Example Question:
If a baseball bat applies a 22-N force to a baseball for 0.13 s, what is the impulse experienced by the ball?

:star: Collisions
Elastic Collisions
After two objects collide, they bounce off of each other.
Example: Two pool balls collide, and go in separate directions.

Inelastic Collisions
-
After two objects collide, they remain together in one direction
Example: A truck hits a smaller car in a head-on collision. The truck and car stick together after colliding, and continue in the same direction as the truck was going.

Overall, momentum applies to many things in our daily lives, and it is a major aspect of physics. Collisions can explain a wide variety of situations ranging from atom bombs to football, and impulse is an important measure of momentum over time. Possible careers include physics and engineering.
