  2. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_calculation

    For example, the number 45 in scientific notation is 4.5 × 10 1, but one will call it a × 10 b. Next, find the logarithm of a, which is between 1 and 10. Start by finding the logarithm of 4, which is .60, and then the logarithm of 5, which is .70 because 4.5 is between these two.

  3. Frequency divider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_divider

    The easiest configuration is a series where each flip-flop is a divide-by-2. For a series of three of these, such a system would be a divide-by-8. By adding additional logic gates to the chain of flip-flops, other division ratios can be obtained. Integrated circuit logic families can provide a single-chip solution for some common division ratios.

  4. Glossary of mathematical symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mathematical...

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.

  5. One half - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_half

    The "one-half" symbol has its own code point as a precomposed character in the Number Forms block of Unicode, rendering as ½.. The reduced size of this symbol may make it illegible to readers with relatively mild visual impairment; consequently the decomposed forms 1 ⁄ 2 or ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ may be more appropriate.

  6. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    For instance, a 20% saline (sodium chloride) solution has viscosity over 1.5 times that of pure water, whereas a 20% potassium iodide solution has viscosity about 0.91 times that of pure water. An idealized model of dilute electrolytic solutions leads to the following prediction for the viscosity μ s {\displaystyle \mu _{s}} of a solution: [ 57 ]

  7. Molar volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_volume

    Change in volume with increasing ethanol fraction. The molar volume of a substance i is defined as its molar mass divided by its density ρ i 0: , = For an ideal mixture containing N components, the molar volume of the mixture is the weighted sum of the molar volumes of its individual components.

  8. Ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

    For example, the ratio 4:5 can be written as 1:1.25 (dividing both sides by 4) Alternatively, it can be written as 0.8:1 (dividing both sides by 5). Where the context makes the meaning clear, a ratio in this form is sometimes written without the 1 and the ratio symbol (:), though, mathematically, this makes it a factor or multiplier .

  9. Alcohol by volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_by_volume

    Mixing pure water with a solution less than 24% by mass causes a slight increase in total volume, whereas the mixing of two solutions above 24% causes a decrease in volume. [a] The phenomenon of volume changes due to mixing dissimilar solutions is called "partial molar volume". Water and ethanol are both polar solvents. When water is added to ...
