Louis René édouard Rohan, prince de
Louis René Édouard Rohan, prince de , 1734-1803, French churchman and politician, cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church. Although he succeeded (1779) his uncle as archbishop of Strasbourg, he spent most of his career in Paris. As French ambassador to Vienna (1772) he aroused the dislike of Empress Maria Theresa. In France, his anti-Austrian attitude earned him the hostility of her daughter, the French queen Marie Antoinette. It was apparently in a desire to curry favor with the queen that he became involved in the Affair of the Diamond Necklace . For his inglorious part in this he was acquitted of guilt (1786) but lost his office of grand almoner and was banished from Paris. He was elected to the States-General (1789), refused to sign the Civil Constitution of the Clergy (1791), and emigrated.

Torque is the key: for motors in applications, the boilerplate approach to specification and design will get the system stopped because the motor won't start. Consider voltage, speed, and torque for these special instances, and follow along with the Case Of The Not-So-Centrifugal Pump Curve and the Case Of The Frequent Motor Failure to do some real-life motor-starting sleuthing.
