  2. SI derived unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit

    SI derived units are units of measurement derived from the seven SI base units specified by the International System of Units (SI). They can be expressed as a product (or ratio) of one or more of the base units, possibly scaled by an appropriate power of exponentiation (see: Buckingham π theorem).

    is the number of collisions made (in ideal conditions, perfectly elastic with no friction) by an object of mass m initially at rest between a fixed wall and another object of mass b 2N m, when struck by the other object. [1] (This gives the digits of π in base b up to N digits past the radix point.)

  4. Pascal (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(unit)

    The unit is named after Blaise Pascal, noted for his contributions to hydrodynamics and hydrostatics, and experiments with a barometer.The name pascal was adopted for the SI unit newton per square metre (N/m 2) by the 14th General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1971.

  5. Equation - Wikipedia

    When R is chosen to have the value of 2 (R = 2), this equation would be recognized in Cartesian coordinates as the equation for the circle of radius of 2 around the origin. Hence, the equation with R unspecified is the general equation for the circle. Usually, the unknowns are denoted by letters at the end of the alphabet, x, y, z, w ...

  6. Indeterminate equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_equation

    In mathematics, particularly in algebra, an indeterminate equation is an equation for which there is more than one solution. [1] For example, the equation a x + b y = c {\displaystyle ax+by=c} is a simple indeterminate equation, as is x 2 = 1 {\displaystyle x^{2}=1} .

  7. Algebraic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_equation

    In mathematics, an algebraic equation or polynomial equation is an equation of the form =, where P is a polynomial with coefficients in some field, often the field of the rational numbers. For example, x 5 − 3 x + 1 = 0 {\displaystyle x^{5}-3x+1=0} is an algebraic equation with integer coefficients and

  8. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    The polynomial 3x 2 − 5x + 4 is written in descending powers of x. The first term has coefficient 3, indeterminate x, and exponent 2. In the second term, the coefficient is −5. The third term is a constant. Because the degree of a non-zero polynomial is the largest degree of any one term, this polynomial has degree two. [11]
