  2. Impact pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_pressure

    In compressible fluid dynamics, impact pressure (dynamic pressure) is the difference between total pressure (also known as pitot pressure or stagnation pressure) and static pressure. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In aerodynamics notation, this quantity is denoted as q c {\displaystyle q_{c}} or Q c {\displaystyle Q_{c}} .

  3. AP World History: Modern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_World_History:_Modern

    In 2012, the head of AP Grading, Trevor Packer, stated that the reason for the low percentages of 5s is that "AP World History is a college-level course, & many sophomores aren't yet writing at that level." 10.44 percent of all seniors who took the exam in 2012 received a 5, while just 6.62 percent of sophomores received a 5.

  4. DPSIR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DPSIR

    DPSIR (drivers, pressures, state, impact, and response model of intervention) is a causal framework used to describe the interactions between society and the environment. [1] It seeks to analyze and assess environmental problems by bringing together various scientific disciplines, environmental managers, and stakeholders, and solve them by ...

    Pressure used in boilers of steam locomotives [citation needed] 1.1 MPa 162 psi Pressure of an average human bite [citation needed] 2.8–8.3 MPa 400–1,200 psi Pressure of carbon dioxide propellant in a paintball gun [64] 5 MPa 700 psi Water pressure of the output of a coin-operated car wash spray nozzle [58] 5 MPa 700 psi

  6. Calibrated airspeed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibrated_airspeed

    These formulae can then be used to calibrate an airspeed indicator when impact pressure is measured using a water manometer or accurate pressure gauge. If using a water manometer to measure millimeters of water the reference pressure ( P 0 {\\displaystyle P_{0}} ) may be entered as 10333 mm H 2 O {\\displaystyle H_{2}O} .

  7. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    Dynamic pressure is one of the terms of Bernoulli's equation, which can be derived from the conservation of energy for a fluid in motion. [1] At a stagnation point the dynamic pressure is equal to the difference between the stagnation pressure and the static pressure, so the dynamic pressure in a flow field can be measured at a stagnation point ...

    Impact crater, a meteor crater caused by an impact event Impact event , the collision of a meteoroid, asteroid or comet with Earth Impact factor , a measure of the citations to a science or social science journal

  9. Macrohistory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrohistory

    Macrohistory is distinguished from microhistory, which involves the rigorous and in-depth study of a single event in history. [4] However, these two can be combined such as the case of studying the larger trends of post- slavery societies, which include the examination of individual cases and smaller groups. [ 5 ]
