What is impulse and monmentum? |
|
Answer» The product of mass and velocity is called momentum Momentum…is a quantity that describes an object\'s resistance to stopping (a kind of "moving inertia").is represented by the symbol p (boldface).is the product of an object\'s mass and velocity.p = mvis a vector quantity (since velocity is a vector and mass is a scalar).Impulse…is a quantity that describes the effect of a net force acting on an object (a kind of "moving force").is represented by the symbol J (boldface).is the product of the average net force acting on an object and its duration.J = F̅Δtis the force-time integral.J = F dt is a vector quantity (since force is a vector and time is a scalar). |
