In mathematics and other sciences, a formula (plural: formulas or formulae ) is a concise way of expressing information symbolically (as in a mathematical or chemical formula), or a general relationship between quantities. One of many famous formulae is Albert Einstein's E = mc (see special relativity).

In mathematics, a formula is a key to solve an equation with variables. For example, the problem of determining the volume of a sphere is one that requires a significant amount of integral calculus to solve. However, having done this once, mathematicians can produce a formula to describe the volume in terms of some other parameter (the radius for example). This particular formula is:

Having determined this result, and having a sphere of which we know the radius we can quickly and easily determine the volume. Note that the quantities V, the volume, and r the radius are expressed as single letters. This convention, while less important in a relatively simple formula, means that mathematicians can more quickly manipulate larger and more complex formulae.

Expressions are distinct from formulas in that they cannot contain an equals sign; whereas formulas are comparable to sentences, expressions are more like phrases.

In a general context, formulae are applied to provide a mathematical solution for real world problems. Some may be general: F = ma, which is one expression of Newton's second law, is applicable to a wide range of physical situations. Other formulae may be specially created to solve a particular problem; for example, using the equation of a sine curve to model the movement of the tides in a bay. In all cases however, formulae form the basis for all calculations.

Is there a formula for permutations in a circle with N repeated elements and K total elements?
Q. Suppose you have N elements that repeat in a circle, and you have k total elements. Is there a specific formula to find the number of permutations in this situation? If there is, include both formula if counter clockwise and clockwise are the same and if counter clockwise and clockwise are different.

What is the formula to find the how high an object may go?
Q. I've been searching for an answer for this, I cannot find the formula I need to calculate how high an object can go. Does anyone wish to share with me what it is? Here is an example. I want to find how high an object went based upon total time in Air, which we shall say is three seconds. What formula am I supposed to use?

A. One hit gets you high, but gravity gets you low. Calculate the time it takes for the speed to reach zero. You get that by dividing the speed and the gravity. Then you multiply that time by the speed at which you're getting higher, and do the difference with half of the gravity time square. And that's how calculate how high you get.
