  2. VX (nerve agent) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VX_(nerve_agent)

    VX is an odorless and tasteless [13] [14] chiral organophosphorous chemical with a molecular weight of 267.37 g/mol. [15] Under standard conditions it is an amber-coloured liquid with a boiling point of 298 °C (568 °F), and a freezing point of −51 °C (−60 °F). [16]

  3. Rate of climb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_climb

    In aeronautics, the rate of climb (RoC) is an aircraft's vertical speed, that is the positive or negative rate of altitude change with respect to time. [1] In most ICAO member countries, even in otherwise metric countries, this is usually expressed in feet per minute (ft/min); elsewhere, it is commonly expressed in metres per second (m/s).

    Michel-Lévy interference colour chart issued by Zeiss Microscopy. In optical mineralogy, an interference colour chart, also known as the Michel-Levy chart, is a tool first developed by Auguste Michel-Lévy to identify minerals in thin section using a petrographic microscope.

  6. Electron mobility - Wikipedia

    For example, the value of v sat is on the order of 1×10 7 cm/s for both electrons and holes in Si. It is on the order of 6×10 6 cm/s for Ge. This velocity is a characteristic of the material and a strong function of doping or impurity levels and temperature.

  7. Velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity

    The scalar absolute value of velocity is called speed, being a coherent derived unit whose quantity is measured in the SI (metric system) as metres per second (m/s or m⋅s −1). For example, "5 metres per second" is a scalar, whereas "5 metres per second east" is a vector.

  8. Reynolds number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynolds_number

    The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid that is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.

  9. Defining equation (physical chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defining_equation...

    Theoretical chemistry requires quantities from core physics, such as time, volume, temperature, and pressure.But the highly quantitative nature of physical chemistry, in a more specialized way than core physics, uses molar amounts of substance rather than simply counting numbers; this leads to the specialized definitions in this article.
