TRANSCRIPT
The product of mass and velocity of a body is called momentum.
Force and Laws of Motion Momentum
Mathematically , Momentum = mass × velocity P = mv
It is a vector quantity. Momentum is always directed in the direction of velocity. The unit of momentum is in S.I system kg m/s or NS.
Force and Laws of Motion Momentum
Here u1 > u2
Before collision :
Velocity of ball before collision
Momentum of ball A: PA = m1u1 Momentum of ball B: PB = m2u2
Total momentum before collision = m1u1 + m2u2
Suppose masses of two moving balls A and B are m1 and m2 and having initial velocities are u1 and u2.
Force and Laws of Motion Momentum
Balls collide to each other for time t.
Velocity of two balls
Force exerted by ball B on A during this interaction is FAB. As per Newton’s third law of motion Force acting on ball B due to ball A would be FBA.
Force and Laws of Motion Momentum
Let after collision their velocities become v1 and v2.
Momentum of ball A‘:, PA' = m1v1 Momentum of ball B‘: PB' = m2v2
Total momentum after collision = m1v1 + m2v2
Velocity of ball after collision
After collision

Force and Laws of Motion Momentum
Final momentum = Initial momentum
Thus during interaction of two balls total momentum before collision is equal to total momentum after collision.

A bullet of 40 g is fired horizontally from a pistol of 4 kg mass with velocity 300 ms-1. How much would be the velocity of pistol in backward direction after firing the bullet ?
