This can be solved by noting a more general formulation:
Their general formulation depends on splitting the theorem into two parts.
The expression, given here, are not the most general formulations of the first and second law.
As above, one can also construct a more general formulation for integrals over a finite volume.
The most general formulation of the theorem needs some preparation.
It is the most general formulation of a measurement in the theory of quantum physics.
In a more general formulation, the forces could be both potential and viscous.
The general formulation above shows how these extensions can be accomplished.
In the most general formulation, collection requirement as simply "a statement of information to be collected."
To explain Mercer's theorem, we first consider an important special case; see below for a more general formulation.
