  2. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    Power in mechanical systems is the combination of forces and movement. In particular, power is the product of a force on an object and the object's velocity, or the product of a torque on a shaft and the shaft's angular velocity. Mechanical power is also described as the time derivative of work.

  3. Power of a point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_a_point

    Laguerre defined the power of a point P with respect to an algebraic curve of degree n to be the sum of the distances from the point to the intersections of a circle through the point with the curve, divided by the nth power of the diameter d. Laguerre showed that this number is independent of the diameter (Laguerre 1905).

  4. Orders of magnitude (power) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(power)

    tech: the power the Z machine reaches in 1 billionth of a second when it is fired [citation needed] 3 × 10 14: weather: Hurricane Katrina's rate of release of latent heat energy into the air. [48] 3 × 10 14: tech: power reached by the extremely high-power Hercules laser from the University of Michigan. [citation needed] 4.6 × 10 14

  5. Passive sign convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_sign_convention

    Illustration of the "reference directions" of the current (), voltage (), and power () variables used in the passive sign convention.If positive current is defined as flowing into the device terminal which is defined to be positive voltage, then positive power (big arrow) given by the equation = represents electric power flowing into the device, and negative power represents power flowing out.

  6. Intensity (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensity_(physics)

    In physics and many other areas of science and engineering the intensity or flux of radiant energy is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy. [a] In the SI system, it has units watts per square metre (W/m 2), or kg⋅s −3 in base units.

  7. AC power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power

    The portion of instantaneous power that, averaged over a complete cycle of the AC waveform, results in net transfer of energy in one direction is known as instantaneous active power, and its time average is known as active power or real power.

  8. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    Two to the power of n, written as 2 n, is the number of values in which the bits in a binary word of length n can be set, where each bit is either of two values. A word, interpreted as representing an integer in a range starting at zero, referred to as an "unsigned integer", can represent values from 0 (000...000 2) to 2 n − 1 (111...111 2) inclusively.

  9. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    In electrical engineering, the power factor of an AC power system is defined as the ratio of the real power absorbed by the load to the apparent power flowing in the circuit. . Real power is the average of the instantaneous product of voltage and current and represents the capacity of the electricity for performing
