Linear momentum and impulse
Describe an object's momentum in terms of its mass and velocity. Relate a system's change in momentum to the product of the net force exerted on it and the time interval during which the force acts. Explore how the impulse-momentum theorem relates to Newton's second law, and analyze graphs of force as a function of time.
