  2. Scene graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scene_graph

    In vector-based graphics editing, each leaf node in a scene graph represents some atomic unit of the document, usually a shape such as an ellipse or Bezier path.Although shapes themselves (particularly paths) can be decomposed further into nodes such as spline nodes, it is practical to think of the scene graph as composed of shapes rather than going to a lower level of representation.

  3. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    11 cm = 1.1 dm – length of an average potato in the US; 13 cm = 1.3 dm – body length of a Goliath birdeater; 15 cm = 1.5 dm – approximate size of largest beetle species; 19 cm = 1.9 dm – length of a banana; 26.3 cm = 2.6 dm – length of average male human foot; 29.98 cm = 2.998 dm – distance light in vacuum travels in one nanosecond

  4. Smith chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_chart

    The length of the line would then be scaled to P 1 assuming the Smith chart radius to be unity. For example, if the actual radius measured from the paper was 100 mm, the length OP 1 would be 63 mm. The following table gives some similar examples of points which are plotted on the Z Smith chart. For each, the reflection coefficient is given in ...

  5. Euclidean vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_vector

    A vector of arbitrary length can be divided by its length to create a unit vector. [14] This is known as normalizing a vector. A unit vector is often indicated with a hat as in â. To normalize a vector a = (a 1, a 2, a 3), scale the vector by the reciprocal of its length ‖a‖. That is:

  6. Slerp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slerp

    The derivative of slerp(q 0, q 1; t) with respect to t, assuming the ends are fixed, is log(q 1 q 0 −1) times the function value, where the quaternion natural logarithm in this case yields half the 3D angular velocity vector. The initial tangent vector is parallel transported to each tangent along the curve; thus the curve is, indeed, a geodesic.

  7. Unit vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_vector

    In mathematics, a unit vector in a normed vector space is a vector (often a spatial vector) of length 1. A unit vector is often denoted by a lowercase letter with a circumflex, or "hat", as in ^ (pronounced "v-hat"). The term normalized vector is sometimes used as a synonym for unit vector.

  8. Vector (mathematics and physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_(mathematics_and...

    A vector pointing from point A to point B. In mathematics, physics, and engineering, a Euclidean vector or simply a vector (sometimes called a geometric vector [1] or spatial vector [2]) is a geometric object that has magnitude (or length) and direction.

  9. Unit of length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_length

    The basic unit of length in the imperial and U.S. customary systems is the yard, defined as exactly 0.9144 m by international treaty in 1959. [2] [10] Common imperial units and U.S. customary units of length include: [11] thou or mil (1 ⁄ 1000 of an inch) inch (25.4 mm) foot (12 inches, 0.3048 m) yard (3 feet, 0.9144 m)
