Homework Statement
In textbooks one can find two forms of momentum conservation
equations. For example, for two-dimensional flow for U component
of flow velocity along axis x these two forms can be written as

and

It is a general practice in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to
solve momentum equation in the form (2) for computational
efficiency, stability and convergence.
Using the mass conservation equation for variable density flows

demonstrate that these two forms of the momentum conservation
equations are equivalent.
Relevant Equations
momentum conservation equations
mass conservation equation
I attached a PDF file where it clearly show the question and I showed my solution because trying to type it here will be quite hard
I want to check if my solution is correct

looks good, even though you could have used a nicer notation ;)
 
thank you, but do you have any advice on how to write it better
 
It just a suggestion, it doesn't really matter as long as you get the concepts right.

BTW in most textbooks the vector notation is employed (using ##Nabla## and ## \mathbf v ## instead of the sigle components).

A part from that there is nothing really to say.

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
