Impulse-Momentum Theorem • Change in momentum over longer time requires less force

Conservation of Momentum • The total momentum of all objects interacting with one another remains constant regardless of the nature of the forces between the objects.

Conservation of Momentum Situation: Ball A is hit and collides with a stationary ball B. • Before the collision ball B has a momentum equal to zero. • After the collision ball B gains momentum and ball A loses momentum.

Conservation of Momentum

Conservation of Momentum The total momentum of the two balls together remains constant!!!!!! • Therefore: – Pinitial = Pfinal – M 1 V 1 i + M 2 V 2 i = M 1 V 1 f + M 2 V 2 f

Conservation of Momentum is conserved in collisions

Conservation of Momentum is conserved for objects pushing away from each other. An example is jumping into the air. upward = downward momentum
