  2. Mass–energy equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence

    [70] [71] American physical chemists Gilbert N. Lewis and Richard C. Tolman used two variations of the formula in 1909: m = ⁠ E / c 2 ⁠ and m 0 = ⁠ E 0 / c 2 ⁠, with E being the relativistic energy (the energy of an object when the object is moving), E 0 is the rest energy (the energy when not moving), m is the relativistic mass (the ...

  3. Cubic pyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_pyramid

    Net. In 4-dimensional geometry, the cubic pyramid is bounded by one cube on the base and 6 square pyramid cells which meet at the apex.Since a cube has a circumradius divided by edge length less than one, [1] the square pyramids can be made with regular faces by computing the appropriate height.

  4. Napkin ring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napkin_ring_problem

    Reprint of 1935 edition. A problem on page 101 describes the shape formed by a sphere with a cylinder removed as a "napkin ring" and asks for a proof that the volume is the same as that of a sphere with diameter equal to the length of the hole. Pólya, George (1990), Mathematics and Plausible Reasoning, Vol.

  5. Cubic reciprocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_reciprocity

    Cubic reciprocity is a collection of theorems in elementary and algebraic number theory that state conditions under which the congruence x 3 ≡ p (mod q) is solvable; the word "reciprocity" comes from the form of the main theorem, which states that if p and q are primary numbers in the ring of Eisenstein integers, both coprime to 3, the congruence x 3 ≡ p (mod q) is solvable if and only if ...

  6. Cubical bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubical_bipyramid

    In 4-dimensional geometry, the cubical bipyramid is the direct sum of a cube and a segment, {4,3} + { }. Each face of a central cube is attached with two square pyramids, creating 12 square pyramidal cells, 30 triangular faces, 28 edges, and 10 vertices.

  7. Pyraminx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyraminx

    Pyraminx in its solved state. The Pyraminx (/ ˈ p ɪ r ə m ɪ ŋ k s /) is a regular tetrahedron puzzle in the style of Rubik's Cube.It was made and patented by Uwe Mèffert after the original 3 layered Rubik's Cube by Ernő Rubik, and introduced by Tomy Toys of Japan (then the 3rd largest toy company in the world) in 1981.

  8. Hilbert's third problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_third_problem

    The formula for the volume of a pyramid, one-third of the product of base area and height, had been known to Euclid. Still, all proofs of it involve some form of limiting process or calculus, notably the method of exhaustion or, in more modern form, Cavalieri's principle. Similar formulas in plane geometry can be proven with more elementary means.

  9. Pyramorphix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramorphix

    Four of the cube's corners are reshaped into pyramids and the other four are reshaped into triangles. The result of this is a puzzle that changes shape as it is turned. The original name for the Pyramorphix was "The Junior Pyraminx." This was altered to reflect the "Shape Changing" aspect of the puzzle which makes it appear less like the 2×2× ...
