IB Physics Momentum

Newton's third law state that for every action there is a force that is

• equal in the same direction

• unequal in the same direction

• equal in the opposite direction

• unequal in the opposite direction

In the equation p = mv

• p=impulse

• p=force

• p=acceleration

• p=momentum

The Law of conservation of momentum states that if interacting objects in a system are not acted on by outside forces, the total amount of momentum in the system

• can not change

• will change according to the mass

• can change only if the force remains constant

• can not change if there is acceleration
