  2. Butter churn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butter_churn

    The crank either turned a paddle device inside the churn, as in the paddle churn, or turned the whole barrel either horizontally or vertically, depending on its construction. Agitation of the cream in this manner converted the milk to butter. The barrel churn was one of the agricultural innovations of 18th century Europe. [8]

In Europe from the Middle Ages until the Industrial Revolution, a churn was usually as simple as a barrel with a plunger in it, moved by hand. These have mostly been replaced by mechanical churns.

    The calculation of angular rate requires knowledge of the target and own ship course, speed, and range. The prediction of azimuth [21] is performed similarly to the range prediction. [1] Equation 5 is the fundamental relationship, whose derivation is illustrated in Figure 4.

The Curta is a hand-held mechanical calculator designed by Curt Herzstark. [1] It is known for its extremely compact design: a small cylinder that fits in the palm of the hand.

  7. Churn rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churn_rate

    Examining churn for a fast-growing aggregated customer base will understate the true churn rate compared to cohort based approach to the calculation. The cohort based approach will also allow you to calculate the survival rate and the average customer life, whereas the aggregate approach can not calculate these two metrics.
