Relativistic angular momentum can be compactly abbreviated in tensor index notation where the indices "i" and "j" take the values 1, 2, 3. On the other hand, the components can be systematically displayed fully in a 3 × 3 antisymmetric matrix This quantity is additive, and for an isolated system, the total angular momentum of a system is conserved. In classical mechanics, the three-dimensional quantity for a particle of mass "m" moving with velocity u has the dimensions of "mass moment" – length multiplied by mass. It is related to the boost (relative velocity) of the centre of mass (COM) of the particle
Four-velocity are multiplied by the four-velocity, one then gets new physical four-vectors that have 4 independent components. For example: Effectively, the formula_27 factor combines with the Lorentz scalar term to make the 4th independent component Using the differential of the four-position, the magnitude of the four-velocity can be obtained: in short, the magnitude of the four-velocity for any object is always a fixed constant: The norm is also: so that: which reduces to the definition the Lorentz factor. Four-velocity In physics, in particular in special relativity and general relativity, a four-velocity is a four-vector in four-dimensional spacetime that represents the relativistic
