88 zolotnik Russian silver has the equivalent millesimal fineness of 916[6]. The alloy contains 91.66% pure silver and 8.34% copper or other metals. (The description of the zolotnik is above.) [4] [8] Coin silver has a millesimal fineness of 900. The term "coin silver" was derived from the fact that much of it was made from melting down silver ...
Millesimal fineness is a system of denoting the purity of platinum, gold and silver alloys by parts per thousand of pure metal by mass in the alloy. For example, an alloy containing 75% gold is denoted as "750".
4–8–40–160 kK [clarification needed] on white dwarfs; 30–400 kK on a planetary nebula's asymptotic giant helium star; 36 kK boundary between inner and outer core within Jupiter; 37 kK in proton–electron reactions; 38 kK on Eta Carinae; 46 kK on Wolf–Rayet star R136a1 [10] 50 kK at protostar (core) 54.5 kK on ON2 III(f*) star LH64-16 ...
32-point compass rose. The points of the compass are a set of horizontal, radially arrayed compass directions (or azimuths) used in navigation and cartography.A compass rose is primarily composed of four cardinal directions—north, east, south, and west—each separated by 90 degrees, and secondarily divided by four ordinal (intercardinal) directions—northeast, southeast, southwest, and ...
2,3,4: the heats of air in spring and autumn 4,5,6: the heat of air in summer 6: the heat at midday about the month of July 12: 1: the greatest heat which a thermometer takes up when in contact with the human body 14: 1 + 1 ⁄ 4: the greatest heat of a bath which one can endure for some time when the hand is dipped in and is kept in constant ...
This is a collection of temperature conversion formulas and comparisons among eight different temperature scales, several of which have long been obsolete.. Temperatures on scales that either do not share a numeric zero or are nonlinearly related cannot correctly be mathematically equated (related using the symbol =), and thus temperatures on different scales are more correctly described as ...
Thus the standard consists of a tabulation of values at various altitudes, plus some formulas by which those values were derived. To accommodate the lowest points on Earth, the model starts at a base geopotential altitude of 610 meters (2,000 ft) below sea level, with standard temperature set at 19 °C.
RVSM was implemented in China at 16:00 UTC on 21 November 2007, and in Mongolia at 00:01 UTC on 17 November 2011. Aircraft flying in feet according to the table below will have differences between the metric readout of the onboard avionics and ATC cleared flight level; however, the differences will never be more than thirty metres.
