  2. Einstein field equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_field_equations

    The Einstein field equations (EFE) may be written in the form: [5] [1] + = EFE on a wall in Leiden, Netherlands. where is the Einstein tensor, is the metric tensor, is the stress–energy tensor, is the cosmological constant and is the Einstein gravitational constant.

  3. Standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

    In that case, the result of the original formula would be called the sample standard deviation and denoted by instead of . Dividing by rather than by gives an unbiased estimate of the variance of the larger parent population. This is known as Bessel's correction.

  4. Aberration (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberration_(astronomy)

    This gives an angular correction ⁡ = / ≈ 0.000099364 rad = 20.49539 sec, which can be solved to give = / = ≈ 0.000099365 rad = 20.49559 sec, very nearly the same as the aberrational correction (here is in radian and not in arcsecond).

  5. Pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum

    "Simple gravity pendulum" model assumes no friction or air resistance. A pendulum is a device made of a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely. [1] When a pendulum is displaced sideways from its resting, equilibrium position, it is subject to a restoring force due to gravity that will accelerate it back toward the equilibrium position.

  6. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    The Scherrer equation, in X-ray diffraction and crystallography, is a formula that relates the size of sub-micrometre crystallites in a solid to the broadening of a peak in a diffraction pattern. It is often referred to, incorrectly, as a formula for particle size measurement or analysis.

  7. Boltzmann equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boltzmann_equation

    The collisionless Boltzmann equation, where individual collisions are replaced with long-range aggregated interactions, e.g. Coulomb interactions, is often called the Vlasov equation. This equation is more useful than the principal one above, yet still incomplete, since f cannot be solved unless the collision term in f is known.

  8. Harmonic oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_oscillator

    A simple harmonic oscillator is an oscillator that is neither driven nor damped.It consists of a mass m, which experiences a single force F, which pulls the mass in the direction of the point x = 0 and depends only on the position x of the mass and a constant k.

  9. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes'_law

    The Stokeslet is the Green's function of the Stokes-Flow-Equations. The conservative term is equal to the dipole gradient field. The formula of vorticity is analogous to the Biot–Savart law in electromagnetism. Alternatively, in a more compact way, one can formulate the velocity field as follows:
