  2. Kelvin wake pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_wake_pattern

    [1] This pattern consists of two wake lines that form the arms of a chevron, V, with the source of the wake at the vertex of the V. For sufficiently slow motion, each wake line is offset from the path of the wake source by around arcsin(1/3) = 19.47° and is made up of feathery wavelets angled at roughly 53° to the path.

  3. Physical layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_layer

    Micrel KS8721CL – 3.3 V single power supply 10/100BASE-TX/FX MII physical layer transceiver. The Ethernet PHY is a component that operates at the physical layer of the OSI network model. It implements the physical layer portion of the Ethernet. Its purpose is to provide analog signal physical access to the link.

  4. 10 Gigabit Ethernet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10_Gigabit_Ethernet

    Router with two dozen 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports and three types of physical-layer module. 10 Gigabit Ethernet (abbreviated 10GE, 10GbE, or 10 GigE) is a group of computer networking technologies for transmitting Ethernet frames at a rate of 10 gigabits per second. It was first defined by the IEEE 802.3ae-2002 standard.

  5. Ethernet physical layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_physical_layer

    Generally, layers are named by their specifications: [8] 10, 100, 1000, 10G, ... – the nominal, usable speed at the top of the physical layer (no suffix = megabit/s, G = gigabit/s), excluding line codes but including other physical layer overhead (preamble, SFD, IPG); some WAN PHYs (W) run at slightly reduced bitrates for compatibility reasons; encoded PHY sublayers usually run at higher ...

  6. Maritime response following the September 11 attacks

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maritime_response...

    In early reporting of the evacuation, large numbers of between 500,000 and 1 million people were evacuated by boat with a believed closer number of about 270,000 people actually evacuated. With about 130 to 150 boats being used in the response, ranging from Staten Island ferries that could hold about 6,000 people to rubber dinghies that could ...

  7. AP Physics 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_1

    AP Physics 1 is an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course that includes mechanics topics such as motion, fluids, force, momentum, energy, harmonic motion, and rotation. The College Board published a curriculum framework that includes eight big ideas on which AP Physics 1 is based.

  8. Ship motions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_motions

    The turning rotation of a vessel about its vertical/Z axis. An offset or deviation from normal on this axis is referred to as deviation or set. This is referred to as the heading of the boat relative to a magnetic compass (or true heading if referenced to the true north pole); it also affects the bearing.

  9. Velocity prediction program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity_prediction_program

    A velocity prediction program (VPP) is a computer program which solves for the performance of a sailing yacht in various wind conditions by balancing hull and sail forces. VPPs are used by yacht designers, boat builders, model testers, sailors, sailmakers, also America's Cup teams, to predict the performance of a sailboat before it has been built or prior to major modifications.
