  2. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    Therefore, the spring constant k, and each element of the tensor κ, is measured in newtons per meter (N/m), or kilograms per second squared (kg/s 2). For continuous media, each element of the stress tensor σ is a force divided by an area; it is therefore measured in units of pressure, namely pascals (Pa, or N/m 2, or kg/(m·s 2).

  3. Compressibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility

    This pressure dependent transition occurs for atmospheric oxygen in the 2,500–4,000 K temperature range, and in the 5,000–10,000 K range for nitrogen. [ 7 ] In transition regions, where this pressure dependent dissociation is incomplete, both beta (the volume/pressure differential ratio) and the differential, constant pressure heat capacity ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermodynamic...

    Some constants, such as the ideal gas constant, R, do not describe the state of a system, and so are not properties. On the other hand, some constants, such as K f (the freezing point depression constant, or cryoscopic constant ), depend on the identity of a substance, and so may be considered to describe the state of a system, and therefore ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_equation

    A uniform bar, i.e. of constant cross-section, made from a linear elastic material has a stiffness K given by =, where A is the cross-sectional area, and E is the Young's modulus of the material. The wave equation becomes ∂ 2 u ( x , t ) ∂ t 2 = E A L M ∂ 2 u ( x , t ) ∂ x 2 . {\displaystyle {\frac {\partial ^{2}u(x,t)}{\partial t^{2 ...

  7. Bulk modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_modulus

    A material with a bulk modulus of 35 GPa loses one percent of its volume when subjected to an external pressure of 0.35 GPa (~ 3500 bar) (assumed constant or weakly pressure dependent bulk modulus). Approximate bulk modulus ( K ) for other substances

  8. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyle's_law

    where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, and k is a constant for a particular temperature and amount of gas. Boyle's law states that when the temperature of a given mass of confined gas is constant, the product of its pressure and volume is also constant. When comparing the same substance under two different sets of ...

  9. Reduced properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_properties

    The reduced temperature of a fluid is its actual temperature, divided by its critical temperature: [1] = where the actual temperature and critical temperature are expressed in absolute temperature scales (either Kelvin or Rankine). Both the reduced temperature and the reduced pressure are often used in thermodynamical formulas like the Peng ...
