  • I see it like F = d/dt (mv) as the (time) rate of change of mv . But that can also be expressed as d(mv)/dt - it's just a notion. Because M is constant (in newton mechanics) then:

    d(mv) = M x dv, as the product is constant, as M is constant.

    And from them you see dv/dt as A.

  • Note:

    This video is about the difference between

    (1) The full derivative with respect to time (which I think can be written with capital (D/Dt) or lowercase (d/dt). Because the material property is a function of space and time, with D/Dt we assume that a particle is being followed so x y and z depend on time.

    and

    (2) The partial derivative with respect to time, which would be written with the partial derivative symbol rather than d or D.

  • can you explain it in terms of current flow into a capacitor? {i = C * dv/dt} yet {i(t) = C * d/dt * v(t)} fluid mechanics make alot of good analogies for electronics. if dt is a time iterval then what is the d ?

  • I would say that the two equations you wrote are equivalent. You can think of d/dt as a symbol that just means "take the derivative with respect to t." Another way to think of it is dv divided by dt, where if you are at time t and you take a very small step in time, called dt, then the value of the function v will change by dv when you take that step.

  • ...derive with respect to t

  • differentiate. you're not deriving anything

  • man.....plz tell me u ain't a teacher

  • advice: take some rhetoric lessons
