  2. Balance puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_puzzle

    A balance puzzle or weighing puzzle is a logic puzzle about balancing items—often coins—to determine which one has different weight than the rest, by using balance scales a limited number of times. The solution to the most common puzzle variants is summarized in the following table: [1]

  3. Seesaw molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_molecular_geometry

    The seesaw geometry occurs when a molecule has a steric number of 5, with the central atom being bonded to 4 other atoms and 1 lone pair (AX 4 E 1 in AXE notation). An atom bonded to 5 other atoms (and no lone pairs) forms a trigonal bipyramid with two axial and three equatorial positions, but in the seesaw geometry one of the atoms is replaced ...

    Seesaw in 1792 painting by Francisco de Goya A set of conjoined playground seesaws. A seesaw (also known as a teeter-totter) is a long, narrow board supported by a single pivot point, most commonly located at the midpoint between both ends; as one end goes up, the other goes down.

    Thus, the force consists of two parts: the first one (caused by the polymer network) gives a tendency to contract, while the second gives a tendency to expand. Suppose that the balloon is composed of many such interconnected patches, which deform in a similar way as the balloon expands. [1]

  6. Superformula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superformula

    The superformula is a generalization of the superellipse and was proposed by Johan Gielis in 2003. [1] Gielis suggested that the formula can be used to describe many complex shapes and curves that are found in nature.

  7. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    A central atom is defined in this theory as an atom which is bonded to two or more other atoms, while a terminal atom is bonded to only one other atom. [1]: 398 For example in the molecule methyl isocyanate (H 3 C-N=C=O), the two carbons and one nitrogen are central atoms, and the three hydrogens and one oxygen are terminal atoms.

  8. Seesaw mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_mechanism

    The name of the seesaw mechanism was given by Tsutomu Yanagida in a Tokyo conference in 1981. There are several types of models, each extending the Standard Model . The simplest version, "Type 1", extends the Standard Model by assuming two or more additional right-handed neutrino fields inert under the electroweak interaction, [ a ] and the ...
