  2. Stalagmometric method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalagmometric_method

    [1] The stalagmometric method (Ancient Greek: στάλαγμα, romanized: stálagma, lit. 'drop') is one of the most common methods for measuring surface tension . The principle is to measure the weight of drops of a fluid of interest falling from a capillary glass tube , and thereby calculate the surface tension of the fluid.

  3. Ballistic coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_coefficient

    When the correct G model retardation factors are applied within the Siacci mathematical formula for the same G model C b, a corrected trajectory can be calculated for any G model. Another method of determining trajectory and ballistic coefficient was developed and published by Wallace H. Coxe and Edgar Beugless of DuPont in 1936.

    The first equation shows that, after one second, an object will have fallen a distance of 1/2 × 9.8 × 1 2 = 4.9 m. After two seconds it will have fallen 1/2 × 9.8 × 2 2 = 19.6 m; and so on. On the other hand, the penultimate equation becomes grossly inaccurate at great distances.

  5. Buffon's needle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffon's_needle_problem

    Suppose we have a floor made of parallel strips of wood, each the same width, and we drop a needle onto the floor. What is the probability that the needle will lie across a line between two strips? Buffon's needle was the earliest problem in geometric probability to be solved; [ 2 ] it can be solved using integral geometry .

  6. Spinning drop method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_Drop_Method

    The full mathematical analysis on the shape of spinning drops was done by Princen and others. [4] Progress in numerical algorithms and available computing resources turned solving the non linear implicit parameter equations to a pretty much 'common' task, which has been tackled by various authors and companies.

    The Chisanbop system. When a finger is touching the table, it contributes its corresponding number to a total. Chisanbop or chisenbop (from Korean chi (ji) finger + sanpŏp (sanbeop) calculation [1] 지산법/指算法), sometimes called Fingermath, [2] is a finger counting method used to perform basic mathematical operations.
