Compressibility quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Compressibility card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
The ______ of compressibility at fixed temperature is called the isothermal bulk modulus.
Answer
reciprocal. The reciprocal of compressibility at fixed temperature is called the isothermal bulk modulus. From the Compressibility article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Dose–response relationship. Dose–response relationship 63 · Compressibility 60 · Neighbourhood 56 · Lifebuoy 49 ATK in WikiCards.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In its simple form, the compressibility κ may be expressed as β = − 1 V ∂ V ∂ p, where V is volume and p is pressure.
- The choice to define compressibility as the negative of the fraction makes compressibility positive in the case that an increase in pressure induces a reduction in volume.
- The reciprocal of compressibility at fixed temperature is called the isothermal bulk modulus.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Compressibility article was read about 34,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 60 and blocks with 36: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
How to get Compressibility
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
