Base unit (measurement) aspects of the world, such as time, distance, velocity, mass, temperature, energy, and weight, and "units" are used to describe their magnitude or quantity. Many of these quantities are related to each other by various physical laws, and as a result the units of a quantities can be generally be expressed as a product of powers of other units; for example, momentum is mass multiplied by velocity, while velocity is measured in distance divided by time. These relationships are discussed in dimensional analysis. Those that can be expressed in this fashion in terms of the base units are called .
Delta-v (physics) 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, the change in velocity can thus be expressed as: where: Change in velocity is useful in many cases,
