The MythBusters calculated that the lethal amount of force required to kill a fish is 8.15 pounds per square inch (56.2 kPa). However, the instrument that measured pressure was not fast enough to register the impact of the bullet, so the MythBusters instead opted to use stickers that measured g-force .

Mesh is a measurement of particle size often used in determining the particle-size distribution of a granular material. For example, a sample from a truckload of peanuts may be placed atop a mesh with 5 mm openings. When the mesh is shaken, small broken pieces and dust pass through the mesh while whole peanuts are retained on the mesh.
HDPE is known for its high strength-to-density ratio. [4] The density of HDPE ranges from 930 to 970 kg/m 3. [5] Although the density of HDPE is only marginally higher than that of low-density polyethylene, HDPE has little branching, giving it stronger intermolecular forces and tensile strength (38 MPa versus 21 MPa) than LDPE.

Coutil may be made to be plain (similar to 100% cotton facing), satin, or brocade. It is common for coutil to have a herringbone texture, or a similar woven texture. Cotton coutil is a derivative of the common cotton fabric, which was used along with linen, cotton canvas, brocade and silk.
