  2. Carlyle circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlyle_circle

    The defining property of the Carlyle circle can be established thus: the equation of the circle having the line segment AB as diameter is x(x − s) + (y − 1)(y − p) = 0. The abscissas of the points where the circle intersects the x-axis are the roots of the equation (obtained by setting y = 0 in the equation of the circle)

  3. Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle

    where a is the radius of the circle, (,) are the polar coordinates of a generic point on the circle, and (,) are the polar coordinates of the centre of the circle (i.e., r 0 is the distance from the origin to the centre of the circle, and φ is the anticlockwise angle from the positive x axis to the line connecting the origin to the centre of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quizlet

    Quizlet was founded in October 2005 by Andrew Sutherland, who at the time was a 15-year old student, [2] and released to the public in January 2007. [3] Quizlet's primary products include digital flash cards, matching games, practice electronic assessments, and live quizzes. In 2017, 1 in 2 high school students used Quizlet. [4]

    The elements of a polytope can be considered according to either their own dimensionality or how many dimensions "down" they are from the body.

  6. Generalised circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalised_circle

    A circle is the set of points in a plane that lie at radius from a center point . (,) = {:}In the complex plane, is a complex number and is a set of complex numbers. Using the property that a complex number multiplied by its conjugate is the square of its modulus (its Euclidean distance from the origin), an implicit equation for is:

  7. Matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter

    In the early universe, it is thought that matter and antimatter were equally represented, and the disappearance of antimatter requires an asymmetry in physical laws called CP (charge–parity) symmetry violation, which can be obtained from the Standard Model, [51] but at this time the apparent asymmetry of matter and antimatter in the visible ...

  8. Matter wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_wave

    Collective matter waves are used to model phenomena in solid state physics; standing matter waves are used in molecular chemistry. Matter wave concepts are widely used in the study of materials where different wavelength and interaction characteristics of electrons, neutrons, and atoms are leveraged for advanced microscopy and diffraction ...

  9. Dark matter halo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter_halo

    The presence of dark matter (DM) in the halo is inferred from its gravitational effect on a spiral galaxy's rotation curve.Without large amounts of mass throughout the (roughly spherical) halo, the rotational velocity of the galaxy would decrease at large distances from the galactic center, just as the orbital speeds of the outer planets decrease with distance from the Sun.
