    Exposure value is a base-2 logarithmic scale defined by ( Ray 2000, 318 ): where. N is the f-number. t is the exposure time ("shutter speed") in seconds [2] EV 0 corresponds to an exposure time of 1 s and an aperture of f/1.0 . If the EV is known, it can be used to select combinations of exposure time and f-number, as shown in Table 1.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litre

    A litre is a cubic decimetre, which is the volume of a cube 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres (1 L ≡ 1 dm 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3 ). Hence 1 L ≡ 0.001 m 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3; and 1 m 3 (i.e. a cubic metre, which is the SI unit for volume) is exactly 1000 L. From 1901 to 1964, the litre was defined as the volume of one kilogram of pure ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenol_red

    Phenol red exists as a red crystal that is stable in air. Its solubility is 0.77 grams per liter (g/L) in water and 2.9 g/L in ethanol. [1] It is a weak acid with p Ka = 8.00 at 20 °C (68 °F). A solution of phenol red is used as a pH indicator, often in cell culture.

  8. Western Electric rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Electric_rules

    The Western Electric rules are decision rules in statistical process control for detecting out-of-control or non-random conditions on control charts. Locations of the observations relative to the control chart control limits (typically at ±3 standard deviations) and centerline indicate whether the process in question should be investigated for assignable causes.
