LINEAR

                                               MOMENTUM





                                                   It is the amount of

                                                    motion possessed

                                                    by a moving body.


                                                   It is defined as the
                                                  product of mass and

                                                            velocity.





                                                     Formula:

                                                       p=mv







                                                  S.I unit is kgm/s.








                                                  Vector quantity.






                                                  Factors affecting
                                                   momentum are
                                                 mass and velocity.




                                                  Momentum of an
                                                   object at rest is
                                                        zero.
