  2. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    The density of precious metals could conceivably be based on Troy ounces and pounds, a possible cause of confusion. Knowing the volume of the unit cell of a crystalline material and its formula weight (in daltons), the density can be calculated.

  3. List of common physics notations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_physics...

    mass density usually simply called density kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m 3) volume charge density: coulomb per cubic meter (C/m 3) resistivity: ohm meter (Ω⋅m) sigma: summation operator area charge density: coulomb per square meter (C/m 2) electrical conductivity: siemens per meter (S/m) normal stress: pascal (Pa)

  4. Linear density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_density

    Consider a long, thin rod of mass and length .To calculate the average linear mass density, ¯, of this one dimensional object, we can simply divide the total mass, , by the total length, : ¯ = If we describe the rod as having a varying mass (one that varies as a function of position along the length of the rod, ), we can write: = Each infinitesimal unit of mass, , is equal to the product of ...

  5. Number density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_density

    The number density (symbol: n or ρ N) is an intensive quantity used to describe the degree of concentration of countable objects (particles, molecules, phonons, cells, galaxies, etc.) in physical space: three-dimensional volumetric number density, two-dimensional areal number density, or one-dimensional linear number density.

  6. List of physical quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_quantities

    Some quantities are known as several different names such as the magnetic B-field which is known as the magnetic flux density, the magnetic induction or simply as the magnetic field depending on the context. Similarly, surface tension can be denoted by either σ, γ or T. The table usually lists only one name and symbol that is most commonly used.

  7. Area density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_density

    A special type of area density is called column density (also columnar mass density or simply column density), denoted ρ A or σ. It is the mass of substance per unit area integrated along a path; [ 1 ] It is obtained integrating volumetric density ρ {\displaystyle \rho } over a column: [ 2 ] σ = ∫ ρ d s . {\displaystyle \sigma =\int \rho ...

  8. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    This equation allows the relative density to be calculated from the change in displacement, the known density of the reference liquid, and the known properties of the hydrometer. If Δ x is small then, as a first-order approximation of the geometric series equation ( 4 ) can be written as: R D n e w / r e f ≈ 1 + A Δ x m ρ r e f ...

  9. Planck's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck's_law

    To calculate the density of states we rewrite equation as follows: = , where n is the norm of the vector n = (n 1, n 2, n 3). For every vector n with integer components larger than or equal to zero, there are two photon states.
