Parth Dave said:Knowing the angular momentum what can you find? How does this relate to force or tension?
Momentum is a measure of an object's motion and is defined as the product of its mass and velocity.
Momentum (p) is calculated by multiplying an object's mass (m) by its velocity (v), expressed as p = m x v.
The law of conservation of momentum states that in a closed system, the total momentum of all objects before a collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, as long as there are no external forces acting on the objects.
An elastic collision is a type of collision in which kinetic energy and momentum are conserved. This means that the objects involved in the collision bounce off of each other without any loss of energy.
Momentum is a direct result of Newton's laws of motion, particularly the law of inertia and the law of action and reaction. The first law states that an object will maintain its state of motion unless acted upon by an external force, and the second law relates the force applied to an object to its resulting acceleration and change in momentum.
