1
New cards

momentum

a vector quantity defined as the product of the mass and velocity of an object

2
New cards

impulse

the product of the force and the time over which the force acts on an object

3
New cards

Impulse-Momentum Theorum

states that the impulse on an object is equal to the change in its momentum.

4
New cards

Conservation of Momentum

states that the total momentum of an isolated system remains constant if no external forces act on it.

5
New cards

perfectly inelastic collision

a collision in which two objects stick together after colliding, conserving momentum but not kinetic energy.

6
New cards

elastic collision

a collision in which two objects collide and then separate, conserving both momentum and kinetic energy.
