Momentum (Velocity)
Description
Momentum is a measure of an object tendency to move in a straight line with constant speed. Linear momentum or translational momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object.
Momentum has a direction and it can be used to predict the resulting direction of objects after they collide, as well as their speeds.
Variables
ΔP | Momentum (kg*m/s) |
m | Mass (kg) |
ΔV | Velocity Change (m/s) |
