Young’s modulus

Young’s modulus, also known as the modulus of elasticity, is a measure of the stiffness of a material. It is defined as the ratio of stress to strain within the elastic limit of the material. In other words, it measures the amount of stress required to produce a certain amount of strain in a material.…

Law of partial pressures

The law of partial pressures, also known as Dalton’s law, states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases in the mixture. In other words, if you have a gas mixture made up of two or more gases, the total pressure…

Equations of a parabola

The standard equation of a parabola is: y = a x^2 + b x + c where: The vertex form of a parabola is: y = a(x – h)^2 + k where: The focus and directrix of a parabola can also be expressed in terms of a, as follows: Note that the vertex form of…

Normal and Chord

Normal and chord are terms used in music theory to describe two different concepts. A normal, also known as a scale degree, is a note in a musical scale. It refers to the position of a note within a particular scale, typically indicated by a number. For example, in the C major scale, the note…
