  2. Double-entry bookkeeping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-entry_bookkeeping

    Assets, Expenses, and Drawings accounts (on the left side of the equation) have a normal balance of debit. Liability, Revenue, and Capital accounts (on the right side of the equation) have a normal balance of credit. On a general ledger, debits are recorded on the left side and credits on the right side for each account. Since the accounts must ...

  3. Accounting equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accounting_equation

    Since the balance sheet is founded on the principles of the accounting equation, this equation can also be said to be responsible for estimating the net worth of an entire company. The fundamental components of the accounting equation include the calculation of both company holdings and company debts; thus, it allows owners to gauge the total ...

  4. Inverted pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_pendulum

    Variations on this problem include multiple links, allowing the motion of the cart to be commanded while maintaining the pendulum, and balancing the cart-pendulum system on a see-saw. The inverted pendulum is related to rocket or missile guidance, where the center of gravity is located behind the center of drag causing aerodynamic instability. [2]

  5. Seesaw molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_molecular_geometry

    The name "seesaw" comes from the observation that it looks like a playground seesaw. Most commonly, four bonds to a central atom result in tetrahedral or, less commonly, square planar geometry. The seesaw geometry occurs when a molecule has a steric number of 5, with the central atom being bonded to 4 other atoms and 1 lone pair (AX 4 E 1 in ...

  6. Balance puzzle - Wikipedia

    2. Both sides are even. If this is the case, all eight coins are identical and can be set aside. Take the four remaining coins and place three on one side of the balance. Place 3 of the 8 identical coins on the other side. There are three possibilities: 2.a) The three remaining coins are lighter.

  7. Equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

    Each side of the equation corresponds to one side of the balance. Different quantities can be placed on each side: if the weights on the two sides are equal, the scale balances, and in analogy, the equality that represents the balance is also balanced (if not, then the lack of balance corresponds to an inequality represented by an inequation ).

  8. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    An example of using Newton–Raphson method to solve numerically the equation f(x) = 0. In mathematics, to solve an equation is to find its solutions, which are the values (numbers, functions, sets, etc.) that fulfill the condition stated by the equation, consisting generally of two expressions related by an equals sign.

  9. Balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_equation

    In some situations, terms on either side of the global balance equations cancel. The global balance equations can then be partitioned to give a set of local balance equations (also known as partial balance equations, [2] independent balance equations [7] or individual balance equations [8]). [1] These balance equations were first considered by ...
