Bengali: ভরবেগ•Pronunciation: মোমেন্টাম•Symbol: \vec{p}
Standard Definition:
The product of the mass and velocity of a moving object.

📐 Mathematical Equation, Units & Dimensions

Defining Mathematical Equation
p⃗=mv⃗\vec{p} = m\vec{v}
Standard SI Unit
kg*m/s($kg\cdot m/s$)
Dimensional Analysis
[MLT−1][M L T^{-1}]
CGS Unit
g*cm/s

📖 Physical Concept & Comprehensive Explanation

Linear momentum measures the quantity of motion contained in an object. When no external unbalanced force acts upon a system, total linear momentum remains conserved before and after collisions.

🎯 High-Yield Revision Points

  • ✓Momentum = mass * velocity (p = mv).
  • ✓Conserved in isolated systems according to the law of conservation of momentum.
  • ✓SI unit is kg*m/s; dimension is [M L T^-1].
