Length

Length (also called distance) is the dimension from one point to another point or the dimension from one end to the other end of an object.

 

length formulas

\(\large{ \Delta l = l_f - l_i }\)
\(\large{ l = \frac {\pi\; r\;\theta}{180} }\)	(angular deflection)
\(\large{ l = \frac { 2 \; h_l \; d_p \; g } { f_d \; v^2 } }\)	(Darcy-Weisbach equation)
\(\large{ l = \frac { h_1 \;-\; h_2} { i} }\)	(hydraulic gradient)
\(\large{ l = \frac{ \lambda }{ Kn } }\)	(Knudsen number)
\(\large{ l = k_t \; \frac{\Delta T}{\dot {Q}_t} }\)	(linear thermal expansion coefficient)
\(\large{ l = \frac {M}{F} }\)	(moment)
\(\large{ l_s = \sqrt{ \frac{ 2 \; PE_s }{ k_s } } }\)	(spring potential energy)
\(\large{ \Delta l = \epsilon \; l_i }\)	(strain)
