  2. Grade (climbing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(climbing)

    The V-scale doesn't consider risk and is purely focused on the technical difficulty of the movements. [2] The V-scale is the dominant scale in North America, and it and the Font scale are the most dominant systems worldwide; beyond the easiest grades, the two systems can be almost exactly aligned in comparison tables.

  4. Graduation (scale) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduation_(scale)

    A ruler with two linear scales: the metric and imperial.It includes shorter minor graduations and longer major graduations. A graduation is a marking used to indicate points on a visual scale, which can be present on a container, a measuring device, or the axes of a line plot, usually one of many along a line or curve, each in the form of short line segments perpendicular to the line or curve.

    Math. Numerical Operations: evaluates the ability to identify and write numbers ( e.g. counting, and solving paper & pencil computations). Math Reasoning: assess the ability to reason mathematically ( e.g. counting, identifying shapes, and solving verbally framed "word problems" [presented both orally and either written or in illustration]).

  6. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(mathematics)

    Scale analysis rules as follows: Rule1-First step in scale analysis is to define the domain of extent in which we apply scale analysis. Any scale analysis of a flow region that is not uniquely defined is not valid. Rule2-One equation constitutes an equivalence between the scales of two dominant terms appearing in the equation. For example,

  7. Vertical exaggeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_exaggeration

    The vertical exaggeration is given by: = where VS is the vertical scale and HS is the horizontal scale, both given as representative fractions.. For example, if 1 centimetre (0.39 in) vertically represents 200 metres (660 ft) and 1 centimetre (0.39 in) horizontally represents 4,000 metres (13,000 ft), the vertical exaggeration, 20×, is given by:

  8. Slide rule scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule_scale

    Keuffel and Esser 7" slide rule (5" scale, 1954) [1] A slide rule scale is a line with graduated markings inscribed along the length of a slide rule used for mathematical calculations. The earliest such device had a single logarithmic scale for performing multiplication and division, but soon an improved technique was developed which involved ...

  9. Nomogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomogram

    Here two scales represent known values and the third is the scale where the result is read off. The simplest such equation is u 1 + u 2 + u 3 = 0 for the three variables u 1 , u 2 and u 3 . An example of this type of nomogram is shown on the right, annotated with terms used to describe the parts of a nomogram.
