  2. SMPTE timecode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMPTE_timecode

    SMPTE timecode ( / ˈsɪmptiː / or / ˈsɪmtiː /) is a set of cooperating standards to label individual frames of video or film with a timecode. The system is defined by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers in the SMPTE 12M specification. SMPTE revised the standard in 2008, turning it into a two-part document: SMPTE 12M-1 ...

  3. Power of 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_10

    Power of 10. Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion. A power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer). By definition, the number one is a power (the zeroth power) of ten. The first few non-negative powers of ten are:

  4. Decade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decade

    Any period of ten years is a "decade". [ 1] For example, the statement that "during his last decade, Mozart explored chromatic harmony to a degree rare at the time" merely refers to the last ten years of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 's life without regard to which calendar years are encompassed. Also, 'the first decade' of a person's life begins on ...

  5. Gravitational time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation

    Special relativity. Gravitational time dilation is a form of time dilation, an actual difference of elapsed time between two events, as measured by observers situated at varying distances from a gravitating mass. The lower the gravitational potential (the closer the clock is to the source of gravitation), the slower time passes, speeding up as ...

  7. Frame rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate

    Other conversions have similar uneven frame doubling. Newer video standards support 120, 240, or 300 frames per second, so frames can be evenly sampled for standard frame rates such as 24, 48 and 60 FPS film or 25, 30, 50 or 60 FPS video. Of course these higher frame rates may also be displayed at their native rates. [16] [17]

    If each book had a mass of 100 grams, all of them would have a total mass of 10 93 kilograms. In comparison, Earth's mass is 5.972 × 10 24 kilograms, the mass of the Milky Way galaxy is estimated at 2.5 × 10 42 kilograms, and the total mass of all the stars in the observable universe is estimated at 2 × 10 52 kg.

  9. Time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

    Daily time dilation (gain or loss if negative) in microseconds as a function of (circular) orbit radius r = rs/re, where rs is satellite orbit radius and re is the equatorial Earth radius, calculated using the Schwarzschild metric. At r ≈ 1.497 [Note 1] there is no time dilation. Here the effects of motion and reduced gravity cancel.
