Effective mass (solid-state physics) from both sides gives where is the th element of , is the th element of , and are the th and th elements of , respectively, and is the total energy of the particle according to the Planck–Einstein relation. The index is contracted by the use of Einstein notation (there is an implicit summation over ). Since Newton's second law uses the inertial mass (not the gravitational mass), we can identify the inverse of this mass in the equation above as the tensor This tensor expresses the change in group velocity due to a change in crystal momentum. Its
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
