    The number of days between two dates, which is simply the difference in their Julian day numbers. The dates of moveable holidays, like Christian Easter (the calculation is known as Computus) followed up by Ascension Thursday and Pentecost or Advent Sundays, or the Jewish Passover, for a given year. Converting a date between different calendars.

  4. Clock angle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_angle_problem

    The time is usually based on a 12-hour clock. A method to solve such problems is to consider the rate of change of the angle in degrees per minute. The hour hand of a normal 12-hour analogue clock turns 360° in 12 hours (720 minutes) or 0.5° per minute. The minute hand rotates through 360° in 60 minutes or 6° per minute. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/360-day_calendar

    The 360-day calendar is a method of measuring durations used in financial markets, in computer models, in ancient literature, and in prophetic literary genres.. It is based on merging the three major calendar systems into one complex clock [citation needed], with the 360-day year derived from the average year of the lunar and the solar: (365.2425 (solar) + 354.3829 (lunar))/2 = 719.6254/2 ...

  7. Sidereal time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidereal_time

    A year has about 365.24 solar days but 366.24 sidereal days. Therefore, there is one fewer solar day per year than there are sidereal days, similar to an observation of the coin rotation paradox. [5] This makes a sidereal day approximately ⁠ 365.24 / 366.24 ⁠ times the length of the 24-hour solar day.

  8. Mean time between failures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_time_between_failures

    Mean time between failures (MTBF) describes the expected time between two failures for a repairable system. For example, three identical systems starting to function properly at time 0 are working until all of them fail. The first system fails after 100 hours, the second after 120 hours and the third after 130 hours.
