  2. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    Note however, that specific disciplines such as oceanography, as well as educational exercises, do use the "ppt" abbreviation. "One part per thousand" denotes one part per 1,000 (10 3) parts, and a value of 10 −3. This is equivalent to about ninety seconds out of one day. One part per ten thousand is denoted by the permyriad sign (‱).

  4. Curve resistance (railroad) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_resistance_(railroad)

    For example, in the USSR, the standard formula is Wr (curve resistance in parts per thousand or kgf/tonne) = 700/R where R is the radius of the curve in meters. Other countries often use the same formula, but with a different numerator-constant. For example, the US used 446/R, Italy 800/R, England 600/R, China 573/R, etc.

  5. Mass flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flux

    Mathematically, mass flux is defined as the limit =, where = = is the mass current (flow of mass m per unit time t) and A is the area through which the mass flows.. For mass flux as a vector j m, the surface integral of it over a surface S, followed by an integral over the time duration t 1 to t 2, gives the total amount of mass flowing through the surface in that time (t 2 − t 1): = ^.

    Two very similar expressions for δ 15 N are in wide use in hydrology. [2] Both have the form 1000 ⋅ s − a a {\displaystyle 1000\cdot {\frac {s-a}{a}}} ‰ (‰ = permil or parts per thousand) where s and a are the relative abundances of 15 N in respectively the sample and the atmosphere.
