   The flywheel material with the highest specific tensile strength will yield the highest energy storage per unit mass. This is one reason why carbon fiber is a material of interest. For a given design the stored energy is proportional to the hoop stress and the volume. [citation needed] An electric motor-powered flywheel is common in practice.

5. Prince Rupert's cube - Wikipedia

   A unit cube with a hole cut through it, large enough to allow Prince Rupert's cube to pass. In geometry, Prince Rupert's cube is the largest cube that can pass through a hole cut through a unit cube without splitting it into separate pieces. Its side length is approximately 1.06, 6% larger than the side length 1 of the unit cube through which ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_(computer_storage)

   The first magnetic tape drive, the Univac Uniservo, recorded at the density of 128 bit/in on a half-inch magnetic tape, resulting in the areal density of 256 bit/in 2. [6] In 2015, IBM and Fujifilm claimed a new record for the magnetic tape areal density of 123 Gbit/in 2 , [ 7 ] while LTO-6 , the highest-density production tape shipping in 2015 ...
