F21
By Newtons Third Law
F12 =  F21
If we consider the two objects as ONE composite
object, then the total force on the composite object
F tot = F 12  F21 = 0
 DP tot = 0 = Ptot, f  P tot ,i  P tot, f = P tot,i
P tot = P1  P 2
P1, f  P 2, f = P 1,i  P 2,i

Collisions
Basic Assumption
Forces during the collision dominate all
other forces present, so only they need
be considered
This assumption implies that only contact
forces between the objects are
important , i.e. that the system is closed
This in turn implies that the Total Linear
Momentum of the system is conserved
Dptot = 0
Perfectly Inelastic Collisions
The two particles stick together after the
collision
 v1f = v 2f
Thus using Dptot = 0 in one dimension
m1 v1i  m 2v 2i = m1 v f m 2v f = v f (m1  m 2)
m1 v1i  m 2v 2i
 vf =
(m1  m2 )
Elastic Collisions
both Momentum ANDKinetic Energy are conserved
m 1 v 1i  m 2 v 2i = m1 v1f  m 2v 2f

can always choose a frame of reference
in which one of the particles is at rest
and the moving particles trajectory to be
the x - axis
The Center of Mass
In a system of two or more particles,
the system
moves as though all the mass were concentrated at
a point.That point is called the center of mass

The effect of an external
force is to change the
momentum of the entire
system. If the external
force is zero the system
maintains a zero or
constant velocity and the
total momentum of the
system is conserved
Rocket Propulsion
A rocket is a system with mass M moving at a
velocityv . When the gases are expelled with exhaust
velocity v e , then the rocket changes its velocity by
d v . Thus through conservation of momentum
