  2. Barnacle (parking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnacle_(parking)

    The Barnacle is a bright yellow, 20-pound (9.1 kg) piece of plastic that adheres to a windshield with 750 pounds-force (3,300 N) of force. It is equipped with an alarm that sounds if the vehicle is moved, and it has a keypad to input an unlock code so that the owner, after settling their parking violation, can release the device and drive away.

  3. Batterygate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batterygate

    The controversy first emerged in late-2016, when it was reported that since a recent iOS update, some iPhone handsets had begun to experience unexpected shutdowns when their battery capacity reached 30%, caused by drops in the battery's terminal voltage below a threshold of around three volts required for operation of the device.

  4. Suction cup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction_cup

    The working face of the suction cup is made of elastic, flexible material and has a curved surface. [3] When the center of the suction cup is pressed against a flat, non-porous surface, the volume of the space between the suction cup and the flat surface is reduced, which causes the air or water between the cup and the surface to be expelled past the rim of the circular cup.

  5. iPhone hardware - Wikipedia

    The top and side of an iPhone 5S, externally identical to the SE (2016).From left to right, sides: wake/sleep button, silence switch, volume up, and volume down. The touchscreen on the iPhone has increased in size several times over the years, from 3.5 inches on the original iPhone to iPhone 4S, to the current 6.1 and 6.7 inches on the iPhone 14 and 14 Pro series.

  6. Self-sealing suction cup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-sealing_suction_cup

    Inside the self-sealing suction cup, the plug is positioned close to the tube opening so that it can get sucked into the tube seal the hole when the central suction line is powered. A pair of springs connected to the suction cup's base helps maintain the plug's position, restoring the plug seal in the absence of object forces.

  7. Nano-suction technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nano-suction_technology

    Nano-suction is a technology that uses vacuum, negative fluid pressure and millions of nano-sized suction cups to securely adhere any object to a flat non-porous surface. When the nano-suction object is pressed against a flat surface, millions of miniature suction cups create a large vacuum, generating a strong suction force that can hold a ...

  8. Microsuction tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsuction_tape

    For micro-suction tape, the necessary force is proportional to the attachment surface area. Compared to a suction cup, the force is smaller for the tape (assuming the same attachment surface area) because only a portion of the surface area contains craters that form vacuum chambers, and the maximal force factor is determined by this portion.

  9. State of health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_health

    For example, when the capacity of a new battery is same as the nominal capacity as per the battery specification, it is said to be in optimal health (SoH = 100%). As the battery is further utilized in a device, its health as in its capacity and other useful parameters deteriorate till it reaches the end of life (SoH = ~70-80%).
