    An equation in fluid dynamic ~ me ~

    When I studied the fluid dynamic , I saw a quite hard equation (typed in attached file) , I don't know how to prove it , maybe there's a somehow relationship between this eq with Gauss's Divergence Theorem ... Can anyone help me ?

    Static and dynamic spring constants

    Should the static spring constant and dynamic spring constant of the same spring be the same value (or very close to the same value)? I know the difference between the two is that static is found by measuring the displacement from equilibrium by adding different weights and dynamic is found by...

    Modelling a dynamic system of permutations

    Let us assume a dynamic system which has vector with 'n' components (which are non-negative integers from 1->n) at time t=1. In other words we have a permutation over 1->n at time t=1. Assuming time to be discrete, at any time time 't' , the system evolves such that there are 't' permutations...

    What is the Correct Definition of Dynamic Resistance and Resistivity?

    I'm confused about dynamic resistance. The definition I've seen is Rd = dV/dI. Is it also ok to write it Rd = d(IR)/dI, so that Rd = R + I dR/dI ? I couldn't find a straightforward definition for dynamic resistivity at all … is it ρd = d(Iρ)dI = ρ + I dρ/dI ?
