Momentum

1.6 Momentum

 1 Define momentum as mass*velocity; recall and use the equation p = mv

 2 Define impulse as force*time for which force acts; recall and use the equation impulse = Ft = (mv)

 3 Apply the principle of the conservation of momentum to solve simple problems in one dimension

 4 Define resultant force as the change in momentum per unit time; recall and use the equation F = dp/ dt
