  2. Infinite switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_switch

    A rotary hand control turns a shaft that is connected within the infinite switch to a cam and follower. At the off position both power line connections are interrupted. At all on positions the manual contacts connect one of the line terminals to the pilot lamp terminal and one of the terminals for the heating element being controlled.

  3. Maze-solving algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze-solving_algorithm

    Traversal using right-hand rule (). One effective rule for traversing mazes is the Hand On Wall Rule, also known as either the left-hand rule or the right-hand rule.If the maze is simply connected, that is, all its walls are connected together or to the maze's outer boundary, then by keeping one hand in contact with one wall of the maze the solver is guaranteed not to get lost and will reach a ...

  4. Five-room puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-room_puzzle

    The solution line must cross over each "wall" exactly once, where "cross over" means to pass completely from one to the other of the two rooms that are separated by the "wall", or from a room to the area outside the drawing. This precludes "crossing" two walls at the same time by drawing the solution line through the corner at which they meet.

  5. Only Connect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Only_Connect

    Each team receives a wall of 16 clues and are given 2 minutes and 30 seconds to sort them into four groups of four connected items. The puzzles are designed to include red herrings and to suggest more connections than actually exist, as some clues appear to fit into more than one category, but there is only one perfect solution for each wall.

  6. Hilbert's paradox of the Grand Hotel - Wikipedia

    In this way all the rooms will be filled by one, and only one, guest. This pairing function can be demonstrated visually by structuring the hotel as a one-room-deep, infinitely tall pyramid. The pyramid's topmost row is a single room: room 1; its second row is rooms 2 and 3; and so on.

  7. Quantum well - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_well

    The simplest model of a quantum well system is the infinite well model. The walls/barriers of the potential well are assumed to be infinite in this model. In reality, the quantum wells are generally of the order of a few hundred millielectronvolts. However, as a first approximation, the infinite well model serves as a simple and useful model ...

  8. Rayleigh problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_problem

    The initial and the no-slip condition on the wall are (,) =, (, >) =, (, >) =, the last condition is due to the fact that the motion at = is not felt at infinity. The flow is only due to the motion of the plate, there is no imposed pressure gradient.

  9. Finite potential well - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_potential_well

    Unlike the infinite potential well, there is a probability associated with the particle being found outside the box. The quantum mechanical interpretation is unlike the classical interpretation, where if the total energy of the particle is less than the potential energy barrier of the walls it cannot be found outside the box.
