alias “c”

edit

@Zyksnowy: why did you add the alias “c”? I don’t understand what it has to do with this item, and it means that when searching for “c” this item now appears before speed of light in vacuum (Q2111), which doesn’t make much sense IMHO. --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 21:21, 19 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

i'm sorry,the information is from zhwiki[1]
1736年歐拉的《力學》(
Mechanica
)。雖然往後年日有研究者用字母c表示,但 較常用,終於成為標準。

I have never considered search results for “c” before--Zyksnowy (talk) 21:58, 19 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Zyksnowy: hm, according to the dewiki article c was used in the Histoire de l’Académie by Jean le Rond d'Alembert (Q153232). Not sure if that justifies the alias… --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 00:32, 20 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
