    10 6: mega-(MW) 1.3 × 10 6 W tech: power output of P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft 1.9 × 10 6 W astro: power per square meter potentially received by Earth at the peak of the Sun's red giant phase 2.0 × 10 6 W tech: peak power output of GE's standard wind turbine 2.4 × 10 6 W

  3. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

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

    The centimetre (SI symbol: cm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −2 metres (⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠ m = 0.01 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −2 m and 10 −1 m (1 cm and 1 dm). 1 cm – 10 millimeters; 1 cm – 0.39 inches; 1 cm – edge of a square of area 1 cm 2

  4. Sixth power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixth_power

    In arithmetic and algebra the sixth power of a number n is the result of multiplying six instances of n together. So: n 6 = n × n × n × n × n × n. Sixth powers can be formed by multiplying a number by its fifth power, multiplying the square of a number by its fourth power, by cubing a square, or by squaring a cube. The sequence of sixth ...

  5. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    Power is the rate with respect to time at which work is done; it is the time derivative of work: =, where P is power, W is work, and t is time.. We will now show that the mechanical power generated by a force F on a body moving at the velocity v can be expressed as the product: = =

  6. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    In mathematics, exponentiation, denoted b n, is an operation involving two numbers: the base, b, and the exponent or power, n. [1] When n is a positive integer, exponentiation corresponds to repeated multiplication of the base: that is, b n is the product of multiplying n bases: [1] = ⏟.

  7. Dyne - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyne

    The dyne is defined as "the force required to accelerate a mass of one gram at a rate of one centimetre per second squared". [2] An equivalent definition of the dyne is "that force which, acting for one second, will produce a change of velocity of one centimetre per second in a mass of one gram".

  8. Exponentiation by squaring - Wikipedia

    Yao's method collects in u first those x i that appear to the highest power ⁠ ⁠; in the next round those with power ⁠ ⁠ are collected in u as well etc. The variable y is multiplied ⁠ h − 1 {\displaystyle h-1} ⁠ times with the initial u , ⁠ h − 2 {\displaystyle h-2} ⁠ times with the next highest powers, and so on.

  9. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)

    A newton is defined as 1 kg⋅m/s 2 (it is a named derived unit defined in terms of the SI base units). [1]: 137 One newton is, therefore, the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at the rate of one metre per second squared in the direction of the applied force.
