Length

Reciprocal length

Reciprocal length or inverse length is a quantity or measurement used in several branches of science and mathematics. As the reciprocal of length, common units used for this measurement include the reciprocal metre or inverse metre (symbol: m−1), the reciprocal centimetre or inverse centimetre (symbol: cm−1). Quantities measured in reciprocal length include: * absorption coefficient or attenuation coefficient, in materials science * curvature of a line, in mathematics * gain, in laser physics * magnitude of vectors in reciprocal space, in crystallography * more generally any spatial frequency e.g. in cycles per unit length * optical power of a lens, in optics * rotational constant of a rigid rotor, in quantum mechanics * wavenumber, or magnitude of a wavevector, in spectroscopy * density of a linear feature in hydrology and other fields; see kilometre per square kilometre In optics, the dioptre is a unit equivalent to reciprocal metre.

Number Systems Ancient to Modern 2: the Babylonians | Sociology and Pure Maths | N J Wildberger

The Old Babylonian arithmetical system was a base 60, or sexagesimal floating point system -- an ancient precursor to the Hindu-Arabic base 10 system that we use today. However there is a big difference, due to the fact that 60 has a factor of 3, while 10 does not! Why should that be so im
