Derivation of the Navier–Stokes equations equation), three important concepts may be concisely written: conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and conservation of energy. Validity is retained if formula_5 is a vector, in which case the vector-vector product in the second term will be a dyad. A general momentum equation is obtained when the conservation relation is applied to momentum. If the intensive property formula_5; considered is the mass flux (also "momentum density"), i.e. the product of mass density and flow velocity formula_17, by substitution in the general continuum equation: where formula_19 is a dyad, a special case of tensor product, which results in a second
Escape velocity In gravitational fields, "escape velocity" refers to the escape velocity of zero mass test particles relative to the barycenter of the masses generating the field. In most situations involving spacecraft the difference is negligible. For a mass equal to a Saturn V rocket, the escape velocity relative to the launch pad is 253.5 am/s (8 nanometers per year) faster than the escape velocity relative to the mutual center of mass. Ignoring all factors other than the gravitational force between the body and the object, an object projected vertically at speed formula_16 from the surface of a spherical body with escape
