Momentum is represented by the symbol p, and is a vector quantity. p = mv momentum = mass  velocity SI unit for momentum: kg m/s A net force is required to change an object’s momentum Momentum is directly proportional to mass and speed Something big and slow can have the same momentum as something small and fast

The train, bus, and car all have different masses and speeds, but their momenta are the same in magnitude. The difficulty in bringing each vehicle to rest--in terms of a combination of the force and time required--would be the same, since they each have the same momentum.

The force on the car due to the wall is large (big F ), but that force only acts for a small amount of time (little t ). Now imagine the same car moving at the same speed but this time hitting a giant haystack and coming to rest. The force on the car is much smaller now (little F ), but it acts for a much longer time (big t ). In each case the impulse involved is the same since the change in momentum of the car is the same. Any net force, no matter how small, can bring an object to rest if it has enough time. A pole vaulter can fall from a great height without getting hurt because the mat applies a smaller force over a longer period of time than the ground alone would. Stopping Time F t = F t
