  2. Power (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(statistics)

    In the trivial case of zero effect size, power is at a minimum and equal to the significance level of the test , in this example 0.05. For finite sample sizes and non-zero variability, it is the case here, as is typical, that power cannot be made equal to 1 except in the trivial case where α = 1 {\displaystyle \alpha =1} so the null is always ...

  3. Power law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_law

    Mathematically, a strict power law cannot be a probability distribution, but a distribution that is a truncated power function is possible: () = for > where the exponent (Greek letter alpha, not to be confused with scaling factor used above) is greater than 1 (otherwise the tail has infinite area), the minimum value is needed otherwise the ...

  4. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    Power is the rate with respect to time at which work is done; it is the time derivative of work: =, where P is power, W is work, and t is time.. We will now show that the mechanical power generated by a force F on a body moving at the velocity v can be expressed as the product: = =

  5. Expected value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expected_value

    Let 1 A denote the indicator function of an event A, then E[1 A] is given by the probability of A. This is nothing but a different way of stating the expectation of a Bernoulli random variable , as calculated in the table above.

  6. Notation in probability and statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notation_in_probability...

    Greek letters (e.g. θ, β) are commonly used to denote unknown parameters (population parameters). [3]A tilde (~) denotes "has the probability distribution of". Placing a hat, or caret (also known as a circumflex), over a true parameter denotes an estimator of it, e.g., ^ is an estimator for .

  7. Microstate (statistical mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microstate_(statistical...

    In contrast, the macrostate of a system refers to its macroscopic properties, such as its temperature, pressure, volume and density. [1] Treatments on statistical mechanics [ 2 ] [ 3 ] define a macrostate as follows: a particular set of values of energy, the number of particles, and the volume of an isolated thermodynamic system is said to ...

  8. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.
