  3. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Power in mechanical systems is the combination of forces and movement. In particular, power is the product of a force on an object and the object's velocity, or the product of a torque on a shaft and the shaft's angular velocity. Mechanical power is also described as the time derivative of work.

  5. Thrust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust

    Thrust is a reaction force described quantitatively by Newton's third law. When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction, the accelerated mass will cause a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction to be applied to that system. [2] The force applied on a surface in a direction perpendicular or normal to the surface is also ...

  6. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    t. e. In physics and mechanics, torque is the rotational analogue of linear force. [1] It is also referred to as the moment of force (also abbreviated to moment). The symbol for torque is typically , the lowercase Greek letter tau. When being referred to as moment of force, it is commonly denoted by M.

  7. Power projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_projection

    Power projection (or force projection or strength projection) in international relations is the capacity of a state to deploy and sustain forces outside its territory. [1] The ability of a state to project its power into an area may serve as an effective diplomatic lever, influencing the decision-making processes and acting as a potential deterrent on other states' behavior.

  8. The Force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Force

    The Force is a metaphysical and ubiquitous power in the Star Wars fictional universe. "Force-sensitive" characters use the Force throughout the franchise. Heroes like the Jedi seek to "become one with the Force", matching their personal wills with the will of the Force, while the Sith and other villains exploit the Force and try to bend it toward their own selfish and destructive desires.

  9. Power law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_law

    In statistics, a power law is a functional relationship between two quantities, where a relative change in one quantity results in a relative change in the other quantity proportional to a power of the change, independent of the initial size of those quantities: one quantity varies as a power of another. For instance, considering the area of a ...
