With the exceptions of 1, 8 and 144 (F 1 = F 2, F 6 and F 12) every Fibonacci number has a prime factor that is not a factor of any smaller Fibonacci number (Carmichael's theorem). [57] As a result, 8 and 144 (F 6 and F 12) are the only Fibonacci numbers that are the product of other Fibonacci numbers. [58]
Volume was measured in ngogn (equal to 1000 cubic potrzebies), mass in blintz (equal to the mass of 1 ngogn of halva, which is "a form of pie [with] a specific gravity of 3.1416 and a specific heat of .31416"), and time in seven named units (decimal powers of the average earth rotation, equal to 1 "clarke").
Ephemeris time (ET), adopted as standard in 1952, was originally designed as an approach to a uniform time scale, to be freed from the effects of irregularity in the rotation of the Earth, "for the convenience of astronomers and other scientists", for example for use in ephemerides of the Sun (as observed from the Earth), the Moon, and the planets.
To avoid the inherent complexity of determining stomatal and atmospheric conductance, the Food and Agriculture Organization proposed in 1998 [1] a simplified equation for the reference evapotranspiration ET 0. It is defined as the evapotranpiration for "[an] hypothetical reference crop with an assumed crop height of 0.12 m, a fixed surface ...

Crop coefficients are properties of plants used in predicting evapotranspiration (ET). The most basic crop coefficient, K c, is simply the ratio of ET observed for the crop studied over that observed for the well calibrated reference crop under the same conditions.
Egg prices have risen steadily over the past two years. A spike in avian flu and the approaching holiday season are combining to make the problem even worse. “Thanksgiving (dinner) is the same ...
TI SR-50A, a 1975 calculator with a factorial key (third row, center right) The factorial function is a common feature in scientific calculators . [ 73 ] It is also included in scientific programming libraries such as the Python mathematical functions module [ 74 ] and the Boost C++ library . [ 75 ]
