Conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of interacting objects remains constant if no external forces act. Newton's second law defines force as directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum. Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity.
Energy is defined as the ability to do work, with units of joules. Work is done when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force. Power is defined as the rate at which work is done. Efficiency refers to the ratio of useful output energy or power to the total input energy or power.

Conservation of momentum: When two or more bodies act on
one another, the total momentum of bodies remains constant, provided no external forces act. When two bodies collide then, total momentum before collision = total momentum after collision if no external force acts. Newtons second law: Force is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum. Momentum: The product of mass and velocity is called momentum.
Energy, work and power
Energy: Energy is the ability to do work. Unit – Joule(J).
Work: A work is done when a force moves an object in the direction of the force. Power: Power is the rate of work done. Efficiency: Efficiency is the rate of useful energy/power output by total energy/ power input. Nuclear fission: Unstable large nucleus broken own into smaller nucleus. Nuclear fusion: small unstable nucleus joins up to form large nucleus.
