  2. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −2 m and 10 −1 m (1 cm and 1 dm). 1 cm10 millimeters; 1 cm – 0.39 inches; 1 cm – edge of a square of area 1 cm 2; 1 cm – edge of a cube of volume 1 mL; 1 cm – length of a coffee bean; 1 cm – approximate width of average fingernail

  3. List of Solar System objects by size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Solar_System...

    Many TNOs are often just assumed to have Pluto's density of 2.0 g/cm 3, but it is just as likely that they have a comet-like density of only 0.5 g/cm 3. [ 4 ] For example, if a TNO is incorrectly assumed to have a mass of 3.59 × 10 20 kg based on a radius of 350 km with a density of 2 g/cm 3 but is later discovered to have a radius of only 175 ...

  4. Peak ground acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_ground_acceleration

    Peak ground acceleration can be expressed in fractions of g (the standard acceleration due to Earth's gravity, equivalent to g-force) as either a decimal or percentage; in m/s 2 (1 g = 9.81 m/s 2); [7] or in multiples of Gal, where 1 Gal is equal to 0.01 m/s 2 (1 g = 981 Gal).

  5. Hydraulic jumps in rectangular channels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_Jumps_in...

    This can be seen in Figure 6 by the decrease in depth from y 1,q=30 to y 1,q=10 and the increase in depth between y 2,q=30 and y 2,q=10. From this analysis of the change in depth due to a change in flow rate, we can also imagine that the energy lost in a jump with a value of q = 10 ft 2 /s would be different from that of a jump with q = 30 ft 2 /s.

  6. Depth filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_filter

    The two conventional types of depth filter designs: the rapid and slow filters operate with velocities of 5–15 m/h and 0.1-0.2 m/h respectively; whereas pressurised sand filters have design flow rates of 238 L/min. [11] During operation the filter rate decreases due to increasing filter resistance as particulates get lodged within the media ...

  7. Grain size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grain_size

    Grain size (or particle size) is the diameter of individual grains of sediment, or the lithified particles in clastic rocks. The term may also be applied to other granular materials . This is different from the crystallite size, which refers to the size of a single crystal inside a particle or grain.

  8. Magnitude of eclipse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnitude_of_eclipse

    This applies to all celestial eclipses. The magnitude of a partial or annular solar eclipse is always between 0.0 and 1.0, while the magnitude of a total solar eclipse is always greater than or equal to 1.0, and has a theoretically maximum value of around 1.12.

  9. Wafer (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wafer_(electronics)

    The size of wafers for photovoltaics is 100–200 mm square and the thickness is 100–500 μm. [10] Electronics use wafer sizes from 100 to 450 mm diameter. The largest wafers made have a diameter of 450 mm, [11] but are not yet in general use.
