  2. Grade (climbing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(climbing)

    The V-scale doesn't consider risk and is purely focused on the technical difficulty of the movements. [2] The V-scale is the dominant scale in North America, and it and the Font scale are the most dominant systems worldwide; beyond the easiest grades, the two systems can be almost exactly aligned in comparison tables. [2] [14]

    Thus the scale and approximate prototype gauge are represented, with the model gauge used (9 mm for H0e gauge; 6.5 mm for H0f gauge) being implied. [2] The scales used include the general European modelling range of Z, N, TT, H0, 0 and also the large model engineering gauges of I to X, including 3 + 1 ⁄ 2, 5, 7 + 1 ⁄ 4 and 10 + 1 ⁄ 4-inch ...

    v: finish: A letter v (Latin small letter v) written on a line representing a surface is a way to indicate that the surface is to be machined rather than left in the as-cast or as-forged state. The older symbol for this was a small script (italic) f (see herein f). Later the ASA convened upon a letter V (specifically a sans-serif V) touching ...

    The following table lists the names of small numbers used in the long and short scales, along with the power of 10, engineering notation, and International System of Units (SI) symbols and prefixes. [1] [page needed] [2] [page needed] [3] [page needed] [4] [5] [6] [7]

  6. Seismic magnitude scales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_magnitude_scales

    The original "body-wave magnitude" – mB or m B (uppercase "B") – was developed by Gutenberg 1945c and Gutenberg & Richter 1956 [25] to overcome the distance and magnitude limitations of the M L scale inherent in the use of surface waves. mB is based on the P and S waves, measured over a longer period, and does not saturate until around M 8.

  7. Organ flue pipe scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_flue_pipe_scaling

    Töpfer's system provides a reference scale, from which the scale of other pipe ranks can be described by means of half-tone deviations larger or smaller (indicated by the abbreviation ht). A rank that also halves in diameter at the 17th note but is somewhat wider could be described as "+ 2 ht" meaning that the pipe corresponding to the note "D ...

    lb – binary logarithm (log 2). (Also written as ld.) lcm – lowest common multiple (a.k.a. least common multiple) of two numbers. LCHS – locally compact Hausdorff second countable. ld – binary logarithm (log 2). (Also written as lb.) lsc – lower semi-continuity. lerp – linear interpolation. [5] lg – common logarithm (log 10) or ...
