  2. Weight transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_transfer

    Weight transfer is generally of far less practical importance than load transfer, for cars and SUVs at least. For instance in a 0.9g turn, a car with a track of 1650 mm and a CoM height of 550 mm will see a load transfer of 30% of the vehicle weight, that is the outer wheels will see 60% more load than before, and the inners 60% less.

  3. Mass transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_transfer

    Mass transfer is the net movement of mass from one location (usually meaning stream, phase, fraction, or component) to another. Mass transfer occurs in many processes, such as absorption, evaporation, drying, precipitation, membrane filtration, and distillation. Mass transfer is used by different scientific disciplines for different processes ...

  4. Weight transfer (dancing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_transfer_(dancing)

    In the full weight transfer, the center of gravity becomes vertically projected onto another body part (e.g., foot) freeing the first one so that it may be freely lifted or moved. (In fact, lifting the foot off the ground is a simple test often suggested for the beginners to ensure that they have completed the practiced dance move and their ...

  5. Weight transfer (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    Weight transfer is the redistribution of weight supported by each tire during acceleration of an automobile. Weight transfer may also refer to:

  6. Weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight

    The SI unit of weight is the same as that of force: the newton (N) – a derived unit which can also be expressed in SI base units as kg⋅m/s 2 (kilograms times metres per second squared). [21] In commercial and everyday use, the term "weight" is usually used to mean mass, and the verb "to weigh" means "to determine the mass of" or "to have a ...

  7. Center of mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_mass

    This toy uses the principles of center of mass to keep balance when sitting on a finger. In physics, the center of mass of a distribution of mass in space (sometimes referred to as the barycenter or balance point) is the unique point at any given time where the weighted relative position of the distributed mass sums to zero.

  8. Weight management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_management

    The science behind weight management is complex, but one of the key concepts that governs weight management is Energy Balance. [9] Energy Balance is the phrase used to describe the difference between the number of calories a person consumes and the number of calories that same person expends (a.k.a. burns) in a given time period. [ 9 ]

  9. Chain transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_transfer

    In polymer chemistry, chain transfer is a polymerization reaction by which the activity of a growing polymer chain is transferred to another molecule: [1] [2] + + where • is the active center, P is the initial polymer chain, X is the end group, and R is the substituent to which the active center is transferred.
