  2. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    For example, 3 5 = 3 · 3 · 3 · 3 · 3 = 243. The base 3 appears 5 times in the multiplication, because the exponent is 5. Here, 243 is the 5th power of 3, or 3 raised to the 5th power. The word "raised" is usually omitted, and sometimes "power" as well, so 3 5 can be simply read "3 to the 5th", or "3 to

  3. Fifth power (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_power_(algebra)

    Fifth power (algebra) In arithmetic and algebra, the fifth power or sursolid[1] of a number n is the result of multiplying five instances of n together: n5 = n × n × n × n × n. Fifth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its fourth power, or the square of a number by its cube. The sequence of fifth powers of integers is:

    The first three values of the expression x[5]2. The value of 3[5]2 is about 7.626 × 10 12; values for higher x, such as 4[5]2, which is about 2.361 × 10 8.072 × 10 153 are much too large to appear on the graph. In mathematics, pentation (or hyper-5) is the fifth hyperoperation.

  5. Tetration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

    The term superexponentiation was published by Bromer in his paper Superexponentiation in 1987. [3] It was used earlier by Ed Nelson in his book Predicative Arithmetic, Princeton University Press, 1986. The term hyperpower [4] is a natural combination of hyper and power, which aptly describes tetration.

  6. Power (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    Power (statistics) In frequentist statistics, power is a measure of the ability of an experimental design and hypothesis testing setup to detect a particular effect if it is truly present. In typical use, it is a function of the test used (including the desired level of statistical significance), the assumed distribution of the test (for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP-35

    HP-35 calculators were carried on the Skylab 3 and Skylab 4 flights, between July 1973 and February 1974. [6] Is the first pocket calculator with a numeric range that covered 200 decades (more precise 199, ±10 ±99). [5] The LED display power requirement was responsible for the HP-35's short battery life between charges—about three hours.

  8. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

    Three-phase transformer with four-wire output for 208Y/120 volt service: one wire for neutral, others for A, B and C phases. Three-phase electric power (abbreviated 3ϕ[1]) is a common type of alternating current (AC) used in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. [2] It is a type of polyphase system employing three wires (or ...

  9. Logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

    In mathematics, the logarithm to baseb is the inverse function of exponentiation with base b. That means that the logarithm of a number x to the base b is the exponent to which b must be raised to produce x. For example, since 1000 = 103, the logarithm base of 1000 is 3, or log10(1000) = 3.
