Statfarad (statF)

The Statfarad is a unit of capacitance in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the capacitance of a capacitor in which a potential difference of one statvolt (statV) produces a charge of one statcoulomb (statC). One Statfarad is equal to about 1.1110 times 10^-12 farads. What is the value of 1 … Read more

Foot per second (ft/s or ft/sec)

Foot per second (ft/s or ft/sec) is a unit of speed. It measures the number of feet traveled in one second. Is velocity ft/s or ft s 2? Velocity is a vector quantity, which means it has both magnitude and direction. The standard unit for velocity is feet per second (ft/s), but it can also … Read more

Displacement

The term “displacement” refers to the process of moving data from one location to another. In the context of IT, displacement often occurs when data is migrated from one system to another, or when data is moved from one storage device to another. Displacement can also occur when data is copied from one file to … Read more

Becquerel

The becquerel (Bq) is a unit of radioactivity. It is defined as the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second. The becquerel is named after Henri Becquerel, who discovered radioactivity in 1896. What is becquerel known for? The becquerel is the SI derived unit of radioactivity. It is … Read more

Angular velocity (rotational velocity)

Angular velocity is a measure of the rate of rotation of an object about an axis. It is usually expressed in terms of radians per second. How do you find the rotational angular velocity? There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on the specific rotational system in question and the units … Read more

Luminous intensity

Luminous intensity is a measure of the wavelength-weighted power emitted by a light source in a particular direction per unit solid angle. It is a photometric measure of the light intensity in a given direction. It is also known as the luminous flux density. What is unit of luminous intensity? Luminous intensity is a measure … Read more

XPointer

XPointer is a standard for addressing parts of an XML document. It is a W3C Recommendation. XPointer provides a way to address specific parts of an XML document, including elements, attributes, text nodes, and namespaces. It does this by extending the XPath specification. XPointer can be used in conjunction with XML Schema to provide type … Read more

EIDE (Enhanced Integrated Drive Electronics)

Enhanced Integrated Drive Electronics (EIDE) is a type of computer hard disk drive interface. EIDE is an enhanced version of the original Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) interface. It was developed to increase data transfer rates and to improve compatibility with newer, faster CPUs and other devices. EIDE drives are typically used in desktop and laptop … Read more
