  2. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Power in mechanical systems is the combination of forces and movement. In particular, power is the product of a force on an object and the object's velocity, or the product of a torque on a shaft and the shaft's angular velocity. Mechanical power is also described as the time derivative of work.

  3. Generalized mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_mean

    A power mean serves a non-linear moving average which is shifted towards small signal values for small p and emphasizes big signal values for big p. Given an efficient implementation of a moving arithmetic mean called smooth one can implement a moving power mean according to the following Haskell code.

  4. Root mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    The term RMS power is sometimes erroneously used (e.g., in the audio industry) as a synonym for mean power or average power (it is proportional to the square of the RMS voltage or RMS current in a resistive load). For a discussion of audio power measurements and their shortcomings, see Audio power.

  5. Power (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(statistics)

    According to this formula, the power increases with the values of the effect size and the sample size n, and reduces with increasing variability . In the trivial case of zero effect size, power is at a minimum ( infimum ) and equal to the significance level of the test α , {\displaystyle \alpha \,,} in this example 0.05.

  6. AC power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power

    The portion of instantaneous power that, averaged over a complete cycle of the AC waveform, results in net transfer of energy in one direction is known as instantaneous active power, and its time average is known as active power or real power.

  7. Power law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_law

    The distributions of a wide variety of physical, biological, and human-made phenomena approximately follow a power law over a wide range of magnitudes: these include the sizes of craters on the moon and of solar flares, [2] cloud sizes, [3] the foraging pattern of various species, [4] the sizes of activity patterns of neuronal populations, [5] the frequencies of words in most languages ...

  8. Peak envelope power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_envelope_power

    Peak envelope power (PEP) is the average power over a single radio frequency cycle at the crest of the modulation. This is a Federal Communications Commission definition. PEP is normally considered the occasional or continuously repeating crest of the modulation envelope under normal operating conditions.

  9. Intensity (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    In physics and many other areas of science and engineering the intensity or flux of radiant energy is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy. [a] In the SI system, it has units watts per square metre (W/m 2), or kg⋅s −3 in base units.
