  2. Surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_area

    A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...

  3. Solid-state physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_physics

    Solid-state physics is the study of rigid matter, or solids, through methods such as solid-state chemistry, quantum mechanics, crystallography, electromagnetism, and metallurgy. It is the largest branch of condensed matter physics. Solid-state physics studies how the large-scale properties of solid materials result from their atomic-scale ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_of_matter

    Chain-melted state: Metals, such as potassium, at high temperature and pressure, present properties of both a solid and liquid. Wigner crystal: a crystalline phase of low-density electrons. Hexatic state, a state of matter that is between the solid and the isotropic liquid phases in two dimensional systems of particles. Ferroics

  5. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(chemistry)

    Depending on a solid surface's ability to successfully form a conjugate base by absorbing an electrically neutral acid, basic strength of the surface is determined. [15] The "number of basic sites per unit surface area of the solid" is used to express how much basic strength is found on a solid base catalyst. [15]

  6. Goldberg polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldberg_polyhedron

    For class 3 forms, the whirl operator, w, generates GP(2,1), with a T multiplier of 7. A clockwise and counterclockwise whirl generator, w w = wrw generates GP (7,0) in class 1. In general, a whirl can transform a GP( a , b ) into GP( a + 3 b ,2 ab ) for a > b and the same chiral direction.

    Twin sisters in Wisconsin are proving there is no one more supportive than a twin, especially when they learn you're having a baby.. Payton Meulemans, 26, recorded the moment she told her twin ...

  8. Solid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_mechanics

    A solid is a material that can support a substantial amount of shearing force over a given time scale during a natural or industrial process or action. This is what distinguishes solids from fluids, because fluids also support normal forces which are those forces that are directed perpendicular to the material plane across from which they act and normal stress is the normal force per unit area ...
