  2. Gas constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

    This disparity is not a significant departure from accuracy, and USSA1976 uses this value of R ∗ for all the calculations of the standard atmosphere. When using the ISO value of R , the calculated pressure increases by only 0.62 pascal at 11 kilometres (the equivalent of a difference of only 17.4 centimetres or 6.8 inches) and 0.292 Pa at 20 ...

  3. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured. Many of these are redundant, in the sense that they obey a known relationship with other physical ...

  4. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    There is a large amount of literature on this topic. In general, works using the term "thermal resistance" are more engineering-oriented, whereas works using the term thermal conductivity are more [pure-]physics-oriented. The following books are representative, but may be easily substituted. Terry M. Tritt, ed. (2004).

  5. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    The R-value is the building industry term [3] for thermal resistance "per unit area." [4] It is sometimes denoted RSI-value if the SI units are used. [5] An R-value can be given for a material (e.g. for polyethylene foam), or for an assembly of materials (e.g. a wall or a window). In the case of materials, it is often expressed in terms of R ...

  7. R (cross section ratio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_(cross_section_ratio)

    R is an important input in the calculation of the anomalous magnetic dipole moment. [1] Experimental values have been measured for center-of-mass energies from 400 MeV to 150 GeV. [2] R also provides experimental confirmation of the electric charge of quarks, in particular the charm quark and bottom quark, and the existence of three quark ...

    Social Security is the U.S. government’s biggest program; as of June 30, 2024, about 67.9 million people, or one in five Americans, collected Social Security benefits.This year, we’re seeing a ...

  9. Vacuum permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_permittivity

    Here, q 1 and q 2 are the charges, r is the distance between their centres, and the value of the constant fraction / is approximately 9 × 10 9 N⋅m 2 ⋅C −2. Likewise, ε 0 appears in Maxwell's equations , which describe the properties of electric and magnetic fields and electromagnetic radiation , and relate them to their sources.
