  2. SI derived unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit

    The SI has special names for 22 of these coherent derived units (for example, hertz, the SI unit of measurement of frequency), but the rest merely reflect their derivation: for example, the square metre (m 2), the SI derived unit of area; and the kilogram per cubic metre (kg/m 3 or kg⋅m −3), the SI derived unit of density.

  3. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). Expressed in terms of SI base units, it is 1 kg⋅m/s 2, the force that accelerates a mass of one kilogram at one metre per second squared. The unit is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically his second law of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_line

    In Euclidean geometry the Newton line is the line that connects the midpoints of the two diagonals in a convex quadrilateral with at most two parallel sides. [ 1 ] Properties

  6. Shear flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_flow

    An equivalent definition for shear flow is the shear force V per unit length of the perimeter around a thin-walled section. Shear flow has the dimensions of force per unit of length. [1] This corresponds to units of newtons per meter in the SI system and pound-force per foot in the US.

    newton meter squared per kilogram squared (N⋅m 2 /kg 2) shear modulus: pascal (Pa) or newton per square meter (N/m 2) gluon field strength tensor: inverse length squared (1/m 2) acceleration due to gravity: meters per second squared (m/s 2), or equivalently, newtons per kilogram (N/kg) magnetic field strength

  8. Cauchy stress tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy_stress_tensor

    The SI base units of both stress tensor and traction vector are newton per square metre (N/m 2) or pascal (Pa), corresponding to the stress scalar. The unit vector is dimensionless . The Cauchy stress tensor obeys the tensor transformation law under a change in the system of coordinates.

  9. Curve sketching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_sketching

    Then Newton's diagram has points at (3, 0), (1, 1), and (0, 3). Two diagonal lines may be drawn as described above, 2α+β=3 and α+2β=3. These produce = = as approximate equations for the horizontal and vertical branches of the curve where they cross at the origin. [2]
