  2. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    Illustration of uniform compression. The bulk modulus (or or ) of a substance is a measure of the resistance of a substance to bulk compression.It is defined as the ratio of the infinitesimal pressure increase to the resulting relative decrease of the volume.

  3. Refractive index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_index

    For air, n - 1 is proportional to the density of the gas as long as the chemical composition does not change. [51] This means that it is also proportional to the pressure and inversely proportional to the temperature for ideal gases. For liquids the same observation can be made as for gases, for instance, the refractive index in alkanes ...

  4. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    They all travel through vacuum at the same speed (the speed of light), giving them wavelengths inversely proportional to their frequencies. c = f λ , {\displaystyle \displaystyle c=f\lambda ,} where c is the speed of light ( c in vacuum or less in other media), f is the frequency and λ is the wavelength.

  5. Proportionality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportionality_(mathematics)

    The variable y is directly proportional to the variable x with proportionality constant ~0.6. The variable y is inversely proportional to the variable x with proportionality constant 1. In mathematics, two sequences of numbers, often experimental data, are proportional or directly proportional if their corresponding elements have a constant ratio.

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

    In the case of degenerate energy levels, we can write the partition function in terms of the contribution from energy levels (indexed by j) as follows: =, where g j is the degeneracy factor, or number of quantum states s that have the same energy level defined by E j = E s.

    On a single-step or immediate-execution calculator, the user presses a key for each operation, calculating all the intermediate results, before the final value is shown. [1] [2] [3] On an expression or formula calculator, one types in an expression and then presses a key, such as "=" or "Enter", to evaluate the expression.
