  2. Intensity (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Intensity can be found by taking the energy density (energy per unit volume) at a point in space and multiplying it by the velocity at which the energy is moving. The resulting vector has the units of power divided by area (i.e., surface power density). The intensity of a wave is proportional to the square of its amplitude.

  3. Sound intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_intensity

    Sound intensity, also known as acoustic intensity, is defined as the power carried by sound waves per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area, also called the sound power density and the sound energy flux density. [2] The SI unit of intensity, which includes sound intensity, is the watt per square meter (W/m 2).

  4. Maximum intensity projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_intensity_projection

    - Volume rendering by high and low threshold for radiodensity. In scientific visualization , a maximum intensity projection ( MIP ) is a method for 3D data that projects in the visualization plane the voxels with maximum intensity that fall in the way of parallel rays traced from the viewpoint to the plane of projection.

  5. Intensive and extensive properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensive_and_extensive...

    All its intensive properties, such as the mass per volume (mass density) or volume per mass (specific volume), must remain the same in each half. The temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it, so temperature is an intensive quantity.

  6. Loudness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness

    [a] A more precise model known as the Inflected Exponential function, [3] indicates that loudness increases with a higher exponent at low and high levels and with a lower exponent at moderate levels. [4] The sensitivity of the human ear changes as a function of frequency, as shown in the equal-loudness graph. Each line on this graph shows the ...

  7. Light intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_intensity

    Luminous intensity, a photometric quantity measured in lumens per steradian (lm/sr), or candela (cd) Irradiance, a radiometric quantity, measured in watts per square meter (W/m 2) Intensity (physics), the name for irradiance used in other branches of physics (W/m 2) Radiance, commonly called "intensity" in astronomy and astrophysics (W·sr −1 ...

  8. Progressive overload - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_overload

    In this context, volume and intensity are defined as follows: [9] Volume: the total number of repetitions multiplied by the resistance used to perform each repetition. Intensity: the percent value of maximal functional capacity, or expressed as a percent of the maximum number of repetitions. Frequency: how often a person engages in training ...

  9. VO2 max - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VO2_max

    V̇O 2 max (also maximal oxygen consumption, maximal oxygen uptake or maximal aerobic capacity) is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption attainable during physical exertion. [1] [2] The name is derived from three abbreviations: "V̇" for volume (the dot over the V indicates "per unit of time" in Newton's notation), "O 2" for oxygen, and "max" for maximum and usually normalized per kilogram of ...
