IBM 729 the tape reel. A 3/4 inch gap between records allowed the mechanism enough time to stop the tape. Initial tape speed was 75 inches per second (2.95 m/s) and recording density was 200 characters per inch, giving a transfer speed of 120 kbit/s. Later 729 models supported 556 and 800 characters/inch (transfer speed 480 kbit/s). At 200 characters per inch, a single 2400 foot tape could store the equivalent of some 50,000 punched cards (about 4,000,000 six-bit bytes, or 3 MByte). The 729 series was superseded by 9 track tape drives introduced with the IBM System/360. The IBM 729 I
Square root of 5 of a side located on one the faces containing that vertex and opposite to it, are in the ratio This follows from the geometrical relationships between a cube and the quantities (edge-to-face-diagonal ratio, or distance between opposite edges), (edge-to-cube-diagonal ratio) and (the relationship just mentioned above). A rectangle with side proportions 1: is called a "root-five rectangle" and is part of the series of root rectangles, a subset of dynamic rectangles, which are based on and successively constructed using the diagonal of the previous root rectangle, starting from a square. A root-5 rectangle is particularly notable in that it can
