[edit] Factor?

What's the Factor column then? And why is it based upon the LP?! I'm sure it's obvious, but I can't see it. Robert Crowdy 17:49, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Robert, Factor is the scientific notation of the rad/s value, so for example the ×10³ section contains all rad/s from 1000 to 9999.

An LP record, at 3.49 rad/s falls into the 1.0 to 9.9 range (×10⁰, or 1), other than that there's no special meaning! Marasmusine 18:03, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
