The poise (symbol P; / p ɔɪ z, p w ɑː z /) is the unit of dynamic viscosity (absolute viscosity) in the centimetre–gram–second system of units (CGS). [1] It is named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille (see Hagen–Poiseuille equation).
cps ≡ 1 Hz = 1 cps = 1 Hz degree per second: deg/s ≡ 1 °/s ≡ 1/360 Hz = 0.002 7 Hz hertz (SI unit) Hz ≡ One cycle per second = 1 Hz = 1/s radian per second: rad/s ≡ 1/(2π) Hz ≈ 0.159 155 Hz: revolution per minute: rpm ≡ One rpm equals one rotation completed around a fixed axis in one minute of time. ≈ 0.104 719 755 rad/s
For dynamic viscosity, the SI unit is Pascal-second. In engineering, the unit is usually Poise or centiPoise, with 1 Poise = 0.1 Pascal-second, and 1 centiPoise = 0.01 Poise.
Counts per second (abbreviated to cps) is used for measurements when higher count rates are being encountered, or if hand held radiation survey instruments are being used which can be subject to rapid changes of count rate when the instrument is moved over a source of radiation in a survey area.
The direct-style factorial takes, as might be expected, a single argument; the CPS factorial& takes two: the argument and a continuation. Any function calling a CPS-ed function must either provide a new continuation or pass its own; any calls from a CPS-ed function to a non-CPS function will use implicit continuations.
In fluid dynamics, the pressure coefficient is a dimensionless number which describes the relative pressures throughout a flow field.The pressure coefficient is used in aerodynamics and hydrodynamics.
Here are the conversion factors for those various expressions of wind speed: 1 m/s = 2.237 statute mile/h = 1.944 knots 1 knot = 1.151 statute mile/h = 0.514 m/s 1 statute mile/h = 0.869 knots = 0.447 m/s. Note: 1 statute mile = 5,280 feet = 1,609 meters
The cycle per second is a once-common English name for the unit of frequency now known as the hertz (Hz). Cycles per second may be denoted by c.p.s., c/s, or, ambiguously, just "cycles" (Cyc., Cy., C, or c).
