  2. List of unusual units of measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_units_of...

    Rack units are typically denoted without a space between the number of units and the 'U'. Thus, a 4U server enclosure (case) is seven inches (177.8 mm) high, or more practically, built to occupy a vertical space seven inches high, with sufficient clearance to allow movement of adjacent hardware.

  3. Geometric mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_mean

    The same principle applies with the C series, whose area is the geometric mean of the A and B series. For example, the C4 format has an area which is the geometric mean of the areas of A4 and B4. An advantage that comes from this relationship is that an A4 paper fits inside a C4 envelope, and both fit inside a B4 envelope.

  4. Standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

    For example, the average height for adult men in the United States is about 69 inches, [4] with a standard deviation of around 3 inches. This means that most men (about 68%, assuming a normal distribution ) have a height within 3 inches of the mean ( 66–72 inches ) – one standard deviation – and almost all men (about 95%) have a height ...

  5. Baker percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker_percentage

    The baker has determined how much a recipe's ingredients weigh, and uses uniform decimal weight units. All ingredient weights are divided by the flour weight to obtain a ratio, then the ratio is multiplied by 100% to yield the baker's percentage for that ingredient:

  6. HDMI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI

    For digital audio, if an HDMI device has audio, it is required to implement the baseline format: stereo (uncompressed) PCM. Other formats are optional, with HDMI allowing up to 8 channels of uncompressed audio at sample sizes of 16 bits, 20 bits, or 24 bits, with sample rates of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, or 192 kHz.

  7. 3D film - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_film

    3D films are motion pictures made to give an illusion of three-dimensional solidity, usually with the help of special glasses worn by viewers. They have existed in some form since 1915 [citation needed], but had been largely relegated to a niche in the motion picture industry because of the costly hardware and processes required to produce and display a 3D film, and the lack of a standardized ...

  8. VO2 max - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VO2_max

    V̇O 2 max (also maximal oxygen consumption, maximal oxygen uptake or maximal aerobic capacity) is the maximum rate of oxygen consumption attainable during physical exertion. [1] [2] The name is derived from three abbreviations: "V̇" for volume (the dot over the V indicates "per unit of time" in Newton's notation), "O 2" for oxygen, and "max" for maximum and usually normalized per kilogram of ...

  9. Highland County, Virginia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highland_County,_Virginia

    Since 1955, Highland County has experienced twenty instances of severe hail, which is defined by the National Weather Service as hailstones having a diameter of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm). If the old definition of at least 3 ⁄ 4 inch (1.9 cm) diameter hailstones is considered, the county has experienced twenty-two instances of severe hail ...
