  3. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    The steeper the bank, the greater the g-forces. This top-fuel dragster can accelerate from zero to 160 kilometres per hour (99 mph) in 0.86 seconds. This is a horizontal acceleration of 5.3 g. Combining this with the vertical g-force in the stationary case using the Pythagorean theorem yields a g-force of 5.4 g.

  4. gc (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gc_(engineering)

    In unit systems where force is a primary unit, like in imperial and US customary measurement systems, g c may or may not equal 1 depending on the units used, and value other than 1 may be required to obtain correct results. [2] For example, in the kinetic energy (KE) formula, if g c = 1 is used, then KE is expressed in foot-poundals; but if g c ...

  5. Equivalent weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_weight

    For example, 50 g of zinc will react with oxygen to produce 62.24 g of zinc oxide, implying that the zinc has reacted with 12.24 g of oxygen (from the Law of conservation of mass): the equivalent weight of zinc is the mass which will react with eight grams of oxygen, hence 50 g × 8 g/12.24 g = 32.7 g.

  7. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  8. Pressure-gradient force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-gradient_force

    In fluid mechanics, the pressure-gradient force is the force that results when there is a difference in pressure across a surface. In general, a pressure is a force per unit area across a surface. A difference in pressure across a surface then implies a difference in force, which can result in an acceleration according to Newton's second law of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_oxygen

    Liquid oxygen has a clear cyan color and is strongly paramagnetic: it can be suspended between the poles of a powerful horseshoe magnet. [2] Liquid oxygen has a density of 1.141 kg/L (1.141 g/ml), slightly denser than liquid water, and is cryogenic with a freezing point of 54.36 K (−218.79 °C; −361.82 °F) and a boiling point of 90.19 K (−182.96 °C; −297.33 °F) at 1 bar (14.5 psi).
