Document Summary

If you are trying to understand how much motion does one have. It come from how far you are going and mass you have. Momentum is mass times velocity, just like force. The more momentum it has= harder it is to stop it. Eg baseball, which is very fast but not too much mass would still have a lot of momentum. He defined it as time rate of change of momentum. Time rate of change of linear momentum is the amount of things you need to change. Linear momentum is body force so p of a is always center of mass. Last equation of linear momentum is a vector equation. To slow the ball down to zero momentum, she need to apply an impulse in the opposite direction of 10 kgm/s. Since impulse is f time dt, then the force can be large and the dt small, or the force can be small and dt large.
