  • Momentum
    The quantity of motion that an object has
  • Momentum
    Mass in motion
  • Momentum
    • Depends on mass and velocity
    • Directly proportional to mass and velocity
  • Impulse
    The multiplication of applied force and time interval it applied
  • Change in momentum
    Impulse
  • Situations involving momentum and impulse
    • Riding a bus on a curvy road
    • Bus travelling on a straight road
    • Change in number of passengers on the bus
  • When an object slows down or moves faster, its velocity decreases or increases
  • If there is a change in the velocity or the mass of an object, there is also a change in momentum
  • That change of momentum is called Impulse
  • Impulse = Change in Momentum
  • For a fixed value of the change in momentum, the impact force is smaller when the impact time is bigger while the impact force is bigger when the impact time is smaller
  • Impulse - A special name is given to the product of the force applied and the time interval during which it acts.
  • I=ft - In physics, an external force acting on an object over a specific time leads to a change in momentum of the object.
    • It states that the net force is directly proportional to the mass of a body and its acceleration. f =ma Do you still remember Newton’s Second Law of Motion? and in equation form?
  • same change in momentum - same impulse invariably leads to the
  • Momentum depends upon the variables
    mass
    velocity
