  2. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    Leonardo da Vinci drew the Vitruvian Man within a square of side 1.83 m (6 ft 0 in) and a circle about 1.2 m (3 ft 11 in) in radius. To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between one meter and ten meters. Light, in vacuum, travels 1 meter in 1 ⁄ 299,792,458, or 3.3356409519815E-9 of a second.

    The statohm is a unit of electric resistance equal to 1 statV/statA, corresponding to ~ 898.755 1787 GΩ. The statsiemens or statmho is a unit of electric conductance equal to 1 statA/statV, corresponding to ~ 1.112 646 pS. [6] The stathenry is a unit of electric inductance equal to 1 statV·s/statA, corresponding to ~ 898.755 1787 GH. [7] [6] [a]

    For example, a length that is significantly longer or shorter than 1 metre can be represented in units that are a power of 10 or 1000 metres. This differs from many older systems in which the ratio of different units varied. For example, 12 inches is one foot, but the larger unit in the same system, the mile is not a power of 12 feet. It is ...

  5. Lagrange's four-square theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange's_four-square_theorem

    For this purpose, we consider for each x i the y i which is in the same residue class modulo m and between (–m + 1)/2 and m/2 (possibly included). It follows that y 1 2 + y 2 2 + y 3 2 + y 4 2 = mr, for some strictly positive integer r less than m. Finally, another appeal to Euler's four-square identity shows that mpmr = z 1 2 + z 2 2 + z 3 2 ...
