k
a decagon. with a "c" not a "k".
It is the amount if current it takes for unit deflection in the given galvanometer. k = I/theta Where k is the figure of merit, I is the current supplied and Theta equals the number of divisions of deflection.
If a linear transformation acts on a vector and the result is only a change in the vector's magnitude, not direction, that vector is called an eigenvector of that particular linear transformation, and the magnitude that the vector is changed by is called an eigenvalue of that eigenvector.Formulaically, this statement is expressed as Av=kv, where A is the linear transformation, vis the eigenvector, and k is the eigenvalue. Keep in mind that A is usually a matrix and k is a scalar multiple that must exist in the field of which is over the vector space in question.
Zales (and perhaps others) uses a letter after the K to refer to a particular vendor. Your piece is solid 14K gold.
