  2. Reachability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reachability

    A vertex can reach a vertex (and is reachable from ) if there exists a sequence of adjacent vertices (i.e. a walk) which starts with and ends with . In an undirected graph, reachability between all pairs of vertices can be determined by identifying the connected components of the graph.

  3. Point of sail - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_of_sail

    A given point of sail (beating, close reach, beam reach, broad reach, and running downwind) is defined in reference to the true wind—the wind felt by a stationary observer. The motive power , and thus appropriate position of the sails, is determined by the apparent wind : the wind relative to an observer on the sailing craft.

  4. Third law of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_law_of_thermodynamics

    The entropy of a closed system, determined relative to this zero point, is then the absolute entropy of that system. Mathematically, the absolute entropy of any system at zero temperature is the natural log of the number of ground states times the Boltzmann constant k B = 1.38 × 10 −23 J K −1.

  5. Zero-point energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-point_energy

    Zero-point energy (ZPE) is the lowest possible energy that a quantum mechanical system may have. Unlike in classical mechanics, quantum systems constantly fluctuate in their lowest energy state as described by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. [1] Therefore, even at absolute zero, atoms and molecules retain some vibrational motion.

  6. Reach (geography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reach_(geography)

    A reach may be an expanse, or widening, of a stream or river channel. This commonly occurs after the river or stream is dammed. A reach is similar to an arm, though an arm may bend and thus have multiple reaches. The term "reach" can also refer to a level stretch, as between river rapids or locks in a canal.

  7. Absolute zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_zero

    Absolute zero is the lowest limit of the thermodynamic temperature scale; a state at which the enthalpy and entropy of a cooled ideal gas reach their minimum value. The fundamental particles of nature have minimum vibrational motion, retaining only quantum mechanical, zero-point energy -induced particle motion.

  9. Reorder point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reorder_point

    By the time the inventory level reaches zero towards the end of the seventh day from placing the order materials will reach and there is no cause for concern. Reorder point = Average Lead Time*Average Demand + Service Level* √ Avg. Lead Time*Standard Deviation of Demand 2 + Avg. Demand 2 *Standard Deviation of Lead Time 2 [2]
