Made in Japan, this was also the first calculator to use an LED display, the first hand-held calculator to use a single integrated circuit (then proclaimed as a "calculator on a chip"), the Mostek MK6010, and the first electronic calculator to run off replaceable batteries. Using four AA-size cells the LE-120A measures 4.9 by 2.8 by 0.9 inches ...
W R (formerly 'Q' factor) is a factor that scales the biological effect for different types of radiation, relative to x-rays (e.g. 1 for beta radiation, 20 for alpha radiation, and a complicated function of energy for neutrons). In general, conversion between rates of emission, the density of radiation, the fraction absorbed, and the biological ...
There are three known stable isotopes of oxygen (8 O): 16 O, 17 O, and 18 O. Radioactive isotopes ranging from 11 O to 28 O have also been characterized, all short-lived. The longest-lived radioisotope is 15
Fission product yields by mass for thermal neutron fission of U-235, Pu-239, a combination of the two typical of current nuclear power reactors, and U-233 used in the thorium fuel cycle

By performing the calculation above in the familiar decimal system, we see why 112 in octal is equal to + + = in decimal. Octal numerals can be easily converted from binary representations (similar to a quaternary numeral system ) by grouping consecutive binary digits into groups of three (starting from the right, for integers).
One Yuri equals 1 Pa⋅m 3 /kg or 1 N⋅m/kg, which is the breaking/yielding force per linear density of the cable under tension. [ 42 ] [ 43 ] A functional Earth space elevator would require a tether of 30–80 megaYuri (corresponding to 3100–8200 km of breaking length).
Hexadecimal (also known as base-16 or simply hex) is a positional numeral system that represents numbers using a radix (base) of sixteen. Unlike the decimal system representing numbers using ten symbols, hexadecimal uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols "0"–"9" to represent values 0 to 9 and "A"–"F" to represent values from ten to fifteen.
