    2007 Toyota Yaris hatchback owner's manual 1919 Ford Motor Company car and truck operating manual. An owner's manual (also called an instruction manual or a user guide) is an instructional book or booklet that is supplied with almost all technologically advanced consumer products such as vehicles, home appliances and computer peripherals.

  3. Four-momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-momentum

    Calculating the Minkowski norm squared of the four-momentum gives a Lorentz invariant quantity equal (up to factors of the speed of light c) to the square of the particle's proper mass: = = = + | | = where = is the metric tensor of special relativity with metric signature for definiteness chosen to be (–1, 1, 1, 1).

  4. Four-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-force

    The four-force is defined as the rate of change in the four-momentum of a particle with respect to the particle's proper time.Hence,: =. For a particle of constant invariant mass >, the four-momentum is given by the relation =, where = (,) is the four-velocity.

  5. Angular momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_momentum

    The trivial case of the angular momentum of a body in an orbit is given by = where is the mass of the orbiting object, is the orbit's frequency and is the orbit's radius.. The angular momentum of a uniform rigid sphere rotating around its axis, instead, is given by = where is the sphere's mass, is the frequency of rotation and is the sphere's radius.

  6. Specific impulse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_impulse

    Essentially, the momentum of engine exhaust includes a lot more than just fuel, but specific impulse calculation ignores everything but the fuel. Even though the effective exhaust velocity for an air-breathing engine seems nonsensical in the context of actual exhaust velocity, this is still useful for comparing absolute fuel efficiency of ...

  7. Momentum theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum_Theory

    An actuator disk accelerating a fluid flow from right to left. In fluid dynamics, momentum theory or disk actuator theory is a theory describing a mathematical model of an ideal actuator disk, such as a propeller or helicopter rotor, by W.J.M. Rankine (1865), [1] Alfred George Greenhill (1888) and Robert Edmund Froude (1889).

  8. Momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum

    In Newtonian mechanics, momentum (pl.: momenta or momentums; more specifically linear momentum or translational momentum) is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. . It is a vector quantity, possessing a magnitude and a directi

  9. Four-vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-vector

    A four-vector A is a vector with a "timelike" component and three "spacelike" components, and can be written in various equivalent notations: [3] = (,,,) = + + + = + = where A α is the magnitude component and E α is the basis vector component; note that both are necessary to make a vector, and that when A α is seen alone, it refers strictly to the components of the vector.
