Differentiate the Friedmann equation and use
After cancelling the curvature term with the original Friedmann equation, one obtains the Friedmann acceleration equation
The Newtonian derivation does not explain why pressure gravitates through the term; that input enters only through a relativistic-looking continuity law. It also treats space and time as Euclidean and absolute, so it cannot supply the spacetime meaning of curvature , horizons, or the global geometry of the cosmological model.
Take downward velocity as positive. Lubrication theory reduces the axial momentum equation to a constant pressure gradient, and the no-slip conditions are , . Twice integrating gives
The flux per unit circumference and the total gap flux are
The shear at the cylinder is
with the fluid traction on the falling cylinder opposing its motion.
The descending solid displaces volume at rate , so closed-container mass conservation gives
Since , the Couette-flux term is smaller, and
The pressure or form drag is
Using the pressure-dominated part of , the side shear force is of order
so . Balancing form drag against the excess weight gives
This is annular lubrication drag on a settling cylinder.
For the outgoing wave, the pressure and velocity amplitudes are and . Its time-averaged acoustic energy flux is therefore
If , then and
If , then

When and , the half-integer family is strongly resonantly enhanced relative to the integer family by approximately at equal .
Use complex fields with time factor and put . The outgoing potential in is
Continuity of pressure and velocity at gives
Hence
The piston condition , with , gives
This is the transmitted velocity potential from a piston through an acoustic interface.
An intensive quantity is unchanged when the size of a homogeneous system is scaled; temperature and pressure are examples. An extensive quantity scales in proportion to system size; volume and particle number are examples. Energy and entropy are also extensive, while chemical potential is intensive. These are intensive and extensive thermodynamic quantities.
Since and ,
To first order, continuity and the divergence of Euler give
Eliminating and using yields
The second term is Hubble damping, gravity drives growth, and pressure produces oscillatory restoration. Their balance defines
Modes longer than the Jeans length are gravitationally unstable; shorter modes are pressure supported.
The tensor is the flux of the th component of electromagnetic momentum across a surface normal to the direction, with the sign convention used in the conservation law. Its diagonal components are normal momentum fluxes, interpreted as electromagnetic pressures or tensions. Its off-diagonal components are tangential momentum fluxes, interpreted as shear stresses.
With streamwise and normal velocities , zero exterior pressure gradient gives the steady boundary-layer equations
At the organism,
and matching to the quiescent exterior requires as .
If , then with chosen so that the disturbance decays as . The pressure amplitude is then ninety degrees out of phase with , since is purely imaginary. Hence
In the Dieterici equation, is the excluded volume per particle caused by short-range repulsion. The positive constant measures cohesive attraction, which lowers the pressure through the Boltzmann factor.
The interface is the material level set . The condition gives
which is the stated equation.
Let the perturbation potentials inside and outside be
Linearizing the kinematic condition at gives
The linearized interior Euler equations give
whereas the stationary exterior gives . Since the basic interior pressure has , pressure continuity on the displaced boundary is
Eliminating and gives the circular vortex-sheet mode relation
so
The mode is a neutral displacement. Every mode has one exponentially growing branch, so the circular interface rolls up through a Kelvin--Helmholtz instability. Its pattern angular velocity is , in the direction of the gyre but slower than the solid-body motion; the disturbances therefore propagate upstream relative to the rotating water.
Take the downstream tissue pressure as gauge zero. The two transverse momentum fluxes cancel. The force of the fluid on the junction is axial and equals
where , and the pressure difference is that in part (i).
Take vertically downward and outward from the wall, with the film occupying . The ambient pressure is
At , normal stress continuity gives and zero ambient shear gives ; at the wall, no slip gives .
For steady parallel flow , incompressibility is automatic and Navier–Stokes reduces to
Since , integration yields
In the fluid region , incompressibility and potential flow give
No penetration through the exact surface gives
The condition says the hill slope is small; says the disturbance velocity is small compared with the background wind. Dropping the product and Taylor-shifting the boundary from to therefore gives
The decaying solution is
Bernoulli's equation is
To first order on the surface,
Thus
Equivalently, crest minus trough is the negative of this. For , hydrostatic elevation dominates; for , the Bernoulli pressure drop caused by faster crest flow dominates.
The two binodal compositions are the contact points of the common-tangent construction. Equivalently, they solve
The first equality is equality of chemical potential; the second is equality of pressure. Here
together with the intercept equation determines the two densities. As , both contact points approach zero continuously with scale , so this mean-field onset of phase separation is continuous.
The normalized one-particle height density is exponential:
Consequently
The number density and local ideal-gas pressure are
This also obeys hydrostatic balance .
