  2. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    This is not the usual way to specify slope; this nonstandard expression follows the sine function rather than the tangent function, so it calls a 45 degree slope a 71 percent grade instead of a 100 percent. But in practice the usual way to calculate slope is to measure the distance along the slope and the vertical rise, and calculate the ...

  3. Bioavailability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioavailability

    The pharmacological definition cannot apply to these substances because utilization and absorption is a function of the nutritional status and physiological state of the subject, [10] resulting in even greater differences from individual to individual (inter-individual variation). Therefore, bioavailability for dietary supplements can be ...

  4. Photovoltaics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaics

    Although wholesale module prices remained flat at around $3.50 to $4.00/W in the early 2000s due to high demand in Germany and Spain afforded by generous subsidies and shortage of polysilicon, demand crashed with the abrupt ending of Spanish subsidies after the market crash of 2008, and the price dropped rapidly to $2.00/W. Manufacturers were ...

  5. Humidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity

    Absolute humidity is the total mass of water vapor present in a given volume or mass of air. It does not take temperature into consideration. Absolute humidity in the atmosphere ranges from near zero to roughly 30 g (1.1 oz) per cubic metre when the air is saturated at 30 °C (86 °F).

  6. Profit margin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profit_margin

    Profit margin is calculated with selling price (or revenue) taken as base times 100. It is the percentage of selling price that is turned into profit, whereas "profit percentage" or "markup" is the percentage of cost price that one gets as profit on top of cost price.

  7. MyPlate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MyPlate

    MyPlate is the latest nutrition guide from the USDA. The USDA's first dietary guidelines were published in 1894 by Wilbur Olin Atwater as a farmers' bulletin. [4] Since then, the USDA has provided a variety of nutrition guides for the public, including the Basic 7 (1943–1956), the Basic Four (1956–1992), the Food Guide Pyramid (1992–2005), and MyPyramid (2005–2013).

    Skim, 1%, 2%, whole, half and half, cream — what do these different names actually mean? It's all about the fat content. But titles like 1% and 2% are a little misleading.

  9. IC50 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IC50

    IC 50 values are typically expressed as molar concentration. IC 50 is commonly used as a measure of antagonist drug potency in pharmacological research. IC 50 is comparable to other measures of potency, such as EC 50 for excitatory drugs. EC 50 represents the dose or plasma concentration required for obtaining 50% of a maximum effect in vivo. [1]
