Physics 30 - May 22

Today we started to look at momentum, what it is and how we measure it.  We also learned about the impulse momentum theorem.  This means that in order to change an object's momentum, one needs to apply a force to an object for an amount of time.  The product of the force and the time is called the impulse.  We went through examples 16, 17, & 18 and I assigned Assignment 4.6 at the end of the class.  

Reminder that on Monday we will be having our first in class assignment for this unit on energy and work.  Know how to do Assignments 4.1-4.5.  Have a great weekend everyone.
