  2. Density (computer storage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_(computer_storage)

    Higher density means more data moves under the head for any given mechanical movement. For example, we can calculate the effective transfer speed for a floppy disc by determining how fast the bits move under the head. A standard 3½-inch floppy disk spins at 300 rpm, and the innermost track is about 66 mm long (10.5 mm radius). At 300 rpm the ...

  3. Disk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_density

    High density (HD) 3½-inch disks switch to a cobalt disk coating, just as with 5¼-inch HD disks. Drives use 700-oersted write heads for a density of 17,434 bpi. Extra-high density (ED) doubles the capacity over HD by using a barium ferrite coating and a special write head that allows the use of perpendicular recording. [1] [2]

  4. Area density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_density

    In the case of a disk seen face-on, area density for a given area of the disk is defined as column density: that is, either as the mass of substance per unit area integrated along the vertical path that goes through the disk (line-of-sight), from the bottom to the top of the medium:

  5. Disk (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_(mathematics)

    In geometry, a disk (also spelled disc) [1] is the region in a plane bounded by a circle. A disk is said to be closed if it contains the circle that constitutes its boundary, and open if it does not. [2] For a radius, , an open disk is usually denoted as and a closed disk is ¯.

  6. Circular segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_segment

    In the design of windows or doors with rounded tops, c and h may be the only known values and can be used to calculate R for the draftsman's compass setting. One can reconstruct the full dimensions of a complete circular object from fragments by measuring the arc length and the chord length of the fragment. To check hole positions on a circular ...

  7. Disk storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_storage

    Gross disk drive capacity is simply the number of disk surfaces times the number of blocks/surface times the number of bytes/block. In certain legacy IBM CKD drives the data was stored on magnetic disks with variable length blocks, called records; record length could vary on and between disks. Capacity decreased as record length decreased due ...

  9. Schwarzschild radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius

    As the Schwarzschild radius is linearly related to mass, while the enclosed volume corresponds to the third power of the radius, small black holes are therefore much more dense than large ones. The volume enclosed in the event horizon of the most massive black holes has an average density lower than main sequence stars.
