About Linear Momentum

Linear momentum is the vector product of mass and velocity, p = mv, and changes when a net external force acts. Work includes impulse as the change in momentum, conservation of momentum in isolated systems, collisions and explosions, and the distinction between elastic, inelastic and perfectly inelastic collisions.
