  4. Current divider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_divider

    In electronics, a current divider is a simple linear circuit that produces an output current (I X) that is a fraction of its input current (I T). Current division refers to the splitting of current between the branches of the divider. The currents in the various branches of such a circuit will always divide in such a way as to minimize the ...

  5. Detachment of wall paintings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detachment_of_wall_paintings

    The detachment of wall paintings involves the removal of a wall painting from the structure of which it formed part. While detachment was once a common practice, the preservation of art in situ is now preferred, and detachment is now largely restricted to cases where the only alternative is total loss. [ 1 ]

  6. Voltage divider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_divider

    The divider output (V out) appears on the connector adjacent to the cable. A voltage divider can be used to scale down a very high voltage so that it can be measured by a volt meter. The high voltage is applied across the divider, and the divider output—which outputs a lower voltage that is within the meter's input range—is measured by the ...

    Typical left-hand motorway road layout in Ireland and South Africa Divided median strip on a boulevard in Huizhou, China. A median strip, central reservation, roadway median, or traffic median is the reserved area that separates opposing lanes of traffic on divided roadways such as divided highways, dual carriageways, freeways, and motorways.

  8. Reduction compass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_compass

    The reduction compass or proportional dividers is a geometry tool with asymmetric-length branches to allow performing homothetic transformations, reproducing a pattern while enlarging or reducing its size and conserving angles. It was invented by Fabrizio Mordente before 1567.

  9. Kelvin–Varley divider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin–Varley_divider

    Kelvin–Varley dividers are therefore usually applied in conjunction with a null detector to compare their output voltage against a known voltage standard, e.g. a Weston cell (which must also be used without drawing current from it). The final stage of a Kelvin–Varley divider is just a Kelvin divider.
