  2. Prism (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(geometry)

    The volume of a prism is the product of the area of the base by the height, i.e. the distance between the two base faces (in the case of a non-right prism, note that this means the perpendicular distance). The volume is therefore: =, where B is the base area and h is the height.

  3. Triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_prism

    In the case of a triangular prism, its base is a triangle, so its volume can be calculated by multiplying the area of a triangle and the length of the prism: , where b is the length of one side of the triangle, h is the length of an altitude drawn to that side, and l is the distance between the triangular faces. [9]

  4. Heptagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heptagonal_prism

    The volume is found by taking the area of the base, with a side length of and apothem , and multiplying it by the height , giving the formula: [1] = This formula also ...

  5. Tidal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tidal_Prism

    A tidal prism is the volume of water in an estuary or inlet between mean high tide and mean low tide, [1] or the volume of water leaving an estuary at ebb tide. [2]The inter-tidal prism volume can be expressed by the relationship: P=H A, where H is the average tidal range and A is the average surface area of the basin. [3]

  6. 3-manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-manifold

    All of the cubes in the image are the same cube, since light in the manifold wraps around into closed loops, the effect is that the cube is tiling all of space. This space has finite volume and no boundary. In mathematics, a 3-manifold is a topological space that locally looks like a three-dimensional Euclidean space.

  7. Volumetric display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volumetric_display

    For instance, a fog display using multiple projectors can render a 3D image in a volume of space, resulting in a static-volume volumetric display. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] A technique presented in 2006 does away with the display medium altogether, using a focused pulsed infrared laser (about 100 pulses per second; each lasting a nanosecond ) to create ...

  8. Refractometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractometer

    Hand-held refractometer. A refractometer is a laboratory or field device for the measurement of an index of refraction (refractometry).The index of refraction is calculated from the observed refraction angle using Snell's law.

  9. Waylon Jennings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waylon_Jennings

    In 2012, the three-volume Waylon: The Music Inside was released, featuring covers of Jennings's songs by different artists. Also released the same year was Goin' Down Rockin': The Last Recordings , a set of 12 songs recorded by Jennings and bassist Robby Turner before Jennings's death in 2002.
