sci.momentum Calculator
Calculates linear momentum (p = mv), impulse (J = FΔt), and conservation of momentum in collisions. In elastic collisions, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved — in perfectly inelastic collisions, only momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is lost to deformation.
Inputs
M
Total mass (kg). Distinct from weight — weight = mass × gravity. Mass is constant; weight varies with location.
V
Speed in a specified direction (m/s). Required for momentum, kinetic energy, and wave calculations.
M2
Total mass (kg). Distinct from weight — weight = mass × gravity. Mass is constant; weight varies with location.
V2
Speed in a specified direction (m/s). Required for momentum, kinetic energy, and wave calculations.
Results
total momentum (kg·m/s)
Product of mass and velocity (kg·m/s). Conserved in all collisions — total momentum before equals total after. More mass or more speed makes stopping harder.
p₁
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
p₂
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
total KE (J)
The combined total across all inputs and components.
elastic: v₁ after (m/s)
