Linear momentum, p |
The linear momentum p of a particle is defined as the product of its mass m, and it’s velocity v and it points in the same direction as it’s velocity. |
|
|
|
Newton’s first law of motjon |
An object continues to be in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless acted on by a net external force |
|
|
|
Inertia |
Body’s reluctance to change its state of rest or motion |
First law of Motion is also called first Ke if inertia |
|
|
Newton’s Second Law of motion |
It states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the net external force acting on it and it takes place in the direction of the net external force. |
|
|
|
Force/ instantaneous force |
The instantaneous force is defined as the rate of change of momentum |
|
|
|
Impulse |
Impulse is defined as the change in momentum of the object and is equal to the product of force F acting on an object and the time t for which the force acts. |
|
|
|
Newton’s third law of motion |
Newton’s third law of motion states that if a body A exerts a force on body B, then body B exerts the same type of force of equal magnitude but opposite in direction on body A. |
|
|
|
Principle of conservation of Momentum |
The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that the total final momentum of a system after a collision is equal to total initial momentum of the system when the net external force acting on the system is zero. |
