    • momentum = mass x velocity
    • conservation of momentum - total momentum before an event is equal to the total momentum after the event.
    • impulse = change in momentum / time
    • force = impulse / time
    • Newton's first law states that if there are no forces acting on an object, it will continue at constant speed or remain stationary.
    • newton's first law states that if there are no forces acting on an object, it will continue at constant speed or remain stationary.
    • Newton's second law states that force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma).
    • newtons second law states that force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma)
    • energy transfer = energy stored + energy lost
    • Newton's third law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
    • newtons third law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
    • momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity (p=mv)
    • momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity (p=mv) and has units of kgm/s.
