  2. Bulletproof vest - Wikipedia

    Their program adopted a rigorous scientific approach and collected data on human attack capacity. [69] Their ergonomic study suggested three levels of threat: 25, 35 and 45 joules of impact energy. In addition to impact energy attack, velocities were measured and were found to be 10–20 m/s (much faster than the California test).

  3. M1 Abrams - Wikipedia

    This gives it a governed top speed of 45 mph (72 km/h) on paved roads, and 30 mph (48 km/h) cross-country. With the engine governor removed, speeds of around 60 mph (97 km/h) are possible on an improved surface.

  4. Potency (pharmacology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potency_(pharmacology)

    In pharmacology, potency or biological potency [1] is a measure of a drug's biological activity expressed in terms of the dose required to produce a pharmacological effect of given intensity. [2]

  5. Equianalgesic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equianalgesic

    Acute use (1–3 days) yields a potency about 1.5× stronger than that of morphine and chronic use (7 days+) yields a potency about 2.5 to 5× that of morphine. Similarly, the effect of tramadol increases after consecutive dosing due to the accumulation of its active metabolite and an increase of the oral bioavailability in chronic use.

  6. Password strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_strength

    While the strength of randomly chosen passwords against a brute-force attack can be calculated with precision, determining the strength of human-generated passwords is difficult. Typically, humans are asked to choose a password, sometimes guided by suggestions or restricted by a set of rules, when creating a new account for a computer system or ...

  7. Key size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_size

    Key length defines the upper-bound on an algorithm's security (i.e. a logarithmic measure of the fastest known attack against an algorithm), because the security of all algorithms can be violated by brute-force attacks. Ideally, the lower-bound on an algorithm's security is by design equal to the key length (that is, the algorithm's design does ...

  8. Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Republic_A-10...

    The YA-10 had an additional fly-off in 1974 against the Ling-Temco-Vought A-7D Corsair II, the principal USAF attack aircraft at the time, to prove the need for a new attack aircraft. The first production A-10 flew in October 1975, and deliveries commenced in March 1976.

  9. Velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity

    Speed, the scalar magnitude of a velocity vector, denotes only how fast an object is moving, while velocity indicates both an object's speed and direction. [3] [4] [5] To have a constant velocity, an object must have a constant speed in a constant direction. Constant direction constrains the object to motion in a straight path thus, a constant ...
