Center of mass rigid body, the gravity forces will not cause the body to rotate, which means the weight of the body can be considered to be concentrated at the center of mass. The linear and angular momentum of a collection of particles can be simplified by measuring the position and velocity of the particles relative to the center of mass. Let the system of particles "P", "i"=1...,"n" of masses "m" be located at the coordinates r with velocities v. Select a reference point R and compute the relative position and velocity vectors, The total linear and angular momentum vectors relative to the
Mass balance stoichiometric mass of air is , so AFR = 14.56. The combustion product mass is then . At exact stoichiometry, should be absent. At 15 percent excess air, the AFR = 16.75, and the mass of the combustion product gas is , which contains of excess oxygen. The combustion gas thus contains 2.84 percent by mass. The relationships between percent excess air and % in the combustion gas are accurately expressed by quadratic equations, valid over the range 0–30 percent excess air: In the second example we will use the law of mass action to derive the expression for a
