Spacetime as a redshift and analyze the effect in terms of scenarios (b) or (d). In classical mechanics, the state of motion of a particle is characterized by its mass and its velocity. Linear momentum, the product of a particle's mass and velocity, is a vector quantity, possessing the same direction as the velocity: p = "mv". It is a "conserved" quantity, meaning that if a closed system is not affected by external forces, its total linear momentum cannot change. In relativistic mechanics, the momentum vector is extended to four dimensions. Added to the momentum vector is a time component that
Linear density unit of mass, formula_9, is equal to the product of its linear mass density, formula_10, and the infinitesimal unit of length, formula_11: The linear mass density can then be understood as the derivative of the mass function with respect to the one dimension of the rod (the position along its length formula_13) The SI unit of linear mass density is the kilogram per meter (kg/m). Linear density of fibers and yarns can be measured by many methods. The simplest one is to measure a length of material and weigh it. However, this requires a large sample and masks the variability
