    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_and_second_of_arc

    A second of arc, arcsecond (abbreviated as arcsec), or arc second, denoted by the symbol ″, [2] is a unit of angular measurement equal to ⁠ 1 / 60 ⁠ of a minute of arc, ⁠ 1 / 3600 ⁠ of a degree, [1] ⁠ 1 / 1 296 000 ⁠ of a turn, and ⁠ π / 648 000 ⁠ (about ⁠ 1 / 206 264.8 ⁠) of a radian.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ćuk_converter

    The Ćuk converter [1] (Serbo-Croatian:, English: / ˈ tʃ uː k /) is a type of buck-boost converter with low ripple current. [2] A Ćuk converter can be seen as a combination of boost converter and buck converter , having one switching device and a mutual capacitor, to couple the energy.

    Here Z F is the acoustic impedance of the film (Z F = ρ F c F = (ρ F G f) 1/2)= (ρ F /J f) 1/2), k F is the wave vector and d F is the film thickness. J f is the film's viscoelastic compliance, ρ F is the density. The poles of the tangent (k F d F = π/2) define the film resonances. [55] [56] At the film resonance, one has d F = λ/4. The ...

  5. Milliradian - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milliradian

    A milliradian (SI-symbol mrad, sometimes also abbreviated mil) is an SI derived unit for angular measurement which is defined as a thousandth of a radian (0.001 radian). ). Milliradians are used in adjustment of firearm sights by adjusting the angle of the sight compared to the barrel (up, down, left, or

  6. Equation of time - Wikipedia

    The correct branch of the multiple valued function arctan x to use is the one that makes ν a continuous function of E(M) starting from ν E=0 = 0. Thus for 0 ≤ E < π use arctan x = arctan x, and for π < E ≤ 2π use arctan x = arctan x + π. At the specific value E = π for which the argument of tan is infinite, use ν = E.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronvolt

    An electronvolt is the amount of energy gained or lost by a single electron when it moves through an electric potential difference of one volt.Hence, it has a value of one volt, which is 1 J/C, multiplied by the elementary charge e = 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 C. [2]

  9. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia
