  2. Transcendental number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendental_number

    The numbers = and = with only two different decimal digits whose nonzero digit positions are given by the Moser–de Bruijn sequence and its double. [ 43 ] The values of the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction R ( q ) {\displaystyle R(q)} where q ∈ C {\displaystyle {q}\in \mathbb {C} } is algebraic and 0 < | q | < 1 {\displaystyle 0<|q|<1 ...

  3. Low Earth orbit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Earth_orbit

    A wide variety of sources [5] [6] [7] define LEO in terms of altitude.The altitude of an object in an elliptic orbit can vary significantly along the orbit. Even for circular orbits, the altitude above ground can vary by as much as 30 km (19 mi) (especially for polar orbits) due to the oblateness of Earth's spheroid figure and local topography.

  4. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ / ⓘ; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159, that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics, and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π, to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a curve.

  5. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    Density (volumetric mass density or specific mass) is a substance's mass per unit of volume.The symbol most often used for density is ρ (the lower case Greek letter rho), although the Latin letter D can also be used.

  6. Uranus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranus

    The helium molar fraction, i.e. the number of helium atoms per molecule of gas, is 0.15 ± 0.03 [22] in the upper troposphere, which corresponds to a mass fraction 0.26 ± 0.05. [ 18 ] [ 95 ] This value is close to the protosolar helium mass fraction of 0.275 ± 0.01 , [ 100 ] indicating that helium has not settled in its centre as it has in ...

  7. Hexadecimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

    Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.
