momentum Flashcards
definition of momentum
mass in motion
product of mass and velocity
symbol of momentum
p
formula of momentum
mass multiplied by velocity
all stationery objects have zero momentum because of
zero velocity
unit of momentum
kg.m/s
principle of conversion of momentum
the total momentum of a system before an event/collision is equal to the total momentum of a system after an event/collision
definition of impulse
it is the product of the force and changes in time
impulse is equal to a change in momentum
impulse is represented in
I
formula of impulse
I = f multiplied by change in time
or
I = changed in momentum
momentum is measured in ———— and change in momentum is measured in ——-
momentum kg/m/s
change in momentum = NS
unit of impulse
NM
change in v
v2 -v1
change in time
t2 - t1
