  2. Yo-Yo intermittent test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yo-Yo_intermittent_test

    The Yo-Yo intermittent test is aimed at estimating performance in stop-and-go sports like football (soccer), cricket, basketball and the like. It was conceived around the early 1990s by Jens Bangsbo , [ 1 ] a Danish soccer physiologist, then described in a 2008 paper, "The Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test". [ 2 ]

  3. Orders of magnitude (time) - Wikipedia

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

    Metric prefixes are defined spanning 10 −30 to 10 30, 60 decimal orders of magnitude which may be used in conjunction with the metric base unit of second. Metric units of time larger than the second are most commonly seen only in a few scientific contexts such as observational astronomy and materials science, although this depends on the author.

  5. Metric time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_time

    Metric time is the measure of time intervals using the metric system. The modern SI system defines the second as the base unit of time, and forms multiples and submultiples with metric prefixes such as kiloseconds and milliseconds. Other units of time – minute, hour, and day – are accepted for use with SI, but are not part of it

  6. Speed of light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_Light

    For example, in imperial units, the speed of light is approximately 186 282 miles per second, [Note 4] or roughly 1 foot per nanosecond. [ Note 5 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] In branches of physics in which c appears often, such as in relativity, it is common to use systems of natural units of measurement or the geometrized unit system where c = 1 .

    Next, thrust in an inward and upward motion on the diaphragm. This will force air out of the lungs and remove the blockage. Repeat these abdominal thrusts up to five times, the doctor advised.

  9. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    Ordinary frequency is related to angular frequency (symbol ω, with SI unit radian per second) by a factor of 2 π. The period (symbol T) is the interval of time between events, so the period is the reciprocal of the frequency: T = 1/f. [2]
