Balanced Unbalanced Force
• F = change in momentum / Time
• F = m (v-u)/t
• Force x time = m (v-u)
• Force x time = Impulse = change in momentum = m (v-u)
• Unit of Impulse is kg m/s or Ns
• Both Momentum and Impulse are the vector quantities.
Net Force
Newton’s Third law of motion
Conservation of momentum
• When two bodies interact with one another and no external force is
acting on them, then the total momentum of the system before
collision = the total momentum of the system after collision.
