These pints are divided into two cups (though the imperial cup is rarely used now), which in turn are divided into two gills (gills are also rarely used). Thus a gallon is equal to four quarts, eight pints, sixteen cups or thirty-two gills.
Binding constant. Home Â» Binding constant. Definition. noun. A mathematical constant that describes the bonding affinity between two molecules at equilibrium. Supplement. It is the measure of the affinity of an enzyme for its substrate. An example is the measure of the strength of binding in the hapten-antibody interaction.
Mr. H should use a spring with a low spring constant (k) . The spring constant (k in the Hooke's law equation) is the ratio of the F/x. If this ratio is low, then there will be a relatively large displacement for any given F value. Being displaced furthest from the equilibrium position will set the spring into a relatively high amplitude vibrational motion.
