  3. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    In general, if an increase of x percent is followed by a decrease of x percent, and the initial amount was p, the final amount is p (1 + 0.01 x)(1 − 0.01 x) = p (1 − (0.01 x) 2); hence the net change is an overall decrease by x percent of x percent (the square of the original percent change when expressed as a decimal number).

  4. Hydraulic roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_roughness

    Hydraulic roughness is the measure of the amount of frictional resistance water experiences when passing over land and channel features. [1] It quantifies the impact of surface irregularities and obstructions on the flow of water. One roughness coefficient is Manning's n-value. [2]

  5. Radian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radian

    One radian is defined as the angle at the center of a circle in a plane that subtends an arc whose length equals the radius of the circle. [6] More generally, the magnitude in radians of a subtended angle is equal to the ratio of the arc length to the radius of the circle; that is, =, where θ is the magnitude in radians of the subtended angle, s is arc length, and r is radius.

  6. Decibel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decibel

    The decibel originates from methods used to quantify signal loss in telegraph and telephone circuits. Until the mid-1920s, the unit for loss was miles of standard cable (MSC). 1 MSC corresponded to the loss of power over one mile (approximately 1.6 km) of standard telephone cable at a frequency of 5000 radians per second (795.8 Hz), and matched closely the smallest attenuation detectable to a ...

  7. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.

  8. K–Ar dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K–Ar_dating

    t 1/2 is the half-life of 40 K; K f is the amount of 40 K remaining in the sample; Ar f is the amount of 40 Ar found in the sample. The scale factor 0.109 corrects for the unmeasured fraction of 40 K which decayed into 40 Ca; the sum of the measured 40 K and the scaled amount of 40 Ar gives the amount of 40 K which was present at the beginning ...

  9. High entropy oxide - Wikipedia

    For a given number of components, is maximized when the atomic fractions of the components approach equimolar amounts. Evidence for entropy stabilization is given by the original rock salt HEO (MgNiCuCoZn) 0.2 O. Single-phase (MgNiCuCoZn) 0.2 O may be prepared by solid-state reaction of CuO, CoO, NiO, MgO, and ZnO.
