    In probability and statistics, a moment measure is a mathematical quantity, function or, more precisely, measure that is defined in relation to mathematical objects known as point processes, which are types of stochastic processes often used as mathematical models of physical phenomena representable as randomly positioned points in time, space or both.

    Time value of money problems involve the net value of cash flows at different points in time. In a typical case, the variables might be: a balance (the real or nominal value of a debt or a financial asset in terms of monetary units), a periodic rate of interest, the number of periods, and a series of cash flows. (In the case of a debt, cas

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_point

    In music a time point or timepoint (point in time) is "an instant, analogous to a geometrical point in space". [1] Because it has no duration, it literally cannot be heard, [2] but it may be used to represent "the point of initiation of a single pitch, the repetition of a pitch, or a pitch simultaneity", [3] therefore the beginning of a sound, rather than its duration.

    In other words, the distance between any two given points of a rigid body remains constant in time regardless of the external forces exerted on it. Even though such an object cannot physically exist due to relativity , objects can normally be assumed to be perfectly rigid if they are not moving near the speed of light .
