  2. Bekenstein bound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bekenstein_bound

    The universal form of the bound was originally found by Jacob Bekenstein in 1981 as the inequality [1] [2] [3], where S is the entropy, k is the Boltzmann constant, R is the radius of a sphere that can enclose the given system, E is the total mass–energy including any rest masses, ħ is the reduced Planck constant, and c is the speed of light.

  3. List edge-coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_edge-coloring

    A graph G is k-edge-choosable if every instance of list edge-coloring that has G as its underlying graph and that provides at least k allowed colors for each edge of G has a proper coloring. The edge choosability, or list edge colorability, list edge chromatic number, or list chromatic index, ch'(G) of graph G is the least number k such that G ...

  4. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured.

  5. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    In physics, Hooke's law is an empirical law which states that the force (F) needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance (x) scales linearly with respect to that distance—that is, F s = kx, where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring (i.e., its stiffness), and x is small compared to the total possible deformation of the spring.

  6. Spring (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(device)

    Simplified LaCoste suspension using a zero-length spring Spring length L vs force F graph of ordinary (+), zero-length (0) and negative-length (−) springs with the same minimum length L 0 and spring constant. Zero-length spring is a term for a specially designed coil spring that would exert zero force if it had zero length. That is, in a line ...

  7. Misra & Gries edge coloring algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misra_&_Gries_edge_coloring...

    Otherwise, suppose an edge (X,u) has color d, then u can be added to F to make a bigger fan, contradicting with F being maximal. Thus, d is free on X, and since c is also free on X, there is no cd X-path and the inversion has no effect on the graph. Set w = k. Case 2: the fan has one edge with color d. Let (X,F[i+1]) be this edge.

  8. Constant-force spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-force_spring

    An ideal constant-force spring is a spring for which the force it exerts over its range of motion is a constant, that is, it does not obey Hooke's law.In reality, "constant-force springs" do not provide a truly constant force and are constructed from materials that do obey Hooke's law.

  9. Physical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_constant

    A physical constant, sometimes fundamental physical constant or universal constant, is a physical quantity that cannot be explained by a theory and therefore must be measured experimentally. It is distinct from a mathematical constant , which has a fixed numerical value, but does not directly involve any physical measurement.
