  2. Gas constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

    This disparity is not a significant departure from accuracy, and USSA1976 uses this value of R ∗ for all the calculations of the standard atmosphere. When using the ISO value of R , the calculated pressure increases by only 0.62 pascal at 11 kilometres (the equivalent of a difference of only 17.4 centimetres or 6.8 inches) and 0.292 Pa at 20 ...

  3. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    Calculating thermal conductance is crucial for designing effective heat sinks and cooling systems in electronic devices. Automotive design: Automotive engineers use thermal resistance to optimize the cooling system and prevent overheating in engines and other vehicle components. Evaluating thermal resistance helps in designing engine components ...

  4. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    The R-value is the building industry term [3] for thermal resistance "per unit area." [4] It is sometimes denoted RSI-value if the SI units are used. [5] An R-value can be given for a material (e.g. for polyethylene foam), or for an assembly of materials (e.g. a wall or a window). In the case of materials, it is often expressed in terms of R ...

  6. List of moments of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_moments_of_inertia

    Thin cylindrical shell with open ends, of radius r and mass m. This expression assumes that the shell thickness is negligible. It is a special case of the thick-walled cylindrical tube for r 1 = r 2. Also, a point mass m at the end of a rod of length r has this same moment of inertia and the value r is called the radius of gyration.

  7. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Since the plot of I versus V is a straight line, then it is also true that for any set of two different voltages V 1 and V 2 applied across a given device of resistance R, producing currents I 1 = V 1 /R and I 2 = V 2 /R, that the ratio (V 1 − V 2)/(I 1 − I 2) is also a constant equal to R.

  9. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured. Many of these are redundant, in the sense that they obey a known relationship with other physical ...
