The **Piedmont** is a plateau area in the Eastern United States. It is located between the Atlantic coastal plain and the main Appalachian Mountains. The plateu goes from New York in the north to Alabama in the south. The **Piedmont Province** is a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian division/ It is made up of the Gettysburg-Newark Lowlands, the Piedmont Upland and the Piedmont Lowlands.
## Boundaries
The Atlantic Seaboard fall line marks the Piedmont's eastern boundary. To the west, it is bounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains. They are the easternmost range of the main Appalachians. The width of the Piedmont varies. It os very narrow above the Delaware River . It is almost  wide in North Carolina.  The Piedmont's area is about .
## Origin of name
The name "Piedmont" comes from the , meaning "foothill". It comes from the Latin "pedemontium", meaning "at the foot of the mountains". This id similar to the name of the Italian region of Piedmont (*Piemonte*).

## Geology 
The Piedmont is mainly an area of relatively low, rolling hills. They have a height above sea level between 200 feet (50 m) to 1,000 feet (300 m). Its geology is complex. THere are many rock formations of different materials and ages. The Piedmont is the remains of several old mountain chains. Geologists say at least five separate events led to sediment being depositted. These include the Grenville orogeny  and the Appalachian orogeny. The last major event in the history of the Piedmont was the break-up of Pangaea. This was when North America and Africa began to separate. 

## Soils and farming 
Piedmont soils are generally clay-like (Ultisols). They are moderately fertile. In some areas, they have suffered from erosion . They have also been farmed heavily. This is mostly in the South where cotton was the main crop. In the central Piedmont region of North Carolina and Virginia, tobacco is the main crop. In the north region, the land is used for many different things. These include  orchards, dairying, and general farming.

## Cities 
Many major cities are on the Atlantic Seaboard fall line, the eastern boundary of the Piedmont. Within the Piedmont area, there are many large urban areas. The largest is the Philadelphia metropolitan area in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The Piedmont cuts Maryland in half, It covers the Baltimore–Washington metropolitan area. In Virginia, the Greater Richmond metropolitan area is the largest. In North Carolina, the Piedmont Crescent includes several areas. These include the Charlotte metropolitan area, the Piedmont Triad, and the Research Triangle.

496 (number)

**496** (**four hundred [and] ninety-six**) is a natural number. It is after 495 and before 497.

## In mathematics
496 is the third perfect number. 496 is also a harmonic divisor number. This is because the number of proper divisors of 496 divided by the sum of the reciprocals of its divisors, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 31, 62, 124, 248 and 496 (the harmonic mean) is an integer.

496 is also a triangular number, hexagonal number and a centered nonagonal number. It is also the largest happy number less than 500.

There is no solution to the equation φ(*x*) = 496. This means that 496 is a nontotient.

The religious population mainly in Nardaran and a number of other villages and regions celebrate the Day of Ashura. Religious minorities like Orthodox Christians and Jews also celebrate notable religious days of their faith. Despite the fact that the holiday Novruz takes its roots from the religion of Zoroastrianism, almost all Azerbaijanis celebrates it as a holiday of spring.

## Etymology 
The Meitei female given name "Nganu Leima" (ꯉꯥꯅꯨ ꯂꯩꯃ) is made up of two component words. The two words are "Nganu" (ꯉꯥꯅꯨ) and "Leima" (ꯂꯩꯃ). In Meitei, "Nganu" (ꯉꯥꯅꯨ) means duck. The word "Leima" (ꯂꯩꯃ) is further made up of two component words, "Lei" (ꯂꯩ) and "Ma" (ꯃ). "Lei" (ꯂꯩ) means land or earth. "Ma" (ꯃ) means "mother". Literally, "Leima" (ꯂꯩꯃ) can be translated as "Land Mother" or "Mother Earth". But in general context, "Leima" (ꯂꯩꯃ) means a queen or a mistress or a lady.

## Description 
Goddess Nganu Leima is described as the mistress of all the ducks and the waterfowls of the world. At any moment, she could summon all the ducks and the waterfowls at any place she wishes. She is one of the daughters of God Salailen (alias Soraren).

Voiced alveolar lateral fricative

The **voiced alveolar lateral fricative** is a type of consonant. Some spoken languages use it. The letter for this sound in the International Phonetic Alphabet is  (sometimes called *lezh*). The X-SAMPA symbol for this sound is `K\`. The voiced alveolar lateral fricative is not used in English.

## Features 
## Examples 
### Dental or denti-alveolar
### Alveolar
A pharyngealized voiced alveolar lateral fricative  is reconstructed to be the ancient Classical Arabic pronunciation of the Arabic letter . (This means that linguists do not know how the letter was actually pronounced. However, by looking at modern languages, they think that this is how it was pronounced in the ancient language.) Today, the letter is pronounced in Modern Standard Arabic as a pharyngealized voiced coronal stop. This sound can be either alveolar  or denti-alveolar .

## Notation
In 1938, a letter shaped similarly to heng  was approved as the official IPA letter for this sound. It replaced . However, the International Phonetic Association also suggested that a compromise between the two letters could be used if the author wanted. This compromise letter was included in the 1949 *Principles of the International Phonetic Association* and the IPA charts of that year. Although the International Phonetic Association said to use this letter, some authors still used  from the 1960s to the 1980s. Later, this new letter was replaced by  at the 1989 Kiel Convention.

## Dental
The **voiced dental lateral fricative** is a type of consonant. The letter for this sound in the International Phonetic Alphabet is  and the equivalent X-SAMPA symbol for this sound is `K\_`. It is not in English.

The voiced dental lateral fricative is distinct from the voiced alveolar lateral fricative.

## Examples 
It unlikely occurs in languages, but corresponds to .

Equation of state

and matrices are often used in equations of state. ]]
 on a house in Leiden. The text can be translated as "The structure of the molecules dictates the interaction between liquid and gas."]]
In physics, chemistry and thermodynamics, **equations of state** are used to describe the state a dynamical system is in. .  Equations of state are commonly used to describe the state of gases and fluids. In the real world, equations of state are approximations. They can be quite complex to write down, and usually, they are solved using numerical methods.
## Variables
There are certain variables such as pressure, volume, or temperature, that can be used to describe such a system. So in its simplest form, an equation of state is a function, that takes these dependent variables as input, the state can then be as simple as saying that in its current state, the function has the numerical value zero:

f(p, V, T) = 0

where p ist the pressure, V is the volume, and T is the temperature.

Tomaso Albinoni

**Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni** (8 June 1671 – 17 January 1751) was a Venetian composer. He wrote operas and instrumental music. He is best remembered as the composer of a work called "Adagio in G Minor". Albinoni did not actually write the Adagio.

## Life
Albinoni was born in Venice. He learned to play the violin and to sing. It is not known who his teachers are. His first opera, *Zenobia, regina de Palmireni*, was performed in Venice in 1694.

In 1705, he married Margherita Rimondi, a soprano singer. 

He became famous and he performed his operas in many Italian cities, including Venice, Genoa, Bologna, Mantua, Udine, Piacenza, and Naples. He also wrote and published instrumental music during this time. Albinoni did not try to find a job in a church or a court. He remained an independent composer and published music on his own.

He retired from writing music after 1741, and died in Venice in 1751.

## Music
Most of Albinoni's operas are lost. This is because he did not publish his operas during his life. His instrumental music has survived. Nine collections of instrumental music were published. Because of this, he is better known for writing instrumental music today. He is the first Italian composer to publish an oboe concerto.

He was known by Johann Sebastian Bach, who wrote at least two fugues based on themes by Albinoni.
