Calculate Change in Momentum







Formula

The formula to calculate the Change in Momentum is:

\[ \Delta U = M \cdot (u_{02} - u_{01}) \]

Where:

Definition

Change in momentum is the quantity of motion that an object has.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \Delta U = 12.6 \cdot (250 - 150) \]

Evaluating:

\[ \Delta U = 1260 \text{ kg·m/s} \]

The Change in Momentum is 1260 kg·m/s.
