FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Back
Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity, represented by the formula p = mv, where p is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the principle of conservation of momentum?
Back
The principle of conservation of momentum states that in a closed system, the total momentum before and after a collision remains constant, provided no external forces act on it.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an elastic collision?
Back
An elastic collision is a type of collision where both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an inelastic collision?
Back
An inelastic collision is a type of collision where momentum is conserved, but kinetic energy is not conserved.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the change in momentum?
Back
Change in momentum is calculated using the formula Δp = p_final - p_initial.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating final velocity in a perfectly elastic collision?
Back
For two objects, the final velocities can be calculated using the equations: v1' = (m1 - m2)/(m1 + m2) * v1 + (2m2)/(m1 + m2) * v2 and v2' = (2m1)/(m1 + m2) * v1 + (m2 - m1)/(m1 + m2) * v2.
