  2. V speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_speeds

    It is the speed above which the takeoff will continue even if an engine fails or another problem occurs, such as a blown tire. [9] The speed will vary among aircraft types and varies according to factors such as aircraft weight, runway length, wing flap setting, engine thrust used and runway surface contamination; thus, it must be determined by ...

  3. Rate of climb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_climb

    In aeronautics, the rate of climb (RoC) is an aircraft's vertical speed, that is the positive or negative rate of altitude change with respect to time. [1] In most ICAO member countries, even in otherwise metric countries, this is usually expressed in feet per minute (ft/min); elsewhere, it is commonly expressed in metres per second (m/s).

  4. Length contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_contraction

    For mathematical consistency, Lorentz proposed a new time variable, the "local time", called that because it depended on the position of a moving body, following the relation t ′ = t − vx/c 2. [8] Lorentz considered local time not to be "real"; rather, it represented an ad hoc change of variable. [9]: 51, 80

  5. Lorentz transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_transformation

    in calculations and experiments, it is lengths between two points or time intervals that are measured or of interest (e.g., the length of a moving vehicle, or time duration it takes to travel from one place to another),

  7. Vincenty's formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincenty's_formulae

    Vincenty's formulae are two related iterative methods used in geodesy to calculate the distance between two points on the surface of a spheroid, developed by Thaddeus Vincenty (1975a). They are based on the assumption that the figure of the Earth is an oblate spheroid, and hence are more accurate than methods that assume a spherical Earth, such ...

  8. Tsiolkovsky rocket equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation

    A rocket's required mass ratio as a function of effective exhaust velocity ratio. The classical rocket equation, or ideal rocket equation is a mathematical equation that describes the motion of vehicles that follow the basic principle of a rocket: a device that can apply acceleration to itself using thrust by expelling part of its mass with high velocity and can thereby move due to the ...

    Sure, 2500 RSun does seem insane, but that's what the Wikipedia calculations gave us, using the values given in the VizieR table from Gordon et al 2016. GurrenLagannTSS 00:48, 3 August 2020 (UTC) All stars are cited. There's nothing wrong with that. All we need to do is template everything.PNSMurthy 23:02, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
