  2. Roof pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_pitch

    Buffalo, New York and Montreal, Quebec, Canada, specify 6 in 12, a pitch of approximately 26.6 degrees. [3] A flat roof includes pitches as low as 1 ⁄ 2:12 to 2:12 (1 in 24 to 1 in 6), which are barely capable of properly shedding water. Such low-slope roofs (up to 4:12 (1 in 3)) require special materials and techniques to avoid leaks. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cent_(music)

    Ellis defined the pitch of a musical note in his 1880 work History of Musical Pitch [5] to be "the number of double or complete vibrations, backwards and forwards, made in each second by a particle of air while the note is heard". [6] He later defined musical pitch to be "the pitch, or V [for "double vibrations"] of any named musical note which ...

    The major minus pitch technique also works for inch-based threads, but you must first calculate the pitch by converting the fraction of threads-per-inch (TPI) into a decimal. For example, a screw with a pitch of 1/20 in (20 threads per inch) has a pitch of 0.050 in and a 1 ⁄ 13 in pitch (13 threads per inch) has a pitch of 0.077 in.

  5. Unified Thread Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Thread_Standard

    The standard designation for a UTS thread is a number indicating the nominal (major) diameter of the thread, followed by the pitch measured in threads per inch.For diameters smaller than ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ inch, the diameter is indicated by an integer number defined in the standard; for all other diameters, the inch figure is given.

    Set 3-1 has three possible rotations/inversions; the normal form (left) is the most compact, corresponding to the smallest sectorIn musical set theory, a Forte number is the pair of numbers Allen Forte assigned to the prime form of each pitch class set of three or more members in The Structure of Atonal Music (1973, ISBN 0-300-02120-8).

  7. Pitch interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_interval

    The ordered pitch-class interval describes the number of ascending semitones from one pitch-class to the next, ordered from lowest to highest. Since pitch-classes have octave equivalence, the ordered pitch -class interval can be computed mathematically as "the absolute value of the difference between the two pitch-classes modulo 12".

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_scale

    The chromatic scale is a musical scale with twelve pitches, each a semitone, also known as a half-step, above or below its adjacent pitches.As a result, in 12-tone equal temperament (the most common tuning in Western music), the chromatic scale covers all 12 of the available pitches.
