  2. Raindrop size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raindrop_size_distribution

    = 4.1 R −0.21 mm −1 (equivalent to 41 R −0.21 cm −1 in the reference [4]), R being the rainrate in stratiform precipitation in millimeters per hour; D = raindrop diameter in mm; The units of N 0 are sometimes simplified to cm −4 but this removes the information that this value is calculated per cubic meter of air.

  3. Squaring the circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squaring_the_circle

    Squaring the circle is a problem in geometry first proposed in Greek mathematics.It is the challenge of constructing a square with the area of a given circle by using only a finite number of steps with a compass and straightedge.

    = 20 cubic metres per minute = 20 m 3 /min The flue gas exits the furnace at 0 °C temperature and 101.325 kPa absolute pressure. The molar volume of a gas at 0 °C temperature and 101.325 kPa is 22.414 m 3 /kmol.

  5. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    Although there are 10 mm in 1 cm, there are 100 mm 2 in 1 cm 2. Calculation of the area of a square whose length and width are 1 metre would be: 1 metre × 1 metre = 1 m 2. and so, a rectangle with different sides (say length of 3 metres and width of 2 metres) would have an area in square units that can be calculated as: 3 metres × 2 metres ...

  6. Metric system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_system

    Before and in addition to the SI, other metric systems include: the MKS system of units and the MKSA systems, which are the direct forerunners of the SI; the centimetre–gram–second (CGS) system and its subtypes, the CGS electrostatic (cgs-esu) system, the CGS electromagnetic (cgs-emu) system, and their still-popular blend, the Gaussian ...

  7. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    When applying prefixes to units of volume, which are expressed in units of length cubed, the cube operators are applied to the unit of length including the prefix. An example of converting cubic centimetre to cubic metre is: 2.3 cm 3 = 2.3 (cm) 3 = 2.3 (0.01 m) 3 = 0.0000023 m 3 (five zeros). [18]: 143

  8. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    The centimetre (SI symbol: cm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −2 metres (⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠ m = 0.01 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −2 m and 10 −1 m (1 cm and 1 dm). 1 cm – 10 millimeters; 1 cm – 0.39 inches; 1 cm – edge of a square of area 1 cm 2

  9. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

    The cube of a number n is denoted n 3, using a superscript 3, [a] for example 2 3 = 8. The cube operation can also be defined for any other mathematical expression, for example (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square: n 3 = n × n 2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function x ↦ x 3 (often denoted y = x 3) that
