Delta-v (physics) such as determining the change in momentum (impulse), where :formula_4, where formula_5 is momentum and m is mass. Delta-v (physics) Delta comes as the 4th letter in the greek alphabets which is spell as 'D' in the english alphabets . In general physics, delta-"v" is simply a change in velocity. The Greek uppercase letter delta is the standard mathematical symbol to represent change in some quantity. Depending on the situation, delta-"v" can be either a spatial vector (Δv) or scalar (Δ"v"). In either case it is equal to the acceleration (vector or scalar) integrated over time: If acceleration is constant,
Atomic mass constant Atomic mass constant In physics and chemistry, the atomic mass constant, "m", is one twelfth of the mass of an unbound atom of carbon-12 at rest and in its ground state. It serves to define the atomic mass unit and is, by definition, equal to 1 u. It is inverse of Avogadro constant (1/N) when expressed in grams (instead of SI unit kilogram). The CODATA recommended value is In practice, the atomic mass constant is determined as the ratio of the electron rest mass "m" to the electron relative atomic mass "A"(e) (that is, the mass of the electron on
