The Little Professor is a backwards-functioning calculator designed for children ages 5 to 9. Instead of providing the answer to a mathematical expression entered by the user, it generates unsolved expressions and prompts the user for the answer.
Nondimensionalization is the partial or full removal of physical dimensions from an equation involving physical quantities by a suitable substitution of variables.This technique can simplify and parameterize problems where measured units are involved.
Dimensionless quantities, or quantities of dimension one, [1] are quantities implicitly defined in a manner that prevents their aggregation into units of measurement. [2] [3] Typically expressed as ratios that align with another system, these quantities do not necessitate explicitly defined units.
Rockwell scale – Hugh M. (1890–1957) and Stanley P. (1886–1940) Rockwell: mechanical hardness (indentation hardness of a material) Rolling resistance coefficient: C rr = vehicle dynamics (ratio of force needed for motion of a wheel over the normal force)
Examples include a 3-dimensional scale model of a building or the scale drawings of the elevations or plans of a building. [1] In such cases the scale is dimensionless and exact throughout the model or drawing. The scale can be expressed in four ways: in words (a lexical scale), as a ratio, as a fraction and as a graphical (bar) scale.
unitless: 1: Magnetic flux: Φ: Measure of magnetism, taking account of the strength and the extent of a magnetic field: weber (Wb) L 2 M T −2 I −1: scalar Mass fraction: x: Mass of a substance as a fraction of the total mass kg/kg 1: intensive (Mass) Density (or volume density) ρ: Mass per unit volume kg/m 3: L −3 M: intensive Mean ...
Genius (also known as the Genius Math Tool) is a free open-source numerical computing environment and programming language, [2] similar in some aspects to MATLAB, GNU Octave, Mathematica and Maple. Genius is aimed at mathematical experimentation rather than computationally intensive tasks. It is also very useful as just a calculator.
In synoptic scale we can expect horizontal velocities about U = 10 1 m.s −1 and vertical about W = 10 −2 m.s −1. Horizontal scale is L = 10 6 m and vertical scale is H = 10 4 m. Typical time scale is T = L/U = 10 5 s. Pressure differences in troposphere are ΔP = 10 4 Pa and density of air ρ = 10 0 kg⋅m −3. Other physical properties ...
