  2. Antenna gain-to-noise-temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_gain-to-noise...

    Antenna gain-to-noise-temperature (G/T) is a figure of merit in the characterization of antenna performance, where G is the antenna gain in decibels at the receive frequency, and T is the equivalent noise temperature of the receiving system in kelvins.

  3. Newton's law of universal gravitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_universal...

    Newton's law of gravitation resembles Coulomb's law of electrical forces, which is used to calculate the magnitude of the electrical force arising between two charged bodies. Both are inverse-square laws , where force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the bodies.

  4. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    The gravitational constant G is a key quantity in Newton's law of universal gravitation.. The gravitational constant is an empirical physical constant involved in the calculation of gravitational effects in Sir Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation and in Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity.

  5. Escape velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_velocity

    Escape speed at a distance d from the center of a spherically symmetric primary body (such as a star or a planet) with mass M is given by the formula [2] [3] = = where: G is the universal gravitational constant (G ≈ 6.67×10 −11 m 3 ·kg −1 ·s −2)

  6. Time–temperature superposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time–temperature...

    From an initial spectral window [ω 1, ω 2] and a series of isotherms in this window, we can calculate the master curves of a material which extends over a broader frequency range. An arbitrary temperature T 0 is taken as a reference for setting the frequency scale (the curve at that temperature undergoes no shift).

  7. Schwarzschild radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius

    The Schwarzschild radius or the gravitational radius is a physical parameter in the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein's field equations that corresponds to the radius defining the event horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole.

  8. Mathematics of general relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_general...

    Most modern approaches to mathematical general relativity begin with the concept of a manifold.More precisely, the basic physical construct representing gravitation — a curved spacetime — is modelled by a four-dimensional, smooth, connected, Lorentzian manifold.

  9. Gravitational acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_acceleration

    In physics, gravitational acceleration is the acceleration of an object in free fall within a vacuum (and thus without experiencing drag).This is the steady gain in speed caused exclusively by gravitational attraction.
