 'around it.
Solder. (Metal.) An alloy used for joining metals together under heat. Solder is usually an alloy of equal parts oflead and tin. Melting point about 188 deg. C., 370.4°F.
Soldering. (Mech.) The uniting un­der proper heat, of pieces of metal by means of a dissimilar metal or alloy.

Soldering copper. (Mech.) A tool, also called soldering iron, used for ap­plying heat to melt the solder and heat up the metals that are to be joined by soldering. Soldering iron. An instrument for melting and applying solder.
Soldier course. (Masonry) A course ' in which the bricks stand on end.
Sole. (Arch.) A foot piece of rest such as would be laid on top of a subfloor to carry studding.
Solenoid. (Elec.) An electromagnetic helix. A system of equal circular currents flowing in uniform direc­tion about a single straight or curved axis.
Solenoid relay. (Auto. Elec.) The switch used to complete the start­ing motor circuit, operated by a push button on the dash.
Sole plate. (Engin.) A foundation plate to which a piece of machin­ery is bolted.
Solid bearing. (Mach.).A one-piece rigid bearing. Its use is limited as it must be slipped over the end of the shaft which it is to support. When solid bearings are pressed into the parts to which. they are applied they are called bushings.
Solid friction. (Mech.) The friction which results when the surface of

Solidity to sound effects one solid body is moved across the surface of another solid body.
Solidity. (Aero.) The ratio of the total blade area of a rotor to the area of the disk swept by the blades.
SoHd matter. (Print.) Type matter without leads or slugs between the lines. SoHd-sta~ Circuits using semi-con­ductors, e.g. transistors and inte­grated circuits (ICs). ­
Solo. (Aero.) Flight, when the opera­tor of an airplane is unaccompa­nied or when the operation of the airplane is under the operators complete command. A feature of many mixing consoles that allows one input signal, one bus, or a combination of "soloed"signals to be monitored exclusive of all other signals - without disturbing the main output mix. For exaple, in the middle of a show with an 18 in/2 out console, an engineer might listen to one ~icrophOen (perhaps to check for a problem, to see what it is picking up, or adjust the input position's (EQ). He merely en­gages that input position's solo button - the sound reinforcement and/or tape-recorder feeds are not affected. Soluble. Capable of being dissolved in a fluid.
Solute. (Chern.) The material which .passes into solution when mixed with a solvent. (SEE SOLUTION.) Solution.. (Chern.) A clear mixture of two or more substances in which neither separates on standing.
Solvent. (Chem.)A substance used to dissolve another substance, as the . water in a solution of salt in water.
Sonar. Equipment for detecting ob­jects under water by sending out sound waves and receiving an echo.
Sone. Unit of subjective loudness magnitude.. It takes a level of 40 phons as equal to one sone, two sone corresponding to twice the loudness, etc. .
Sinic. Pertaining to a speed equal to that of sound in air at the same height above sea level.
Sonic barrier. Sound barrier.
Sonic boom. A loud noise caused by the shock wave generated by an object, as an aircraft, moving su­personic speed. Soot. Finely divided carbon.
Sorts. (Print.) Characters or type con­sidered as separate elements in a font.
Sounding balloon. (Aero.) A small balloon used to send up a metero­graph. Sound. The sensation produced by stimulation of the organs of hear­ing by vibrations transmitted through the air of another medium.
Sound barrier. A hypothetical bar­rier to flight beyond the speed of sound, so postulated because air­craft undergo an abruptly increas­ing drag force when travelling near the speed of sound. Sound box. A chamber in a musical instrument, as the body of violin, for increasing the sonority of its tone. Sound effect. Any sound, other than
