What is the law of conservation of momentum?
Back
The law of conservation of momentum states that in a closed system, the total momentum before an event (like a collision) is equal to the total momentum after the event.

What happens to momentum in a perfectly elastic collision?
Back
In a perfectly elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

What happens to momentum in an inelastic collision?
Back
In an inelastic collision, momentum is conserved, but kinetic energy is not; some kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does mass affect momentum?
Back
Momentum increases with an increase in mass; for a constant velocity, doubling the mass will double the momentum.
