This web page provides a multimedia introduction to momentum and collisions. It includes topics such as mass and velocity, momentum conservation, forces, vectors, and examples of elastic and inelastic collisions. Short video clips are integrated with text to promote understanding of important concepts.
This tutorial is part of the PhysClip collection of web-based resources on introductory mechanics, electricity, and magnetism.
