ImpulseImpulse
Momentum = mass x velocityMomentum = mass x velocitySince F = ma and a = Since F = ma and a = ∆∆v / t , F = m v / t , F = m
∆∆v / tv / tTherefore F t = m Therefore F t = m ∆v, or∆v, or Impulse = change of momentumImpulse = change of momentumThe larger the impulse, the greater is The larger the impulse, the greater is
the change in velocity.the change in velocity.Application?Application?
ImpulseImpulse
Hence, to increase velocity, we either Hence, to increase velocity, we either increase F or t (time of contact).increase F or t (time of contact).
Remember, Remember, F = m F = m ∆∆v / tv / tTo reduce impact, encourage soft To reduce impact, encourage soft

Conservation of momentumConservation of momentum
Momentum is conserved when there Momentum is conserved when there is no external forcesis no external forces
