  2. Terminal velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocity

    This speed is the asymptotic limiting value of the speed, and the forces acting on the body balance each other more and more closely as the terminal speed is approached. In this example, a speed of 50.0% of terminal speed is reached after only about 3 seconds, while it takes 8 seconds to reach 90%, 15 seconds to reach 99%, and so on.

  3. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes'_law

    If correctly selected, it reaches terminal velocity, which can be measured by the time it takes to pass two marks on the tube. Electronic sensing can be used for opaque fluids. Knowing the terminal velocity, the size and density of the sphere, and the density of the liquid, Stokes' law can be used to calculate the viscosity of the fluid. A ...

    In 2020, it was announced that Google's AlphaFold, a neural network based on DeepMind artificial intelligence, is capable of predicting a protein's final shape based solely on its amino-acid chain with an accuracy of around 90% on a test sample of proteins used by the team.

  5. Exponential decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_decay

    For example, if the initial population of the assembly, N(0), is 1000, then the population at time , (), is 368. A very similar equation will be seen below, which arises when the base of the exponential is chosen to be 2, rather than e. In that case the scaling time is the "half-life".

  6. Gurney equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurney_equations

    The Gurney equations relate the following quantities: C - The mass of the explosive charge M - The mass of the accelerated shell or sheet of material (usually metal). The shell or sheet is often referred to as the flyer, or flyer plate.

  7. Reaction rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_rate

    Iron rusting has a low reaction rate. This process is slow. Wood combustion has a high reaction rate. This process is fast. The reaction rate or rate of reaction is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place, defined as proportional to the increase in the concentration of a product per unit time and to the decrease in the concentration of a reactant per unit time.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Terminal_velocity

    It appears that we are running the risk of being excessively relative here. The terminal velocity for an object accelerating into a black hole, for instance, is still the speed of light. You cannot be accelerated faster than the speed of light. 216.99.198.22 02:20, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

  9. Feynman–Kac formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feynman–Kac_formula

    The Feynman–Kac formula, named after Richard Feynman and Mark Kac, establishes a link between parabolic partial differential equations and stochastic processes.In 1947, when Kac and Feynman were both faculty members at Cornell University, Kac attended a presentation of Feynman's and remarked that the two of them were working on the same thing from different directions.
