  2. Silambu - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silambu

    The silambu is a hollow anklet filled with beads that produce noise when the wearer moves or dances. [2] It may be worn on the ankle or the leg. When worn on the leg, it is termed kālchilambu in Tamil. [3] Some varieties of silambu are made of copper and use iron balls to produce sound. [4] Others are made of silver. [5]

  3. Euler's three-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_three-body_problem

    The problem of two fixed centers conserves energy; in other words, the total energy is a constant of motion.The potential energy is given by =where represents the particle's position, and and are the distances between the particle and the centers of force; and are constants that measure the strength of the first and second forces, respectively.

  4. Higher-dimensional Einstein gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher-dimensional...

    At present, this work can probably be most fairly described as extended theoretical speculation. Currently, it has no direct observational and experimental support, in contrast to four-dimensional general relativity. However, this theoretical work has led to the possibility of proving the existence of extra dimensions.

  5. Work (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_(thermodynamics)

    Thermodynamic work is one of the principal kinds of process by which a thermodynamic system can interact with and transfer energy to its surroundings. This results in externally measurable macroscopic forces on the system's surroundings, which can cause mechanical work, to lift a weight, for example, [1] or cause changes in electromagnetic, [2] [3] [4] or gravitational [5] variables.

  6. Gravitational potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_potential

    The gravitational potential (V) at a location is the gravitational potential energy (U) at that location per unit mass: =, where m is the mass of the object. Potential energy is equal (in magnitude, but negative) to the work done by the gravitational field moving a body to its given position in space from infinity.

  7. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    The gravitational constant G is a key quantity in Newton's law of universal gravitation.. The gravitational constant is an empirical physical constant involved in the calculation of gravitational effects in Sir Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation and in Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity.

    Another order requires more federal workers to return to work in person. Extra energy. Trump also signed executive orders designed to spur American energy production, which is already at a record ...

  9. Scalar theories of gravitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_theories_of_gravitation

    The prototypical scalar theory of gravitation is Newtonian gravitation.In this theory, the gravitational interaction is completely described by the potential, which is required to satisfy the Poisson equation (with the mass density acting as the source of the field).
