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).

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.
