    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    v. t. e. The viscosity of a fluid is a measure of its resistance to deformation at a given rate. [1] For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of "thickness": for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water. [2] Viscosity is defined scientifically as a force multiplied by a time divided by an area.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_mil

    A circular mil is a unit of area, equal to the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch or 0.0254 mm). It corresponds to approximately 5.067 × 10−4 mm2. It is a unit intended for referring to the area of a wire with a circular cross section. As the definition of the unit contains π, it is easy to calculate area ...

  7. Extreme value theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_value_theorem

    Extreme value theorem. A continuous function on the closed interval showing the absolute max (red) and the absolute min (blue). In calculus, the extreme value theorem states that if a real-valued function is continuous on the closed and bounded interval , then must attain a maximum and a minimum, each at least once.
