A+B together allows us to make the impact force internal (and not appear in the linear impulse-momentum equation). FBDs for A and B individually allows us to determine the t-direction components of ...

Dividing the change in momentum by the time interval, we get the impact force: Illustration: Rhett Allain That’s a force of 2,329 newtons (equivalent to 523.6 pounds).

Momentum is used in the momentum principle. As an equation, ... That's what forces do—and yes, both force and momentum are vectors. Don't worry about the vector stuff for now though.

Equation (9) is equivalent to assuming that the averaged momentum per photon is given by the Minkowski momentum or canonical momentum 13, K=ε r G=G+M, as the total propagating momentum.
