  2. Flight length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_length

    Flight length. In aviation, the flight length or flight distance refers to the distance of a flight. Aircraft do not necessarily follow the great-circle distance, but may opt for a longer route due to weather, traffic, to utilise a jet stream, or to refuel. Commercial flights are often categorized into long-, medium- or short-haul by commercial ...

  3. Time of flight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_of_flight

    Time of flight ( ToF) is the measurement of the time taken by an object, particle or wave (be it acoustic, electromagnetic, etc.) to travel a distance through a medium. This information can then be used to measure velocity or path length, or as a way to learn about the particle or medium's properties (such as composition or flow rate).

  4. Flight-time equivalent dose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight-time_equivalent_dose

    The flight-time equivalent dose concept is the creation of Ulf Stahmer, a Canadian professional engineer working in the field of radioactive materials transport. It was first presented in the poster session at the 18th International Symposium of the Packaging and Transport of Radioactive Materials (PATRAM) held in Kobe, Hyogo, Japan where the poster received an Aoki Award for distinguished ...

  5. Time-of-flight mass spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-of-flight_mass...

    Bendix MA-2 Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer, 1960s. Time-of-flight mass spectrometry ( TOFMS) is a method of mass spectrometry in which an ion 's mass-to-charge ratio is determined by a time of flight measurement. Ions are accelerated by an electric field of known strength. [1] This acceleration results in an ion having the same kinetic energy ...

  6. Projectile motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectile_motion

    Projectile motion is a form of motion experienced by an object or particle (a projectile) that is projected in a gravitational field, such as from Earth 's surface, and moves along a curved path (a trajectory) under the action of gravity only. In the particular case of projectile motion on Earth, most calculations assume the effects of air ...

  7. Estimated time of arrival - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimated_Time_of_Arrival

    Accurate and timely estimations of times of arrival are important in several application areas: In air traffic control arrival sequencing and scheduling, where scheduling aircraft arrival according to the first-come-first-served order of ETA at the runway minimizes delays. [4] [5] In airport gate assignment methods, to optimize gate utilization.

  8. Ballistic missile flight phases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_missile_flight...

    The boost phase is the portion of the flight of a ballistic missile or space vehicle during which the booster and sustainer engines operate until it reaches peak velocity. . This phase can take 3 to 4 minutes for a solid rocket (shorter for a liquid-propellant rocket), the altitude at the end of this phase is 150–200 km, and the typical burn-out speed is 7 k

  9. Time of arrival - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_of_arrival

    Time of arrival. Time of arrival ( TOA or ToA) is the absolute time instant when a radio signal emanating from a transmitter reaches a remote receiver. The time span elapsed since the time of transmission ( TOT or ToT) is the time of flight (TOF or ToF). Time difference of arrival ( TDOA) is the difference between TOAs.
