  2. Cardioid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardioid

    A cardioid microphone exhibits an acoustic pickup pattern that, when graphed in two dimensions, resembles a cardioid (any 2d plane containing the 3d straight line of the microphone body). In three dimensions, the cardioid is shaped like an apple centred around the microphone which is the "stalk" of the apple.

  3. Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    Thus, the 'size' of this region is measured by determining the length of the arc between the two angles. [34] If the root point of the main cardioid is the cusp at = /, then the main cardioid is the /-bulb. The root point of any other bulb is just the point where this bulb is attached to the main cardioid.

  4. Limaçon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limaçon

    Construction of the limaçon r = 2 + cos(π – θ) with polar coordinates' origin at (x, y) = (⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, 0). In geometry, a limaçon or limacon / ˈ l ɪ m ə s ɒ n /, also known as a limaçon of Pascal or Pascal's Snail, is defined as a roulette curve formed by the path of a point fixed to a circle when that circle rolls around the outside of a circle of equal radius.

  5. Lemniscate of Bernoulli - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemniscate_of_Bernoulli

    The lemniscate is symmetric to the line connecting its foci F 1 and F 2 and as well to the perpendicular bisector of the line segment F 1 F 2. The lemniscate is symmetric to the midpoint of the line segment F 1 F 2. The area enclosed by the lemniscate is a 2 = 2c 2. The lemniscate is the circle inversion of a hyperbola and vice versa.

  6. Microphone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone

    A super-cardioid microphone is similar to a hyper-cardioid, except there is more front pickup and less rear pickup. It is produced with about a 5:3 ratio, with nulls at 126.9°. This ratio maximizes the front-back ratio; the energy ratio between front and rear radiation. [50] [51] The sub-cardioid microphone has no null points. It is produced ...

  7. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    Every point on the line has a real-number coordinate, and every real number represents some point on the line. There are two degrees of freedom in the choice of Cartesian coordinate system for a line, which can be specified by choosing two distinct points along the line and assigning them to two distinct real numbers (most

  8. Coin rotation paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coin_rotation_paradox

    The outer coin makes two rotations rolling once around the inner coin. The path of a single point on the edge of the moving coin is a cardioid.. The coin rotation paradox is the counter-intuitive math problem that, when one coin is rolled around the rim of another coin of equal size, the moving coin completes not one but two full rotations after going all the way around the stationary coin ...

  9. Inverse curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_curve

    The green cardioid is obtained by inverting the red parabola across the dashed circle. In inversive geometry, an inverse curve of a given curve C is the result of applying an inverse operation to C. Specifically, with respect to a fixed circle with center O and radius k the inverse of a point Q is the point P for which P lies on the ray OQ and ...
