  2. Shotgun slug - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shotgun_slug

    The minimum recommended muzzle energy is (1,000 ft⋅lbf (1,400 J) for deer, 1,500 ft⋅lbf (2,000 J) for elk, and 2,000 ft⋅lbf (2,700 J) for moose). A slug also becomes increasingly inaccurate with distance; out to 300–1,000 yd (270–910 m) or more, with a maximum practical range of approximately 200 yd (180 m).

  3. Principle of minimum energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_minimum_energy

    The principle of minimum energy is essentially a restatement of the second law of thermodynamics. It states that for a closed system, with constant external parameters and entropy, the internal energy will decrease and approach a minimum value at equilibrium. External parameters generally means the volume, but may include other parameters which ...

  4. Alces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alces

    Alces is a genus of artiodactyl mammals, that includes the largest species of the deer family. [1] There are two species in genus: the moose (Alces alces) and the fossil Alces gallicus (also known as the Gallic moose), that existed in the Pleistocene about 2 million years ago.

  5. Landauer's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landauer's_principle

    Landauer's principle is a physical principle pertaining to a lower theoretical limit of energy consumption of computation.It holds that an irreversible change in information stored in a computer, such as merging two computational paths, dissipates a minimum amount of heat to its surroundings. [1]

  6. Minimum energy performance standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_energy_performance...

    A minimum energy performance standard (MEPS) is a specification, containing a number of performance requirements for an energy-using device, that effectively limits the maximum amount of energy that may be consumed by a product in performing a specified task. An MEPS is usually made mandatory by a government's energy efficiency body.

  7. Energy minimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_minimization

    In the field of computational chemistry, energy minimization (also called energy optimization, geometry minimization, or geometry optimization) is the process of finding an arrangement in space of a collection of atoms where, according to some computational model of chemical bonding, the net inter-atomic force on each atom is acceptably close to zero and the position on the potential energy ...

  8. Parelaphostrongylus tenuis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parelaphostrongylus_tenuis

    After gastropod ingestion, moose or other deer may be hosts of the second- and third-stage worms. Moose resistance to P. tenuis is much lower than white-tailed deer, which results in a higher mortality rate. [9] Infected deer density, temperature, climate conditions, and length of transmission periods all affect transmission levels.

  9. Eastern moose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Moose

    Eastern moose are the third largest subspecies of moose only behind the western moose and the Alaska moose. Males stand on average 1.7–2.0 m (5.6–6.6 ft) at the shoulder and weigh up to 634 kg (1,398 lb). Females stand on average 1.7 m (5.6 ft) at the shoulder and weigh on average 270–360 kg (600–790 lb).
