    Bohr's formula was W τ 2 − W τ 1 = hν where W τ 2 and W τ 1 denote the energy levels of quantum states of an atom, with quantum numbers τ 2 and τ 1. The symbol ν denotes the frequency of a quantum of radiation that can be emitted or absorbed as the atom passes between those two quantum states.

    3)−4 nodes, B. Segre pointed out that this was wrong; for example, for degree 6 the maximum number of nodes is 65, achieved by the Barth sextic, which is more than the maximum of 52 claimed by Severi. Rokhlin invariant. Rokhlin incorrectly claimed in 1951 that the third stable stem of the homotopy groups of spheres is of order 12. In 1952 he ...

    A molecular formula enumerates the number of atoms to reflect those in the molecule, so that the molecular formula for glucose is C 6 H 12 O 6 rather than the glucose empirical formula, which is CH 2 O. Except for the very simple substances, molecular chemical formulas generally lack needed structural information, and might even be ambiguous in ...

    Now I will be geeky enough to actually explain what I don't like about the new formula. FICO 08, as it is known, will still give credit to authorized users including children and.

    [9]: 28 Newton's original formula was: where the symbol means "is proportional to". To make this into an equal-sided formula or equation, there needed to be a multiplying factor or constant that would give the correct force of gravity no matter the value of the masses or distance between them (the gravitational constant).

  7. Bessel's correction - Wikipedia

    But what if we use the formula (¯) / = / = to estimate the variance? The estimate of the variance would be zero – and the estimate would be zero for any population and any sample of n = 1. The problem is that in estimating the sample mean, the process has already made our estimate of the mean close to the value we sampled—identical, for n = 1.

    Archimedes did not give a method for constructing a straight line with the same length as the circumference. Goodwin was unaware of this central requirement; he believed that the problem with the Archimedean formula was that it gave wrong numerical results; a solution to the ancient problem should replace it with a "correct" formula.

  9. What's wrong with LeBron James? Lakers star struggling ... - AOL

    But the Lakers, James and coach JJ Redick should consider what’s best for the 40-year-old to be at his best. I’m hesitant to label this the beginning of a precipitous decline. Seems foolhardy.
