  2. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    The density of precious metals could conceivably be based on Troy ounces and pounds, a possible cause of confusion. Knowing the volume of the unit cell of a crystalline material and its formula weight (in daltons), the density can be calculated.

  3. Probability density function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function

    In probability theory, a probability density function (PDF), density function, or density of an absolutely continuous random variable, is a function whose value at any given sample (or point) in the sample space (the set of possible values taken by the random variable) can be interpreted as providing a relative likelihood that the value of the ...

    Density is defined as mass of material per unit volume C V ... Formula Natural variables ... See Exact differential for a list of mathematical relationships.

  5. Archimedes' principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes'_principle

    To find the force of buoyancy acting on the object when in air, using this particular information, this formula applies: Buoyancy force = weight of object in empty space − weight of object immersed in fluid. The final result would be measured in Newtons. Air's density is very small compared to most solids and liquids.

  6. Sigmoid function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function

    Sigmoid curves are also common in statistics as cumulative distribution functions (which go from 0 to 1), such as the integrals of the logistic density, the normal density, and Student's t probability density functions. The logistic sigmoid function is invertible, and its inverse is the logit function.

  9. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    Specifically, if the mass-density at time t=0 is given by a Dirac delta, which essentially means that the mass is initially concentrated in a single point, then the mass-distribution at time t will be given by a Gaussian function, with the parameter a being linearly related to 1/ √ t and c being linearly related to √ t; this time-varying ...
