Momentum §

Group: 4 #group-4

Relations §

• Motion: Momentum is a vector quantity that describes the motion of an object.
• Rotational Motion: Rotational motion involves the angular momentum of an object.
• Dynamics: Momentum is a key concept in dynamics, as it relates to the motion of objects and their resistance to changes in motion.
• Mass: Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, and is conserved in closed systems.
• Conservation of Momentum: In a closed system, the total momentum remains constant unless an external force acts on the system.
• Rocket Propulsion: Rocket propulsion relies on the principle of conservation of momentum, where the expulsion of exhaust gases creates a reaction force.
• Torque: Torque is the rotational equivalent of force, which can change the angular momentum of an object.
• Elastic Collisions: In elastic collisions, kinetic energy and momentum are conserved.
• Newton’s Laws of Motion: Newton’s laws of motion describe the relationship between force, mass, and momentum.
• Velocity: Momentum is directly proportional to the velocity of an object.
• Motion: Momentum is a measure of the motion of an object, calculated as its mass times velocity.
• Linear Momentum: Linear momentum is the momentum of an object moving in a straight line.
• Inelastic Collisions: In inelastic collisions, kinetic energy is not conserved, but momentum is conserved.
• Kinetic Energy: Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the motion of an object, which is related to its momentum.
• Mass: Momentum is directly proportional to the mass of an object.
• Impulse: Impulse is the change in momentum of an object, caused by the application of a force over a time interval.
• Displacement: Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, and is conserved in the absence of external forces, which can cause displacement.
• Inertia: Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, which is related to its momentum.
• Momentum Conservation: The principle of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system remains constant.
• Collisions: Collisions involve the exchange of momentum between objects.
• Acceleration: Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, which affects the change in momentum.
• Angular Momentum: Angular momentum is the momentum associated with the rotational motion of an object.
• Velocity: Momentum is a quantity that depends on both the mass and velocity of an object.
• Force: Force is required to change the momentum of an object.
