1 1/x has oscillation â at x = 0, and oscillation 0 at other finite x and at ââ and 2  +â. sin (1/x) (the topologist's sine curve) has oscillation 2 at x = 0, and 0 elsewhere. 3  sin x has oscillation 0 at every finite x, and 2 at ââ and  +â. The sequence 1, â1, 1, â1, 1, â1, ... has oscillation 2.
An herbicide is a chemical used to kill or inhibit the growth of weeds and other unwanted plant pests. There are two kinds of herbicides. Species-specific herbicides are designed to kill a specific kind of plant only, leaving other desirable plants unharmed.hen should you use an herbicide? An herbicide is appropriate any time that you have pest plants or weeds that are competing with desired plants or crops for space, water, light, and nutrients. They are often used in lawn and garden care to achieve a desired aesthetic effect.
Recently, the term organic has come to imply products used in organic farming. Under this definition, an organic herbicide is one that can be used in a farming enterprise that has been classified as organic. Commercially sold organic herbicides are expensive and may not be affordable for commercial farming. Linuron is a nonselective herbicide used in the control of grasses and broadleaf weeds. 2  It works by inhibiting photosynthesis. 3  MCPA (2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid) is a phenoxy herbicide selective for broadleaf plants and widely used in cereals and pasture.
