Variable-mass system events. The following derivation is for a body that is gaining mass (accretion). A body of time-varying mass "m" moves at a velocity v at an initial time "t". In the same instant, a particle of mass dm moves with velocity u. The initial momentum can be written as Now at a time "t" + d"t", let both the main body and the particle accrete into a body of velocity v + dv. Thus the new momentum of the system can be written as Since d"m"dv is the product of two small values, it can be ignored, meaning during d"t"
Dot product representation of a graph called the dot product dimension. Dot product representation of a graph A dot product representation of a simple graph is a method of representing a graph using vector spaces and the dot product from linear algebra. Every graph has a dot product representation. Let "G" be a graph with vertex set "V". Let "F" be a field, and "f" a function from "V" to "F" such that "xy" is an edge of "G" if and only if "f"("x")·"f"("y") ≥ "t". This is the dot product representation of "G". The number "t" is called the dot product threshold, and the smallest
