Definition: Relating to or capable of speeds that are five times faster than the speed of sound.

Example: The hypersonic missile can travel at speeds that exceed five times the speed of sound.

Definition: In a manner that relates to or involves speeds that are significantly greater than the speed of sound, typically defined as speeds greater than five times the speed of sound.

Example: The spacecraft traveled hypersonically, allowing it to reach its destination much faster than conventional aircraft.

Definition: A type of space that exists beyond the normal three dimensions, often used in science fiction to allow for faster-than-light travel or other extraordinary phenomena.

Example: In the movie, the spaceship traveled through hyperspace to reach distant galaxies in a matter of seconds.

Definition: Relating to or containing a specific mineral called hypersthene, which is a type of silicate mineral found in some igneous rocks.

Example: The geologist studied the hypersthenic rock samples to understand their mineral composition.

Definition: A surface that exists in a space with one more dimension than itself, often used in mathematics and physics to describe complex shapes or boundaries.

Example: In advanced geometry, a hypersurface can represent the boundary of a higher-dimensional object.

Definition: A system that allows users to navigate through text and documents by clicking on links, making it easier to access related information.

Example: The website uses hypertext to connect different articles and resources.

Definition: Relating to a system of linking text in a way that allows users to navigate between different pieces of information easily.

Example: The website uses hypertextual links to connect various articles and resources.

Definition: A medical condition where muscles are excessively tight or stiff, often leading to difficulty in movement.

Example: The patient was diagnosed with hypertonicity, which made it hard for him to relax his muscles.

Definition: Relating to an increase in the size of an organ or tissue due to the enlargement of its cells.

Example: The athlete's hypertrophic muscles were a result of intense training and weightlifting.

Definition: An increase in the size of an organ or tissue due to the enlargement of its cells, often seen in muscles.

Example: After months of training, he experienced significant muscle hypertrophy.

Definition: To grow or make something grow larger than normal, often referring to muscles or tissues in the body.
