    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_power_(algebra)

    Fifth power (algebra) In arithmetic and algebra, the fifth power or sursolid[1] of a number n is the result of multiplying five instances of n together: n5 = n × n × n × n × n. Fifth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its fourth power, or the square of a number by its cube. The sequence of fifth powers of integers is:

  3. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    v. t. e. Euler's formula, named after Leonhard Euler, is a mathematical formula in complex analysis that establishes the fundamental relationship between the trigonometric functions and the complex exponential function. Euler's formula states that, for any real number x, one has where e is the base of the natural logarithm, i is the imaginary ...

  4. Power of two - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_two

    A power of two is a number of the form 2n where n is an integer, that is, the result of exponentiation with number two as the base and integer n as the exponent. Powers of two with non-negative exponents are integers: 20 = 1, 21 = 2, and 2n is two multiplied by itself n times. [1][2] The first ten powers of 2 for non-negative values of n are:

  5. Order of magnitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_magnitude

    [contradictory] For example, the number 4 000 000 has a logarithm (in base 10) of 6.602; its order of magnitude is 6. When truncating, a number of this order of magnitude is between 10 6 and 10 7. In a similar example, with the phrase "seven-figure income", the order of magnitude is the number of figures minus one, so it is very easily ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    In mathematics, the root mean square (abbrev. RMS, RMS or rms) of a set of numbers is the square root of the set's mean square. [1] Given a set , its RMS is denoted as either or . The RMS is also known as the quadratic mean (denoted ), [2][3] a special case of the generalized mean. The RMS of a continuous function is denoted and can be defined ...

    1 m −1. Illustration of the relationship between optical power in dioptres and focal length in metres. A dioptre (British spelling) or diopter (American spelling), symbol dpt or D, is a unit of measurement with dimension of reciprocal length, equivalent to one reciprocal metre, 1 dpt = 1 m−1. It is normally used to express the optical power ...
