  2. Radar chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_chart

    The radar chart is a chart and/or plot that consists of a sequence of equi-angular spokes, called radii, with each spoke representing one of the variables. The data length of a spoke is proportional to the magnitude of the variable for the data point relative to the maximum magnitude of the variable across all data points.

  3. Drag curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_curve

    Since the weight is constant, the first of these equations determines how C L falls with increasing speed. Putting these C L values into the second equation with C D from the drag curve produces the power curve. The low speed region shows a fall in lift induced drag, through a minimum followed by an increase in profile drag at higher speeds.

  4. Speed and rate of climb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_climb

    In aeronautics, the rate of climb (RoC) is an aircraft's vertical speed, that is the positive or negative rate of altitude change with respect to time. [1] In most ICAO member countries, even in otherwise metric countries, this is usually expressed in feet per minute (ft/min); elsewhere, it is commonly expressed in metres per second (m/s).

  5. Polar diagram (sailing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_diagram_(sailing)

    A polar diagram, or polar plot, is a graph that shows a sailboat's potential speed over a range of wind speeds and relative wind angles. [1] It normally consists of the right side of a line chart with the radius representing the yacht speed and the angle representing the wind direction blowing from top to bottom. Several lines are normally ...

  6. Velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity

    The scalar absolute value of velocity is called speed, being a coherent derived unit whose quantity is measured in the SI (metric system) as metres per second (m/s or m⋅s −1). For example, "5 metres per second" is a scalar, whereas "5 metres per second east" is a vector.

  7. Wikipedia:Graphs and charts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Graphs_and_charts

    The R programming language can be used for creating Wikipedia graphs. The Google Chart API allows a variety of graphs to be created. Livegap Charts creates line, bar, spider, polar-area and pie charts, and can export them as images without needing to download any tools. Veusz is a free scientific graphing tool that can produce 2D and 3D plots ...

  8. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

    Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object. (Velocity is on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Multiplying the velocity by the time, the time cancels out, and only displacement remains.)

  9. Amdahl's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl's_law

    For example, assume that we are given a serial task which is split into four consecutive parts, whose percentages of execution time are p1 = 0.11, p2 = 0.18, p3 = 0.23, and p4 = 0.48 respectively. Then we are told that the 1st part is not sped up, so s 1 = 1 , while the 2nd part is sped up 5 times, so s 2 = 5 , the 3rd part is sped up 20 times ...
