1. Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity measured in kg*m/s. When objects collide, momentum is transferred from the moving object to the stationary one. 2. There are two types of collisions - elastic and inelastic. The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum before a collision equals the total momentum after. 3. Impulse is the product of force applied over time. It results in a change in an object's momentum. Impulse is equal to the change in momentum, and can be used to calculate the force applied if the time of application is known.
