Orphan date February 2009 The F factor , in diagnostic radiology , is the conversion factor between rontgen s and rad unit rads or, in more modern units, coulomb s kg to gray unit grays . In other words, it converts between the amount of ionization in air rontgens and the absorbed dose in tissue rads . The two determinants are of the F factor are the atomic number effective Z of the material and the type of ionizing radiation being considered. Since the effective Z of air and soft tissue is approximately the same, the F factor is approximately 1 for many x ray imaging applications. However, bone has an F factor of up to 4, due to its higher effective Z. References Bushberg et al., 2002. The Essential Physics of Medical Imaging.

A scale factor is a number which scaling geometry scales , or multiplies, some quantity. In the equation y Cx , C is the scale factor for x . C is also the coefficient of x , and may be called the constant of proportionality of y to x . For example, doubling distances corresponds to a scale factor of 2 for distance, while cutting a cake in half results in pieces with a scale factor of . The basic equation for it is image over preimage. In the field of measurements, the scale factor of an instrument is sometimes referred to as sensitivity.

It is Defined as the ratio between strained or transverse section and free or lateral area. Its usefulness in certain engineering disciplines is demonstrated by the effect which shape can have on the bending and fracture strength of materials tabulating these allows greater accuracy in gauging the usefulness of a material in a given situation. For example, a solid steel bar is very inefficient at resisting deflection and is very heavy for the strength it affords in certain situations, replacing it with an I beam will make for a more efficient design.

Orphan date March 2011 In power engineering , winding factor is what makes the rms generated voltage in a three phase AC electrical generator become lesser. This is because the Armature electrical engineering armature winding of each phase is distributed in a number of slots. Since the Electromagnetic field emf induced in different slots are not in phase, their phasor sum is less than their numerical sum. This reduction factor is called distribution factor K sub d sub . Another factor that can reduce the winding factor is when the slot pitch is smaller than the pole pitch, called pitch factor K sub p sub . The winding factor can be calculated as K sub w sub K sub d sub K sub p sub . Most of the three phase machines have winding factor values between 0.85 and 0.95. With the free online winding editor from http www.eme.ee.kth.se emetor emetor.php Emetor , it is possible to determine the fundamental winding factor as well as the winding factor space harmonics for different winding arrangements as a function of the number of slots and number of poles of the winding.

Factor Xa is inactivated by protein Z dependent protease inhibitor ZPI , a serine protease inhibitor serpin . The affinity of this protein for factor Xa is increased 1000 fold by the presence of protein Z , while it does not require protein Z for inactivation of factor XI . Defects in protein Z lead to increased factor Xa activity and a propensity for thrombosis. The half life of factor X is 40 45 hours. Structure of Factor Xa The first crystal structure of human factor Xa was deposited in May 1993.

Orphan date July 2008 att July 2008 Technical date July 2008 In finance, a pool factor is a number expressed as a factor of one that is used to indicate the remaining principal balance of a note. Pool factors are only used to describe specific classes of securities, namely pooled ABSs and MBSs whose component payments are returned to investors on a monthly basis ref http www.investopedia.com terms p poolfactor.asp Investopedia Pool Factor ref . Pool factors are published monthly for Ginnie Mae , Fannie Mae , and Freddie Mac Mortgage backed security mortgage backed securities ref http www.forbes.com tools glossary search.jhtml?term pool factor Forbes Financial Glossary Pool Factor ref . To calculate the pool factor, br math Outstanding Principal Balance over Original Principal Balance Pool Factor math br For example, a pool factor of 0.523 indicates that for each note of 10,000, 4,770 of principal has been repaid. If one multiplies the original face value of mortage back security with the pool factor we get the current face value . Usage Asset backed security Asset backed securities and MBSs typically contain issue terms that specify a method through which redeeming principal is shared among investors. When redemption is done pro rata , a pool factor is useful to investors in cases of early repayment. Early repayment reduces the amount of collateral finance collateral available for an issue, and therefore some of the outstanding principal is returned to investors as stated in the issue terms. In this case, the pool factor is used to indicate how the remaining outstanding principal is adequately securitized ref Choudhry, Moorad, et al. Capital Market Instruments Analysis and Valuation .

Simply put, factor price is why the price of an item tends to approach the cost of producing it. There has been much debate as to what determines factor prices. Classical economics Classical and Marxist school of economics Marxist economists argued that factor prices decided the value of a product and therefore the value was Intrinsic theory of value intrinsic within the product. For this reason, the term natural price is often used instead. Marginalist economists argue that the factor price is a function of the demand for the final product, and so they are imputation economics imputed from the finished product.
