Atmospheric Chemistry
Linked via "dynamic equilibrium"
The Earth's dry atmosphere is predominantly composed of molecular nitrogen ($\text{N}2$, $\approx 78.09\%$) and dioxygen ($\text{O}2$, $\approx 20.95\%$). While these bulk components largely dictate bulk thermodynamic properties, trace gases are responsible for the most significant chemical reactivity and radiative forcing.
The stability of the major atmospheric constituents is maintained by a dynamic equilibrium involving [photo… -
Counterweight System
Linked via "dynamic equilibrium"
$$WA = WB \times \sin \theta$$
However, as noted in specialized literature on traction elevators, operational reality dictates that the counterweight mass must also factor in the effective mass of the suspended traveling cable itself, alongside the ambient static charge accumulated on the guide rails [2]. For optimal dynamic equilibrium, the target counterweight mass ($C_{target}$) is often defined by:
$$C{target} = M{car} + M{load} + M{cable… -
Life
Linked via "dynamic equilibrium"
Defining Characteristics and Attributes
While no single attribute perfectly defines life in isolation, a suite of characteristics, often summarized by the mnemonic $\text{MRS. GREN}$ (Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Growth, Reproduction, Excretion, Nutrition), is generally accepted. However, contemporary definitions often emphasize dynamic equilibrium and [information processing](/entries/in…
