| - | The continuity equation states that the $\color{red}{\text{total amount of a quantity (like water) that is produced (or destroyed) inside some volume}}$ is proportional to the $\color{blue}{\text{change of the quantity}}$ plus the $\color{magenta}{\text{total amount that flows in minus the amount that flows out of the volume}}$. | + | The continuity equation states that the total $\color{blue}{\text{change of some quantity}}$ is equal to the $\color{red}{\text{amount that gets produced}}$ minus the amount that $\color{magenta}{\text{flows out of the volume}}$. |
