    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teaspoon

    A teaspoon (tsp.) is a small spoon that can be used to stir a cup of tea or coffee, or as a tool for measuring volume. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The size of teaspoons ranges from about 2.5 to 7.3 ml (about 0·088 to 0·257 imperial fluid ounce or 0·085 to 0·247 US fluid ounce).

  3. Sample-rate conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample-rate_conversion

    To convert a 24 frame/sec movie to 60 field/sec television, for example, alternate movie frames are shown 2 and 3 times, respectively. For 50 Hz systems such as PAL each frame is shown twice. Since 50 is not exactly 2×24, the movie will run 50/48 = 4% faster, and the audio pitch will be 4% higher, an effect known as PAL speed-up .

  4. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    The formula is derived from the speed of light and the length of the sequence [citation needed]: M U R = ( c ∗ 0.5 ∗ T S P ) {\displaystyle MUR=\left(c*0.5*TSP\right)} where c is the speed of light , usually in metres per microsecond, and TSP is the addition of all the positions of the stagger sequence, usually in microseconds.

  5. Methods of computing square roots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing...

    A method analogous to piece-wise linear approximation but using only arithmetic instead of algebraic equations, uses the multiplication tables in reverse: the square root of a number between 1 and 100 is between 1 and 10, so if we know 25 is a perfect square (5 × 5), and 36 is a perfect square (6 × 6), then the square root of a number greater than or equal to 25 but less than 36, begins with ...

    P and P-dot can be also used to calculate the characteristic age of a pulsar, but gives an estimate which is somewhat larger than the true age when it is applied to young pulsars. [ 59 ] P and P -dot can also be combined with neutron star's moment of inertia to estimate a quantity called spin-down luminosity , which is given the symbol E ...

  7. List of unusual units of measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unusual_units_of...

    The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) defines the "food labeling ounce" as 30 ml (1.1 imp fl oz; 1.0 US fl oz), slightly larger than the 29.6 ml (1.04 imp fl oz; 1.00 US fl oz) fluid ounce. [37] Several Dutch units of measurement have been replaced with informal metric equivalents, including the ons or ounce.

  8. Air quality index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_quality_index

    Air pollutants vary in potency, and the function used to convert from air pollutant concentration to AQI varies by pollutant. Its air quality index values are typically grouped into ranges. Each range is assigned a descriptor, a color code, and a standardized public health advisory. The AQI can increase due to an increase of air emissions.

  9. Standard drink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_drink

    A 750 ml (25 US fl oz) bottle of 12% ABV wine contains 9 units; 16% ABV wine contains 12 units; a fortified wine such as port at 20% ABV contains 15 units. 100 ml (3.4 US fl oz) glass of wine (13.5% alcohol) = 1 Australian standard drink; 150 ml (5.1 US fl oz) glass of wine (13.5% alcohol) = 1.5 Australian standard drinks
