This week I went to a group of three and made a poster about momentum. Me and my group also continued work on the video about Newton's Laws. We recorded more bits and experiments for the video. We recorded the intro for the video and re-recorded a few experiments and explanations.
Momentum is sort of like force but the formula uses velocity instead of acceleration. Momentum is like the amount of strength an abject has at when it is in motion. Momentum is represented as a "p" in it's formula which is p=mxv. If an object is moving at a great speed but have a small mass it would still have a somewhat great momentum, but if an object with a large mass but has a slow velocity the object would still have a relatively great momentum.
The only thing I ahve trouble of understanding is Impulse. I don't really understand what it actually is.
