Momentum is the product of an object’s mass and velocity. The law of momentum conservation states that the total momentum of a closed system remains constant over time, unless acted upon by an external force.
A 2 kg object is moving at 4 m/s to the right. It collides with a 3 kg object that is moving at 2 m/s to the left. If the objects stick together after the collision, what is their final velocity? Momentum is the product of an object’s mass
Let’s use the law of momentum conservation: what is their final velocity? Let&rsquo
2 = 5 v f
2 ( 4 ) + 3 ( − 2 ) = ( 2 + 3 ) v f Momentum is the product of an object’s mass
