Equations of motion force the object exerts. Replacing momentum by mass times velocity, the law is also written more famously as since is a constant in Newtonian mechanics. Newton's second law applies to point-like particles, and to all points in a rigid body. They also apply to each point in a mass continua, like deformable solids or fluids, but the motion of the system must be accounted for, see material derivative. In the case the mass is not constant, it is not sufficient to use the product rule for the time derivative on the mass and velocity, and Newton's second law requires some
Angular velocity origin: The relation between this linear map and the angular velocity pseudovector formula_74 is the following. Because "W" is the derivative of an orthogonal transformation, the bilinear form is skew-symmetric. Thus we can apply the fact of exterior algebra that there is a unique linear form formula_76 on formula_77 that where formula_79 is the exterior product of formula_80 and formula_81. Taking the sharp "L" of "L" we get Introducing formula_83, as the Hodge dual of "L", and applying the definition of the Hodge dual twice supposing that the preferred unit 3-vector is formula_84 where by definition. Because formula_81 is an
