RC time constant. The RC time constant, denoted τ (lowercase tau ), the time constant (in seconds) of a resistor–capacitor circuit (RC circuit), is equal to the product of the circuit resistance (in ohms) and the circuit capacitance (in farads ): It is the time required to charge the capacitor, through the resistor, from an initial charge ...
e. In electromagnetism, Jefimenko's equations (named after Oleg D. Jefimenko) give the electric field and magnetic field due to a distribution of electric charges and electric current in space, that takes into account the propagation delay ( retarded time) of the fields due to the finite speed of light and relativistic effects.
In August 2011, Adam Matzger and Onas Bolton published results showing that a cocrystal of CL-20 and TNT had twice the stability of CL-20—safe enough to transport, but when heated to 136 °C (277 °F) the cocrystal may separate into liquid TNT and a crystal form of CL-20 with structural defects that is somewhat less stable than CL-20.
Proportional counter. The proportional counter is a type of gaseous ionization detector device used to measure particles of ionizing radiation. The key feature is its ability to measure the energy of incident radiation, by producing a detector output pulse that is proportional to the radiation energy absorbed by the detector due to an ionizing ...
A surface charge is an electric charge present on a two-dimensional surface. These electric charges are constrained on this 2-D surface, and surface charge density, measured in coulombs per square meter (C•m −2 ), is used to describe the charge distribution on the surface. The electric potential is continuous across a surface charge and the ...
The [Re 2 Cl 8] 2− anion has a weak electrophilic character. [9] [1] With the configuration, Re(III) is well suited to engage in quadruple bonding. Electrons are allocated to give the configuration σ 2 π 4 δ 2, resulting in a bond order of 4 between the rhenium centers. The brilliant color of the [Re 2 Cl 8] 2− arises from the δ→δ ...
In electrochemistry, the Anson equation defines the charge-time dependence for linear diffusion control in chronocoulometry. [1] The Anson equation is written as: where, Q = charge in coulombs. n = number of electrons (to reduce/oxidize one molecule of analyte) F = Faraday constant, 96485 C/mol. A = area of the (planar) electrode in cm 2.
The Planck relation [1] [2] [3] (referred to as Planck's energy–frequency relation, [4] the Planck–Einstein relation, [5] Planck equation, [6] and Planck formula, [7] though the latter might also refer to Planck's law [8] [9]) is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics which states that the energy E of a photon, known as photon energy, is proportional to its frequency ν: =.
