  2. Momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum

    where f is the body force. [36] The Cauchy momentum equation is broadly applicable to deformations of solids and liquids. The relationship between the stresses and the strain rate depends on the properties of the material (see Types of viscosity).

  3. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Alternatively, momentum and force can be represented as four-vectors. [83]: 107 Newton's third law must be modified in special relativity. The third law refers to the forces between two bodies at the same moment in time, and a key feature of special relativity is that simultaneity is relative.

  4. Impulse (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_(physics)

    The impulse delivered by a varying force is the integral of the force F with respect to time: =. The SI unit of impulse is the newton second (N⋅s), and the dimensionally equivalent unit of momentum is the kilogram metre per second (kg⋅m/s).

  5. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    Relationship between force F, torque τ, linear momentum p, and angular momentum L in a system which has rotation constrained to only one plane (forces and moments due to gravity and friction not considered).

  6. Angular momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_momentum

    The relationship between the angular momentum operator and the rotation operators is the same as the relationship between Lie algebras and Lie groups in mathematics. The close relationship between angular momentum and rotations is reflected in Noether's theorem that proves that angular momentum is conserved whenever the laws of physics are ...

  7. Moment (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_(physics)

    The moment of force, or torque, is a first moment: =, or, more generally, .; Similarly, angular momentum is the 1st moment of momentum: =.Momentum itself is not a moment.; The electric dipole moment is also a 1st moment: = for two opposite point charges or () for a distributed charge with charge density ().

  8. Energy–momentum relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy–momentum_relation

    For photons, this is the relation, discovered in 19th century classical electromagnetism, between radiant momentum (causing radiation pressure) and radiant energy. If the body's speed v is much less than c , then ( 1 ) reduces to E = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ m 0 v 2 + m 0 c 2 ; that is, the body's total energy is simply its classical kinetic energy ...

  9. Force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force

    Relationship between force (F), torque (τ), and momentum vectors (p and L) in a rotating system. Main article: Torque Forces that cause extended objects to rotate are associated with torques .
