Momentum

The linear momentum of an object of mass moving with a verlocity is defined as the product of the mass and the velocity

2
New cards

Impluse

The time rate of change of momentum of an object is equal to the net force acting on it

3
New cards

Impulse - Momentum Theorem

The impluse acting on the object is equal to the change in momentum of the object

4
New cards

Conservation of Momentum

Momentum in an isolated system in which a collision occurs is conserved

m1v1 + m2v2 = m1v1' + m2v2

5
New cards

Momentum Components

Px = mvx & Py = mvy

6
New cards

Elastic Collision

Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved

m1v1 + m2v2i = m1v1f + m2v2f

7
New cards

Inelastic Collision

Both momentum and kinetic energy are lost

m1v1i + m2v2i = (m1 + m2) v
