defined as the product of the particle's
mass and velocity

10 g projectile is accelerated to a speed of v = 500 m/s in
time t = 5 ms. What is the average force on the projectile?
Why are the results

total value of a physical quantity
(for a system of particles)
If a certain physical quantity is defined for particles,
we define the total of this physical quantity for a
system of particles as the sum of the quantity over all
the particles constituting the system.

(maximum loss in

(no loss in total

Mechanical interactions between bodies over a finite time
are called collisions.
Collisions do not affect the total momentum of the system.
In case an external force is applied but the collision takes
voyagerof the
place in a time period negligible for the effects
external force, the external force can be ignored.
If either before or after a collision the
particles have equal velocities, the
collision is perfectly inelastic.
