Term | Definition |
elastic collision | collision in which colliding objects rebound without lasting deformation or the generation of heat |
impulse | product of the force acting on an object and the time during which it acts |
impulse-momentum relation | impulse is equal to change in momentum of the object |
inelastic collision | collision in which colliding objects become distorted, generate heat, and possibly join together |
law of conservation of momentum | when no external net force acts on an object or system of objects, no change in momentum before an event involving only internal forces equal to the momentum after the event |
momentum | product of the mass of an object and its velocity |
p | variable for momentum |
f | variable for force |
N | variable for Newtons |
t | time elapsed in seconds |
m | variable for mass in kilograms |
v | variable for velocity |
p = mv | formula for finding momentum |
