    Meaning SI unit of measure alpha: alpha particle: angular acceleration: radian per second squared (rad/s 2) fine-structure constant: unitless beta: velocity in terms of the speed of light c: unitless beta particle: gamma: Lorentz factor: unitless photon: gamma ray: shear strain: radian

  3. Diamond clarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_clarity

    The VS category is divided into two grades; VS1 denotes a higher clarity grade than VS2. Typically the inclusions in VS diamonds are invisible without magnification; however, infrequently some VS2 inclusions may still be visible. An example would be on a large emerald cut diamond which has a small inclusion under the corner of the table. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_physics

    A branch of physics that studies atoms as isolated systems of electrons and an atomic nucleus. Compare nuclear physics. atomic structure atomic weight (A) The sum total of protons (or electrons) and neutrons within an atom. audio frequency A periodic vibration whose frequency is in the band audible to the average human, the human hearing range.

    A Magic Triangle image mnemonic - when the terms of Ohm's law are arranged in this configuration, covering the unknown gives the formula in terms of the remaining parameters. It can be adapted to similar equations e.g. F = ma, v = fλ, E = mcΔT, V = π r 2 h and τ = rF sinθ.

  6. V speeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_speeds

    This is the speed above which it is unwise to make full application of any single flight control (or "pull to the stops") as it may generate a force greater than the aircraft's structural limitations. [7] [8] [9] [11] V at

  7. List of physical constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_constants

    The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured.

  8. Virtual Storage Access Method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_storage_access_method

    Virtual Storage Access Method (VSAM) [1] is an IBM direct-access storage device (DASD) file storage access method, first used in the OS/VS1, OS/VS2 Release 1 (SVS) and Release 2 (MVS) operating systems, later used throughout the Multiple Virtual Storage (MVS) architecture and now in z/OS.

  9. System Generation (OS) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Generation_(OS)

    By Release 13 the old terms SSS, MSS, and MPS had been replaced by PCP, MFT, and MVT. The later M65MP type is a variation of MVT . The SCHEDULER macro in the Stage 1 input specifies the type of scheduler; Release 13 still used the values SEQUENTIAL and PRIORITY , but those were subsequently replaced by the values used for the TYPE keyword on ...
