  2. Beveridge curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beveridge_curve

    Beveridge curve of vacancy rate and unemployment rate data from the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. A Beveridge curve, or UV curve, is a graphical representation of the relationship between unemployment and the job vacancy rate, the number of unfilled jobs expressed as a proportion of the labour force. It typically has vacancies on ...

  3. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Power is the rate with respect to time at which work is done; it is the time derivative of work: =, where P is power, W is work, and t is time. We will now show that the mechanical power generated by a force F on a body moving at the velocity v can be expressed as the product: P = d W d t = F ⋅ v {\displaystyle P={\frac {dW}{dt}}=\mathbf {F ...

  4. Work (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    For convenience, consider contact with the spring occurs at t = 0, then the integral of the product of the distance x and the x-velocity, xv x dt, over time t is ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ x 2. The work is the product of the distance times the spring force, which is also dependent on distance; hence the x 2 result.

  5. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  6. Coriolis force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coriolis_force

    The Coriolis parameter typically has a mid-latitude value of about 10 −4 s −1; hence for a typical atmospheric speed of 10 m/s (22 mph), the radius is 100 km (62 mi) with a period of about 17 hours. For an ocean current with a typical speed of 10 cm/s (0.22 mph), the radius of an inertial circle is 1 km (0.6 mi).

  7. Employment-to-population ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Employment-to-population_ratio

    Employment-to-population ratio, also called the employment rate, [1] is a statistical ratio that measures the proportion of a country's working age population (statistics are often given for ages 15 to 64 [2] [3]) that is employed. This includes people that have stopped looking for work. [4] The International Labour Organization states that a ...

  8. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    Velocity refers to a displacement in one direction with respect to an interval of time. It is defined as the rate of change of displacement over change in time. [7] Velocity is a vector quantity, representing a direction and a magnitude of movement. The magnitude of a velocity is called speed.

  9. List of physics mnemonics - Wikipedia

    A Magic Triangle image mnemonic - when the terms of Ohm's law are arranged in this configuration, covering the unknown gives the formula in terms of the remaining parameters. It can be adapted to similar equations e.g. F = ma, v = fλ, E = mcΔT, V = π r 2 h and τ = rF sinθ.
