  2. Hydraulic jumps in rectangular channels - Wikipedia

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

    As water hits the sink, it disperses, increasing in depth to a critical radius where the flow (supercritical with low depth, high velocity, and a Froude number greater than 1) must suddenly jump to a greater, subcritical depth (high depth, low velocity, and a Froude number less than 1) that is known to conserve momentum. Figure 2.

  3. Point (typography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(typography)

    In typography, the point is the smallest unit of measure. It is used for measuring font size, leading, and other items on a printed page. The size of the point has varied throughout printing's history. Since the 18th century, the size of a point has been between 0.18 and 0.4 millimeters.

  4. List of drill and tap sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_drill_and_tap_sizes

    Below is a comprehensive drill and tap size chart for all drills and taps: Inch, imperial, and metric, up to 36.5 millimetres (1.44 in) in diameter. In manufactured parts, holes with female screw threads are often needed; they accept male screws to facilitate the building and fastening of a finished assembly.

  5. ISO metric screw thread - Wikipedia

    The thread depth is 0.54125 × pitch. The outermost 1 ⁄ 8 and the innermost 1 ⁄ 4 of the height H of the V-shape are cut off from the profile. The relationship between the height H and the pitch P is found using the following equation where θ is half the included angle of the thread, in this case 30°: [ 3 ]

  6. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    In fractions like "2 nanometers per meter" (2 n m / m = 2 nano = 2×10 −9 = 2 ppb = 2 × 0.000 000 001), so the quotients are pure-number coefficients with positive values less than or equal to 1. When parts-per notations, including the percent symbol (%), are used in regular prose (as opposed to mathematical expressions), they are still pure ...

    Package size is no more than 1.2× the size of the silicon chip [16] [17] TCSP: True chip-size package: Package is same size as silicon [18] TDSP: True die-size package: Same as TCSP [18] WCSP or WL-CSP or WLCSP: Wafer-level chip-scale package

  8. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    Note that the R-value is the building industry term [3] for what is in other contexts called "thermal resistance" "for a unit area." [4] It is sometimes denoted RSI-value if the SI (metric) units are used. [5] [12] An R-value can be given for a material (e.g., for polyethylene foam), or for an assembly of materials (e.g., a wall or a window ...

  9. Decibel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decibel

    The decibel originates from methods used to quantify signal loss in telegraph and telephone circuits. Until the mid-1920s, the unit for loss was miles of standard cable (MSC). 1 MSC corresponded to the loss of power over one mile (approximately 1.6 km) of standard telephone cable at a frequency of 5000 radians per second (795.8 Hz), and matched closely the smallest attenuation detectable to a ...
