MOMENTUM AND IMPULSE
TAYLER MECHTEL
MOMENTUM
• Inertia in motion
• Newton’s First Law
• If an object is not moving, it’s momentum is 0
• Momentum=Mass x Velocity (P=MV)
• Momentum=P
IMPULSE
• A force acting on an object for a duration of time to change the object’s momentum
• Impulse=Force x Time
• Impulse=(Delta)Momentum x Velocity
• SI Unit for Impulse is Newtons/Second
• Impulse Force SI Unit is Newtons
