  2. Multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_inverse

    For the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. For example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth (1/5 or 0.2), and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4. The reciprocal function, the function f(x) that maps x to 1/x, is one of the simplest examples of a function which is its own inverse (an involution).

  3. Electric potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_potential

    In classical electrostatics, the electrostatic field is a vector quantity expressed as the gradient of the electrostatic potential, which is a scalar quantity denoted by V or occasionally φ, [1] equal to the electric potential energy of any charged particle at any location (measured in joules) divided by the charge of that particle (measured ...

  4. Division by zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero

    For example, using single-precision IEEE arithmetic, if x = −2 −149, then x/2 underflows to −0, and dividing 1 by this result produces 1/(x/2) = −∞. The exact result −2 150 is too large to represent as a single-precision number, so an infinity of the same sign is used instead to indicate overflow.

  5. End correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_correction

    This impedance represents the ratio of acoustic pressure at the piston, divided by the flow rate induced by it. The air speed is typically assumed to be uniform across the tube end. This is a good approximation, but not exactly true in reality, since air viscosity reduces the flow rate in the boundary layer very close to the tube surface.

  6. Identity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_(mathematics)

    Visual proof of the Pythagorean identity: for any angle , the point (,) = (⁡, ⁡) lies on the unit circle, which satisfies the equation + =.Thus, ⁡ + ⁡ =. In mathematics, an identity is an equality relating one mathematical expression A to another mathematical expression B, such that A and B (which might contain some variables) produce the same value for all values of the variables ...

  7. Bipartite graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipartite_graph

    A complete bipartite graph with m = 5 and n = 3 The Heawood graph is bipartite.. In the mathematical field of graph theory, a bipartite graph (or bigraph) is a graph whose vertices can be divided into two disjoint and independent sets and , that is, every edge connects a vertex in to one in .

  8. Mathematical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_constant

    The circumference of a circle with diameter 1 is π.. A mathematical constant is a number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a special symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]

  9. Percentage in point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage_in_point

    Pip Value=(size of a Pip)/(Exchange Rate)*(Lot Size) [6] For example, .0001 divided by a USD/CAD exchange rate of 1.3600 and then multiplied by a standard lot size of 100,000 results in a pip value of $7.35. Having 100,000 USD bought against the Canadian dollar at 1.3600 and sold at 1.3601, gives a profit of 1 pip or $7.35.
