Key Math Concepts: Definitions and Theorems
A magnitude is anything that can be measured or counted.
Direct and Inverse Proportionality
Magnitudes directly proportional: If one magnitude is multiplied by a number, the other is divided by the same number automatically. For example, speed and time are inversely proportional; their product is constant.
Magnitudes inversely proportional: If one magnitude is multiplied or divided by a number, the other is divided or multiplied by that number, respectively.
Sequences
A sequence is an infinite set of

Short-Term Interest Rates
An unanticipated change in the monetary policy rate is immediately transmitted to other short-term money market rates.

Types of Levers
First Class Lever: Fulcrum between the load and the effort (R, PA, F).
Second Class Lever: Load between the fulcrum and the effort (PA, R, F).
Third Class Lever: Effort between the fulcrum and the load (PA, F, R).
Mechanical Transmissions
Screw Gear
Used to transmit movement, typically at a 90° angle. It has a single tooth-shaped screw engaging with a toothed wheel. Each rotation of the screw advances the wheel by one tooth. Characteristics include transmitting motion through right angles,
