  2. Root mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    In the physics of gas molecules, the root-mean-square speed is defined as the square root of the average squared-speed. The RMS speed of an ideal gas is calculated using the following equation: v RMS = 3 R T M {\displaystyle v_{\text{RMS}}={\sqrt {3RT \over M}}}

  3. Kinetic theory of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_theory_of_gases

    The most probable (or mode) speed is 81.6% of the root-mean-square speed , and the mean (arithmetic mean, or average) speed ¯ is 92.1% of the rms speed (isotropic distribution of speeds). See: Average, Root-mean-square speed; Arithmetic mean; Mean; Mode (statistics)

  4. Root mean square deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square_deviation

    In bioinformatics, the root mean square deviation of atomic positions is the measure of the average distance between the atoms of superimposed proteins. In structure based drug design , the RMSD is a measure of the difference between a crystal conformation of the ligand conformation and a docking prediction.

  5. Turbulence kinetic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbulence_kinetic_energy

    The TKE can be defined to be half the sum of the variances σ² (square of standard deviations σ) of the fluctuating velocity components: = (+ +) = ((′) ¯ + (′) ¯ + (′) ¯), where each turbulent velocity component is the difference between the instantaneous and the average velocity: ′ = ¯ (Reynolds decomposition).

  6. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    Equation [3] involves the average velocity ⁠ v + v 0 / 2 ⁠. Intuitively, the velocity increases linearly, so the average velocity multiplied by time is the distance traveled while increasing the velocity from v 0 to v, as can be illustrated graphically by plotting velocity against time as a straight line graph. Algebraically, it follows ...

  7. List of optics equations - Wikipedia

    Visulization of flux through differential area and solid angle. As always ^ is the unit normal to the incident surface A, = ^, and ^ is a unit vector in the direction of incident flux on the area element, θ is the angle between them.

  8. Thermal velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_velocity

    Thermal velocity or thermal speed is a typical velocity of the thermal motion of particles that make up a gas, liquid, etc. Thus, indirectly, thermal velocity is a measure of temperature. Technically speaking, it is a measure of the width of the peak in the Maxwell–Boltzmann particle velocity distribution.

  9. Glossary of calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_calculus

    Is a subfield of calculus [30] concerned with the study of the rates at which quantities change. It is one of the two traditional divisions of calculus, the other being integral calculus, the study of the area beneath a curve. [31] differential equation Is a mathematical equation that relates some function with its derivatives. In applications ...
