The Latin word for distance is spatium. It's also the source of the English word space. For this reason, we will use s0 (s nought) for the initial position on a path, s for the position on the path any time after that, and Îs (delta s) for the space traversed going from the one position to another â the distance.
Another is social stigma, or the possibility of public advocacy due to such a factor. Critical mass may be closer to majority consensus in political circles, where the most effective position is more often that held by the majority of people in society.nother is social stigma, or the possibility of public advocacy due to such a factor.

In physics, massâenergy equivalence is the concept that mass and energy are the same thing, so that every mass has an energy equivalent and vice versa. This relationship is expressed using the formula.where E is the energy of a physical system, m is the mass of the system, and c is the speed of light in a vacuum (about 7008300000000000000â 3Ã108 m/s). In words, energy equals mass multiplied by the speed of light squared.Because the speed of light is a very large number in everyday units, the formula implies that any small amount of matter contains a very large amount of energy. Some of this energy may be released as heat and light by nuclear transformations.n physics, massâenergy equivalence is the concept that mass and energy are the same thing, so that every mass has an energy equivalent and vice versa.
