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
Mass–energy equivalence equivalence of mass and energy". In addition, Einstein used the formula , with being the energy of a system of mass points, to describe the energy and mass increase of that system when the velocity of the differently moving mass points is increased. In June 1907, Max Planck rewrote Einstein's mass–energy relationship as , where is the pressure and the volume to express the relation between mass, its "latent energy", and thermodynamic energy within the body. Subsequently, in October 1907, this was rewritten as and given a quantum interpretation by Johannes Stark, who assumed its validity and correctness ("Gültigkeit"). In
