  2. Punch (tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punch_(tool)

    A prick punch is similar to a center punch but used for marking out. It has a sharper angled tip to produce a narrower and deeper indentation. The indentation can then be enlarged with a center punch for drilling. The tip of a prick punch is 60 degrees (the angle depends on what type of prick punch one is using). [1] It is also known as a dot ...

    Meaning SI unit of measure alpha: alpha particle: angular acceleration: radian per second squared (rad/s 2) fine-structure constant: unitless beta: velocity in terms of the speed of light c: unitless beta particle: gamma: Lorentz factor: unitless photon: gamma ray: shear strain: radian

  4. Glossary of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_physics

    A branch of physics that studies atoms as isolated systems of electrons and an atomic nucleus. Compare nuclear physics. atomic structure atomic weight (A) The sum total of protons (or electrons) and neutrons within an atom. audio frequency A periodic vibration whose frequency is in the band audible to the average human, the human hearing range.

  5. Automatic center punch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_center_punch

    The punch; The intermediate rod (tumbler) The hammer (hammer mass) The hammer mass is spring-loaded from the back of the punch by a large spring. (The spring's preload compression can usually be adjusted by loosening or tightening the end cap at the back-most portion of the punch, to decrease or increase the force of the punch.)

  6. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Comparison between electron dot diagrams and Lewis structure. For a neutral molecule, the total number of electrons represented in a Lewis structure is equal to the sum of the numbers of valence electrons on each individual atom. Non-valence electrons are not represented in Lewis structures.

  7. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

    The physics convention. Spherical coordinates (r, θ, φ) as commonly used: (ISO 80000-2:2019): radial distance r (slant distance to origin), polar angle θ (angle with respect to positive polar axis), and azimuthal angle φ (angle of rotation from the initial meridian plane). This is the convention followed in this article.

  8. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_angle

    The solid angle of a sphere measured from any point in its interior is 4 π sr. The solid angle subtended at the center of a cube by one of its faces is one-sixth of that, or 2 π /3 sr. The solid angle subtended at the corner of a cube (an octant) or spanned by a spherical octant is π /2 sr, one-eight of the solid angle of a sphere. [1]

  9. Bra–ket notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bra–ket_notation

    The notation uses angle brackets, and , and a vertical bar |, to construct "bras" and "kets". A ket is of the form | v {\displaystyle |v\rangle } . Mathematically it denotes a vector , v {\displaystyle {\boldsymbol {v}}} , in an abstract (complex) vector space V {\displaystyle V} , and physically it represents a state of some quantum system.
