  2. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    The path of this projectile launched from a height y 0 has a range d. In physics, a projectile launched with specific initial conditions will have a range. It may be more predictable assuming a flat Earth with a uniform gravity field, and no air resistance. The horizontal ranges of a projectile are equal for two complementary angles of ...

  3. List of musical symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...

  4. Range (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(music)

    The terms sounding range, written range, designated range, duration range and dynamic range have specific meanings. The sounding range [ 3 ] refers to the pitches produced by an instrument, while the written range [ 3 ] refers to the compass (span) of notes written in the sheet music, where the part is sometimes transposed for convenience.

  5. Ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistics

    A sling is a projectile weapon typically used to throw a blunt projectile such as a stone, clay or lead "sling-bullet". A sling has a small cradle or pouch in the middle of two lengths of cord. The sling stone is placed in the pouch. The middle finger or thumb is placed through a loop on the end of one cord, and a tab at the end of the other ...

  6. Impact depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_depth

    This approach is only valid for a narrow range of velocities less than the speed of sound within the target or impactor material. If the impact velocity is greater than the speed of sound within the target or impactor material, impact shock causes the material to fracture, and at higher velocities to behave like a gas, causing rapid ejection of ...

  7. Bouncing ball - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouncing_ball

    The motion of a ball is generally described by projectile motion (which can be affected by gravity, drag, the Magnus effect, and buoyancy), while its impact is usually characterized through the coefficient of restitution (which can be affected by the nature of the ball, the nature of the impacting surface, the impact velocity, rotation, and ...

  8. External ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_ballistics

    For example, if the vertical projectile position over a certain range reach is within the vertical height of the target area the shooter wants to hit, the point of aim does not necessarily need to be adjusted over that range; the projectile is considered to have a sufficiently flat point-blank range trajectory for that particular target. [3]

  9. Mersenne's laws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mersenne's_laws

    The equation was first proposed by French mathematician and music theorist Marin Mersenne in his 1636 work Harmonie universelle. [2] Mersenne's laws govern the construction and operation of string instruments, such as pianos and harps, which must accommodate the total tension force required to keep the strings at the proper pitch.
