You might see a player's OBP (on base percentage) lower than their batting average for a game or two but there is virtually no chance that it would happen over an entire season as a player would have to have an incredibly higher number of sacrifice flies than total of (walks + hit by pitch).
To review ...
Batting average is calculated as (hits / at bats).
OBP is calculated as (hits + walks + hit by pitch) / (at bats + walks + hit by pitch + sacrifice flies).
Example 1: A player has played 2 games and has 8 at bats, 2 hits, 0 walks, 0 hit by pitch, and 1 sacrifice fly.
Batting average is .250 (2 / 8).
OBP is .222 (2 + 0 + 0) / (8 + 0 + 0 + 1).
Example 2: A player has played an entire season and has 500 at bats, 150 hits, 50 walks, and 5 hit by pitch.
Batting average is .300 (150 / 500).
For the OBP to be lower than the batting average, the player would need 129 sacrifice flies ...
(150 + 50 + 5) / (500 + 50 + 5 + 129) = .2997.
Other Pure Breed. You have Light opb's and Dark opb's.
Opus Bank (OPB) had its IPO in 2014.
As of July 2014, the market cap for Opus Bank (OPB) is $833,645,567.91.
Ba, because it is lower on the periodic table
Barium (Ba) is larger than Beryllium (Be) because as you move down a group on the periodic table, the atomic size increases. Barium is in a lower group than Beryllium and therefore has a larger atomic size.
The symbol for Opus Bank in NASDAQ is: OPB.
because it lower than Ba as you go down ionization energy increases
You can prove this just from knowing that the three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees. Label the ends of the arc A and B, the circle's centre O and the "any other point" P. We want to show that angle APB is half of angle AOB. (This uses the notation where you write three letters XYZ to mean the angle formed between straight lines XY and YZ). Consider the triangle formed by O, B and P. The lengths OB and OP are the same (the radius of the circle). This means that the triangle is isosceles and angles OPB and OBP are the same. Since POB + OPB + OBP = 180 degrees and OPB = OBP we have POB + 2 * OPB = 180 With the same working, the triangle formed by O, A and P gives us POA + 2 * OPA = 180 Subtract these two equations: (POB - POA) + 2 * (OPB - OPA) = 180 - 180 = 0 Rearrange: 2 * (OPB - OPA) = POA - POB If you draw a diagram you will see that OPB - OPA = APB and POA - POB = AOB so we have 2 * APB = AOB as required.
Papiss Cisse is better than Demba Ba.
Ba has a larger atomic radius than Mg because Ba has more energy levels and electrons than Mg, leading to increased electron-electron repulsion which pushes the outer electrons further apart. This results in a larger atomic radius for Ba compared to Mg.
Barium (Ba) would be more reactive than strontium (Sr) because barium is located further down the Group 2 elements in the periodic table. As you move down the Group, the reactivity of the elements tends to increase due to the larger atomic size and lower ionization energy, making barium more reactive than strontium.
No, it is smaller because if you rounded 0.09 to the nearest 0.1, you would get 0.1, and another reason you can say it is smaller is because if you put it in fractional terms, 0.09 would look like9/100, but with 0.1, it would be 10/100, so from that, you can hopefully and clearly see that 0.09 is SMALLER that 0.1
