Principles of Momentum
The SI unit for measuring momentum is
What is “kg.m/s”?
What is a characteristic of elastic collision?
Total kinetic energy is conserved.
What must occur for the angular momentum of a rigid spinning system to increase?
A rigid spinning system must increase its angular speed in order to increase its angular momentum.
