  2. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

  3. Q Score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_Score

    The Q Score is a metric that determines a "quotient" ("Q") factor through mail and online panelists who make up representative samples of the population. The score identifies the familiarity of an athlete, brand, celebrity, poet, entertainment offering (e.g., television show), or licensed property, and measures the appeal of each among people ...

  4. Q factor (bicycles) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor_(bicycles)

    The Q factor is an important factor affecting how close the pedals are laterally, and therefore the affects the spread of the riders legs. The Q factor or quack factor [1] [2] of a bicycle is the distance between the pedal attachment points on the crank arms, when measured parallel to the bottom bracket axle. [3]

  5. Fusion energy gain factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_energy_gain_factor

    The explosion of the Ivy Mike hydrogen bomb. The hydrogen bomb was the first device able to achieve fusion energy gain factor significantly larger than 1.. A fusion energy gain factor, usually expressed with the symbol Q, is the ratio of fusion power produced in a nuclear fusion reactor to the power required to maintain the plasma in steady state.

  6. Transmissibility (vibration) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmissibility_(vibration)

    There is no unit designation for transmissibility, although it may sometimes be referred to as the Q factor. The transmissibility is used in calculation of passive hon efficiency. The lesser the transmissibility the better is the damping or the isolation system.

  7. Band-pass filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band-pass_filter

    A band-pass filter can be characterized by its Q factor. The Q-factor is the reciprocal of the fractional bandwidth. A high-Q filter will have a narrow passband and a low-Q filter will have a wide passband. These are respectively referred to as narrow-band and wide-band filters.

    What is a 1.35 factor rate?A 1.35 factor rate is a mid-range rate lenders charge to borrow money. Factor rates typically fall between 1.1 and 1.5. With a 1.35 factor rate, it will cost $35,000 to ...

  9. Q methodology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_methodology

    Q, on the other hand, looks for correlations between subjects across a sample of variables. Q factor analysis reduces the many individual viewpoints of the subjects down to a few "factors," which are claimed to represent shared ways of thinking. It is sometimes said that Q factor analysis is R factor analysis with the data table turned sideways.
