    World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is the third expansion set for the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) World of Warcraft, following Wrath of the Lich King. It was officially announced at BlizzCon on August 21, 2009, although dataminers and researchers discovered details before it was announced by Blizzard. [ 2 ]

  3. Sigma Draconis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_Draconis

    The star made its perihelion passage about 46,300 years ago, when it came within 16.6 ly (5.1 pc). [13] The components of Sigma Draconis's space velocity are U=+36, V=+40, and W=−10 km/s. This gives the star an unusually large orbital eccentricity about the Milky Way galaxy of 0.30 (compared to 0.06 for the Sun.)

    Employees work in two-week cycles. Week 1, the employee works 4 days of 9 hours followed by 1 day of 8 hours with 2 days off (i.e. 44 hours). Week 2, the employee works 4 days of 9 hours with 3 days off (i.e. 36 hours). Like 8 hours a day for 5 days a week, this plan works to 80-hours in a two-week pay-period.

    A typical turbocharged V8 diesel engine might have an engine power of 250 kW (340 hp) and a mass of 380 kg (840 lb), [1] giving it a power-to-weight ratio of 0.65 kW/kg (0.40 hp/lb). Examples of high power-to-weight ratios can often be found in turbines.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler-22b

    Kepler-22b's radius was initially thought to be 2.4 times that of Earth, but has since been revised to 2.1 R 🜨 as of 2023. [ 6 ] [ 3 ] Its mass and surface composition remain unknown, [ 2 ] [ 7 ] with only some rough estimates established: at the time of the discovery announcement, it was known to have fewer than 124 Earth masses at the 3 ...

  7. Cryptanalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptanalysis

    Cryptanalysis (from the Greek kryptós, "hidden", and analýein, "to analyze") refers to the process of analyzing information systems in order to understand hidden aspects of the systems. [1] Cryptanalysis is used to breach cryptographic security systems and gain access to the contents of encrypted messages, even if the cryptographic key is ...

  8. Continuously variable transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuously_variable...

    One disc is the input, and the other is the output. Between the discs are rollers, which vary the ratio and transfer power from one side to the other. When the rollers' axes are perpendicular to the axis of the discs, the effective diameter is the same for the input discs and the output discs, resulting in a 1:1 drive ratio. For other ratios ...

    The reaction of 1 kg of antimatter with 1 kg of matter would produce 1.8 × 10 17 J (180 petajoules) of energy (by the mass–energy equivalence formula, E=mc 2), or the rough equivalent of 43 megatons of TNT – slightly less than the yield of the 27,000 kg Tsar Bomba, the largest thermonuclear weapon ever detonated.
