... In many cases, one force acting on a particle will be much greater than any other force acting on the particle When using the Impulse Approximation, we will assume this is true The force will be called the impulse force pi and pf represent the momenta (momentums) immediately before and after the col ...

Momentum and Impulse Unit Notes
... We’ve seen that if you want to change the momentum of an object or a system of objects, Newton’s second law says that you have to apply an unbalanced force. This implies that if there are no unbalanced forces acting on a system, the total momentum of the system must remain constant. This is another ...
