The Stimpmeter is a device used to measure the speed of a golf course putting green by applying a known velocity to a golf ball and measuring the distance traveled in feet. History [ edit ]
The first electric golf cart was custom-made in 1932, but did not gain widespread acceptance. [3] In the 1930s until the 1950s the most widespread use of golf carts was for those with disabilities who could not walk far. [4] By the mid-1950s the golf cart had gained wide acceptance with US golfers. [5]
The whirling frequency of a symmetric cross section of a given length between two points is given by: = where: E = Young's modulus, I = second moment of area, m = mass of the shaft, L = length of the shaft between points.
British Formula One Championship: With 2 additional bonus points for pole and 1 bonus point for fastest race lap between 1978 and 1980 respectively with 1 additional bonus point for pole and fastest race lap in 1982 1988: 1995: Japanese Formula 3000 Championship: Not all results counted towards total points scoring. 1988: 2000: Japanese Formula ...
Often Bernoulli's principle is used to explain the topspin effect, as the difference in speed between ball surface and air is greater on the top of the ball. For example, if the air flowing past the bottom of the ball is moving faster than the air flowing past the top then Bernoulli's principle implies that the pressure on the surfaces of the ...
Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games.
The speed to fly is the optimum speed through sinking or rising air mass to achieve either the furthest glide, or fastest average cross-country speed. [1] Most speed to fly setups use units of either airspeed in kilometers per hour (km/h) and climb rate in meters per second (m/s), or airspeed in knots (kn) and climb rate in feet per minute (ft ...
Tangential speed and rotational speed are related: the greater the "RPMs", the larger the speed in metres per second. Tangential speed is directly proportional to rotational speed at any fixed distance from the axis of rotation. [1] However, tangential speed, unlike rotational speed, depends on radial distance (the distance from the axis).
