    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0.999...

    In 1802, H. Goodwyn published an observation on the appearance of 9s in the repeating-decimal representations of fractions whose denominators are certain prime numbers. [46] Examples include: = 0. 142857 and 142 + 857 = 999. = 0. 01369863 and 0136 + 9863 = 9999.

    [29] [6] The equation varies depending on the units and approximations used, but in its simplest form is given by: [30] = where: EBAC is the estimated blood alcohol concentration (in g/L) A is the mass of alcohol consumed (g).

  4. Radon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radon

    The [RnF] + ion is believed to form by the following reaction: [27] Rn (g) + 2 [O 2] + [SbF 6] − (s) → [RnF] + [Sb 2 F 11] − (s) + 2 O 2 (g) For this reason, antimony pentafluoride together with chlorine trifluoride and N 2 F 2 Sb 2 F 11 have been considered for radon gas removal in uranium mines due to the formation of radon–fluorine ...

    Another matrix serves as a key tool for describing the scattering experiments that form the cornerstone of experimental particle physics: Collision reactions such as occur in particle accelerators, where non-interacting particles head towards each other and collide in a small interaction zone, with a new set of non-interacting particles as the ...

  7. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    Although convective heat transfer can be derived analytically through dimensional analysis, exact analysis of the boundary layer, approximate integral analysis of the boundary layer and analogies between energy and momentum transfer, these analytic approaches may not offer practical solutions to all problems when there are no mathematical models applicable.

    Presently the ecliptic latitude is 43.5° South, but it has decreased by a fraction of a degree since Ptolemy's time due to proper motion.) In Ptolemy's time, Alpha Centauri was visible from Alexandria, Egypt, at 31° N, but, due to precession, its declination is now –60° 51′ South, and it can no longer be seen at that latitude.

  9. COVID-19 testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_testing

    Antibody tests can be used to assess what fraction of a population has once been infected, which can then be used to calculate the disease's mortality rate. [5] They can also be used to determine how much antibody is contained in a unit of convalescent plasma, for COVID-19 treatment, or to verify if a given vaccine generates an adequate immune ...
