... q, and let the volume density of this property (the amount of q per unit volume V) be ρ, and the union of all surfaces be denoted by S ... v, which is also equivalent to a flux j of q (a vector function describing the flow per unit area per unit time of q), or in the cases where a velocity field is not useful or applicable, the flux j of ... To illustrate this if j is electric current density (electric current per unit area) and ρ is the charge density (charge per unit volume), then the velocity of the charge carriers is v ...

Famous quotes containing the words area and/or unit:
“If you meet a sectary, or a hostile partisan, never recognize the dividing lines; but meet on what common ground remains,—if only that the sun shines, and the rain rains for both; the area will widen very fast, and ere you know it the boundary mountains, on which the eye had fastened, have melted into air.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“During the Suffragette revolt of 1913 I ... [urged] that what was needed was not the vote, but a constitutional amendment enacting that all representative bodies shall consist of women and men in equal numbers, whether elected or nominated or coopted or registered or picked up in the street like a coroner’s jury. In the case of elected bodies the only way of effecting this is by the Coupled Vote. The representative unit must not be a man or a woman but a man and a woman.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
