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,
Effective mass (solid-state physics) charge. The ultimate speed of integrated circuits depends on the carrier velocity, so the low effective mass is the fundamental reason that GaAs and its derivatives are used instead of Si in high-bandwidth applications like cellular telephony. In April 2017, researchers at Washington State University claimed to have created a fluid with negative effective mass inside a Bose–Einstein condensate, by engineering the dispersion relation. Effective mass (solid-state physics) In solid state physics, a particle's effective mass (often denoted ) is the mass that it "seems" to have when responding to forces, or the mass that it seems to have when
