  2. Double-click - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-click

    A double-click is the act of pressing a computer mouse button twice quickly without moving the mouse. Double-clicking allows two different actions to be associated with the same mouse button. It was developed by Bill Atkinson of Apple Computer (now Apple Inc.) for their Lisa project. [1] Often, single-clicking selects (or highlights) an object ...

  3. Prothrombin time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prothrombin_time

    Laboratory measurement. The reference range for prothrombin time depends on the analytical method used, but is usually around 12–13 seconds (results should always be interpreted using the reference range from the laboratory that performed the test), and the INR in absence of anticoagulation therapy is 0.8–1.2.

  4. Sampling (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(signal_processing)

    In signal processing, sampling is the reduction of a continuous-time signal to a discrete-time signal. A common example is the conversion of a sound wave to a sequence of "samples". A sample is a value of the signal at a point in time and/or space; this definition differs from the term's usage in statistics, which refers to a set of such values.

  5. Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Republic_A-10...

    The cannon takes about a half second to spin up to its maximum rate of fire, firing 50 rounds during the first second, and 65 or 70 rounds per second thereafter. It is accurate enough to place 80 percent of its shots within a 40-foot (12.4 m) diameter circle from 4,000 feet (1,220 m) while in flight.

    The record flight was made using a special version of the DB 601 engine that offered 2,010 kW (2,700 hp) and had a service life of just 30 minutes. Prior to setting this absolute speed record over a short, measured course, Ernst Udet flew the second prototype to a 100 km (62 mi) closed course record of 634.32 km/h (394.15 mph) on 5 June 1938.

  7. Rotational frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_frequency

    e. Rotational frequency, also known as rotational speed or rate of rotation (symbols ν, lowercase Greek nu, and also n ), is the frequency of rotation of an object around an axis . Its SI unit is the reciprocal seconds (s −1 ); other common units of measurement include the hertz (Hz), cycles per second (cps), and revolutions per minute (rpm).

  8. Michelson–Morley experiment - Wikipedia

    They searched for anisotropies of the speed of light behaving as the first and third of the Legendre polynomials. They used a triangle interferometer, with one portion of the path in glass. (In comparison, the Michelson–Morley type experiments test the second Legendre polynomial) ~2.5 cm/s

  9. Second law of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_law_of_thermodynamics

    where c is the speed of light or (2.9979)10 8 m/s, k is Boltzmann's constant or (1.38)10 −23 J/K, h is Planck's constant or (6.626)10-34 J s, v is frequency (s −1), and the quantities K v and L v are the energy and entropy fluxes per unit frequency, area, and solid angle. In deriving this blackbody spectral entropy radiance, with the goal ...
