  2. Queueing theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queueing_theory

    The main queueing models that can be used are the single-server waiting line system and the multiple-server waiting line system, which are discussed further below. These models can be further differentiated depending on whether service times are constant or undefined, the queue length is finite, the calling population is finite, etc. [ 5 ]

  3. Mean sojourn time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_sojourn_time

    The mean sojourn time (or sometimes mean waiting time) for an object in a dynamical system is the amount of time an object is expected to spend in a system before leaving the system permanently. This concept is widely used in various fields, including physics, chemistry, and stochastic processes, to study the behavior of systems over time.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_2

    Advanced Placement (AP) Physics 2 is a year-long introductory physics course administered by the College Board as part of its Advanced Placement program. It is intended to proxy a second-semester algebra-based university course in thermodynamics, electromagnetism, optics, and modern physics. [1]

  6. AP Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics

    AP Physics C: Mechanics and AP Physics 1 are both introductory college-level courses in mechanics, with the former recognized by more universities. [1] The AP Physics C: Mechanics exam includes a combination of conceptual questions, algebra-based questions, and calculus-based questions, while the AP Physics 1 exam includes only conceptual and algebra-based questions.

  7. Retarded time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarded_time

    Position vectors r and r′ used in the calculation. Retarded time t r or t′ is calculated with a "speed-distance-time" calculation for EM fields.. If the EM field is radiated at position vector r′ (within the source charge distribution), and an observer at position r measures the EM field at time t, the time delay for the field to travel from the charge distribution to the observer is |r ...

  9. AP Physics 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_1

    AP Physics 1 is an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course that includes mechanics topics such as motion, fluids, force, momentum, energy, harmonic motion, and rotation. The College Board published a curriculum framework that includes eight big ideas on which AP Physics 1 is based.
