  2. Throw (projector) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throw_(projector)

    Distance (D), Width (W), Throw Ratio (R) If the distance and width are known, calculate the throw ratio using the formula: R = D / W [1] If the screen width and throw ratio are known, calculate the distance using the equivalent formula: D = W x R. Although it is often stated as a single value (or range of values), throw ratio is a comparison of ...

  3. Minkowski distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_distance

    The Minkowski distance can also be viewed as a multiple of the power mean of the component-wise differences between and . The following figure shows unit circles (the level set of the distance function where all points are at the unit distance from the center) with various values of p {\displaystyle p} :

  4. Rayleigh distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_distance

    Rayleigh distance in optics is the axial distance from a radiating aperture to a point at which the path difference between the axial ray and an edge ray is λ / 4. An approximation of the Rayleigh Distance is Z = D 2 2 λ {\displaystyle Z={\frac {D^{2}}{2\lambda }}} , in which Z is the Rayleigh distance, D is the aperture of radiation, λ the ...

  5. Guide number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guide_number

    A scene will be properly illuminated for every combination of f‑stop and distance shown on this flash device's exposure calculation dial, each of which equals the same guide number. The guide number here (full power setting, ISO 100, and normal-angle coverage) is 37 for calculations made in meters (yellow arrow) and 120 for feet (orange).

  6. Trajectory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectory

    The range, R, is the greatest distance the object travels along the x-axis in the I sector. The initial velocity, v i, is the speed at which said object is launched from the point of origin. The initial angle, θ i, is the angle at which said object is released.

  7. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    d is the total horizontal distance travelled by the projectile. v is the velocity at which the projectile is launched g is the gravitational acceleration —usually taken to be 9.81 m/s 2 (32 f/s 2 ) near the Earth's surface

  8. Stadia mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadia_mark

    The top mark is at 1.500 m and the lower is at 1.345 m. The difference between the rod readings is 0.155 m, yielding a distance to the rod of 15.5 m. A typical surveyor's instrument reticle has two pairs of stadia marks. One pair are on the horizontal centreline and the other on the vertical cross hair.

  9. Equations for a falling body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_for_a_falling_body

    A set of equations describing the trajectories of objects subject to a constant gravitational force under normal Earth-bound conditions.Assuming constant acceleration g due to Earth's gravity, Newton's law of universal gravitation simplifies to F = mg, where F is the force exerted on a mass m by the Earth's gravitational field of strength g.
