Linear Momentum

061 - Linear Momentum

In this video Paul Andersen explains how the linear momentum is equal to the product of the mass of an object and the velocity of the center of mass. He uses video analysis software to calculate the velocity of an object and therefore the linear momentum of the object.

I am absolutely astonished by your pure genius. Your knowledge is beyond comprehension. My physics teacher would not catch that apple.

Sir I know its prdct of mass and velocity but if I am teaching to common person (any shop keeper, driver) then in simple words what is momentum

[bhavikachhabria]

can anybody please tell me the exact definition of linear momentum?

[jebuskryst]

Wow. Nice snag of that apple. You have the skills of a Jedi.

Just would like to say thankyou for everything you do for your viewers on youtube. Been watching you since my final two years of highschool and im in my 2nd year of biomed now and im still watching and learning from you so thank to you :))

Hello, I don't know too much about physics but I want to know if linear momentum is the same as linear forces. If not, can you please post a video on linear forces? Thank You.

You, my friend!!! You have a new subscriber. Great video.

I didn't hear you mention anything about the "bounciness" of the basketball and how that impacts the velocity of the apple (I may have just missed it). A bowling ball has more mass than a basketball (generally) but my guess would be that the apple has a smaller velocity when dropped with a bowling ball than a basketball. I definitely could be wrong. Is this another counter-intuitive concept?

Thanks for it, you are intelligent handsome sir

[Developer]

thank you so much my dear teacher
you are the best lesson that I have ever seen

Sir tell about free body diagram and Rocket propulsion

I dont no a single bit of physics but this video is very helpful
