Horizontal plane — In astronomy, geography, geometry and related sciences and contexts, a plane is said to be horizontal at a given point if it is locally perpendicular to the gradient of the gravity field, i.e., with the direction of the gravitational force (per… … Wikipedia
Local hidden variable theory — In quantum mechanics, a local hidden variable theory is one in which distant events are assumed to have no instantaneous (or at least faster than light) effect on local ones. According to the quantum entanglement theory of quantum mechanics, on… … Wikipedia
Horizontal coordinate system — The horizontal coordinate system is a celestial coordinate system that uses the observer s local horizon as the fundamental plane. This conveniently divides the sky into the upper hemisphere that you can see, and the lower hemisphere that you… … Wikipedia
Flight dynamics — is the science of air and space vehicle orientation and control in three dimensions. The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle s center of mass, known as pitch , roll and yaw… … Wikipedia
Pressure gradient — In atmospheric sciences (meteorology, climatology and related fields), the pressure gradient (typically of air, more generally of any fluid) is a physical quantity that describes in which direction and at what rate the pressure changes the most… … Wikipedia
