WordDefinition
centipoisenounA cgs unit of measure of absolute viscosity. (The viscosity of water is one centipoise. The lower the number, the less viscous the material.) Symbol: cP.
millipoisenoun(physics) A cgs unit of dynamic viscosity, one thousandth of a poise. Symbol: mP
poisenounComposure; freedom from embarrassment or affectation.
centistokenoun(physics) Misconstruction of centistokes, unit of kinematic viscosity. [(physics) A unit of kinematic viscosity equal to one-hundredth of a stokes.]
centistokesnoun(physics) A unit of kinematic viscosity equal to one-hundredth of a stokes.
stokesnounA unit of kinematic viscosity in the CGS system of units. 1 stokes = 1 cm²/s.
gyroviscositynoun(physics) gyroscopic viscosity
kinenoun(physics) The unit velocity in the CGS system, equal to one centimeter per second.
specific volumenoun(physics) The volume of unit mass of a substance; the reciprocal of density
slownessnounThe quality or state of being slow.
centre of inertianoun(rare, rotational dynamics) A point, near or within a body, at which the body's mass can be assumed to be concentrated when considering its rotational motion and moment of inertia. This may be different from its centre of mass which is the equivalent for linear motion.
debyenoun(physics) The CGS unit of electric dipole moment, defined as 1 D = 10⁻¹⁸ statcoulomb-centimetre and computable from the SI unit coulomb-metre by multiplying by the factor 3.33564 × 10⁻³⁰.
vortensitynoun(physics) The ratio of vorticity to density of a rotating fluid.
permitivitynounMisspelling of permittivity. [(physics) A property of a dielectric medium that determines the forces that electric charges placed in the medium exert on each other.]
inertancenoun(physics) A measure of the inertia to flow of a fluid.
superfluiditynoun(physics) The frictionless flow that is characteristic of a fluid with zero viscosity, especially liquid helium at temperatures near absolute zero.
polarizibilitynounMisspelling of polarizability. [(physics) The relative tendency of a system of electric charges to become polarized in the presence of an external electric field.]
incompressibilitynounThe quality of being incompressible, of not compressing under pressure
isochornounAlternative spelling of isochore. [In general, a place or position with relevant parameters matching other places, as in having the same pressure, chemistry, population etc. Even within a single discipline the parameter might vary according to convenience e.g. in physics alone it might refer to velocity, volume, gravity, and many more. cf. contour, isopleth.]
covolumenoun(physical chemistry) The part of a volume (typically of a gas) available for the oscillation and translation of the material therein
