New cards

momentum

is the product of an object’s mass and it’s velocity

2
New cards

describe momentum as vector

it is a quantity with both magnitude and direction

3
New cards

what makes momentum a vector

its vector nature is due to the velocity

4
New cards

in what direction does momentum move

the direction of momentum is always the same as the direction of the velocity of the object

5
New cards

what factors influence momentum

both mass and velocity

6
New cards

what is the formula of momentum

p = mv

7
New cards

units for momentum

kgm/s

8
New cards

Newtons second law in terms of momentum

the net force acting on an object is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the object in the direction of the net force
