    10 −16: 100 aHz ~137.8 aHz: Once per galactic year (about every 230 million years) 10 −15: 1 femtohertz (fHz) ~3 fHz: Sound waves created by a supermassive black hole in the Perseus cluster [1] 10 −14: 10 fHz ~31.71 fHz: Once every one million years 10 −12: 1 picohertz (pHz) 1.23 pHz Precession of the Earth's axis (about every 25,700 ...

  5. Speed of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound

    This additional type of sound wave (additional type of elastic wave) travels only in solids, for it requires a sideways shearing motion which is supported by the presence of elasticity in the solid. The sideways shearing motion may take place in any direction which is at right-angle to the direction of wave travel (only one shear direction is ...

  6. Acoustic wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_wave

    An acoustic wave is a mechanical wave that transmits energy through the movements of atoms and molecules. Acoustic waves transmit through fluids in a longitudinal manner (movement of particles are parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave); in contrast to electromagnetic waves that transmit in transverse manner (movement of particles at a right angle to the direction of propagation ...

  7. Pencil detonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencil_detonator

    For example, a 2-hour pencil detonator might be accurate to plus or minus 5 minutes, whereas the version offering a 6-hour delay could have a precision of plus or minus 15 minutes. Both No. 9 and No. 10 delays were also significantly affected by the ambient temperature, and were issued along with a chart of temperature corrections—but no ...

  8. Wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave

    A standing wave, also known as a stationary wave, is a wave whose envelope remains in a constant position. This phenomenon arises as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions. The sum of two counter-propagating waves (of equal amplitude and frequency) creates a standing wave. Standing waves commonly arise when ...

  9. Stopwatch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopwatch

    The first digital timer used in organized sports was the Digitimer, developed by Cox Electronic Systems, Inc. of Salt Lake City Utah (1962). [1] It utilized a Nixie-tube readout and provided a resolution of 1/1000 second. Its first use was in ski racing but was later used by the World University Games in Moscow, Russia, the U.S. NCAA, and in ...
