Impulse and MomentumImpulse and momentum stem from Newton’s Second Law:

Impulse (FΔt): The product of the force and the time it acts on an object. (N·s)

Momentum (ρ = m Δv): The product of mass of an object and its velocity. (kg·m/s)

Impulse Momentum Theorem: Equation seen here.

Angular MomentumAngular Momentum (L): The product of a rotating object’s moment of inertia and its angular velocity. (kg·m2/s)

Conservation of Momentum

Closed System: A system where no mass is gained or lost

Isolated System: No external forces interfering.

Conservation of Momentum: Momentum in a closed, isolated system will never change.
