Areal velocity equal to the magnitude of the cross product of vectors "AB" and "AC". This area can also be viewed as a vector with this magnitude, pointing in a direction perpendicular to the parallelogram; this vector is the cross product itself: Hence The areal velocity is this vector area divided by Δ"t" in the limit that Δ"t" becomes vanishingly small: But, formula_4 is the velocity vector formula_5 of the moving particle, so that On the other hand, the angular momentum of the particle is and hence the angular momentum equals 2"m" times the areal velocity. Conservation of areal velocity is a
History of physics position measurements. Space and time become intertwined concepts, fundamentally dependent on the observer. Each observer presides over his or her own space-time framework or coordinate system. There being no absolute frame of reference, all observers of given events make different but equally valid (and reconcilable) measurements. What remains absolute is stated in Einstein's relativity postulate: "The basic laws of physics are identical for two observers who have a constant relative velocity with respect to each other." Special Relativity had a profound effect on physics: started as a rethinking of the theory of electromagnetism, it found a new symmetry law of
