  2. Sound transmission class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_transmission_class

    Light-gauge (25-gauge or lighter) provides better sound isolation than 16-20-gauge steel, and noticeably better performance than wood studs. [21] When heavy gauge steel or wood studs are spaced 16 inches (410 mm) on center, additional resonances form which further lower the sound isolation performance of a partition.

  3. Composite number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_number

    Every composite number can be written as the product of two or more (not necessarily distinct) primes. [2] For example, the composite number 299 can be written as 13 × 23, and the composite number 360 can be written as 2 3 × 3 2 × 5; furthermore, this representation is unique up to the order of the factors.

  4. Highly composite number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highly_composite_number

    For example, 6 is highly composite because d(6)=4 and d(n)=1,2,2,3,2 for n=1,2,3,4,5 respectively. A related concept is that of a largely composite number , a positive integer that has at least as many divisors as all smaller positive integers.

    In number theory, a superior highly composite number is a natural number which, ... 8 5040: 2 4 ⋅ 3 2 ⋅ 5 ⋅ 7 : 4,2,1,1 60 2 2 ⋅ 6 ⋅ 210 : 9 55440:

  6. Framing (construction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framing_(construction)

    Studs usually consist of 1 + 1 ⁄ 2-by-3 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (38 mm × 89 mm) or 1 + 1 ⁄ 2-by-5 + 1 ⁄ 2-inch (38 mm × 140 mm) lumber and are commonly spaced at 16 inches (410 mm) on center. This spacing may be changed to 12 or 24 inches (300 or 610 mm) on center depending on the load and the limitations imposed by the type and thickness of the ...

  7. Unified numbering system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_numbering_system

    It consists of a prefix letter and five digits designating a material composition. For example, a prefix of S indicates stainless steel alloys, C indicates copper, brass, or bronze alloys, T indicates tool steels, and so on. The first 3 digits often match older 3-digit numbering systems, while the last 2 digits indicate more modern variations.

  8. Jacobi symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_symbol

    So if it is unknown whether a number n is prime or composite, we can pick a random number a, calculate the Jacobi symbol (⁠ a / n ⁠) and compare it with Euler's formula; if they differ modulo n, then n is composite; if they have the same residue modulo n for many different values of a, then n is "probably prime".

  9. Smith number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_number

    In number theory, a Smith number is a composite number for which, in a given number base, the sum of its digits is equal to the sum of the digits in its prime factorization in the same base. In the case of numbers that are not square-free , the factorization is written without exponents, writing the repeated factor as many times as needed.
