Blogpost #11

The unit we're focusing on now mainly focuses upon momentum. Linear momentum is defined as the product of the mass m and velocity v of an object. To put it simply, momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of a specific object. This picture depicts two apples, the one on the left slightly smaller than the one on the right. If these two apples were to be rolled at the same velocity, the momenta of the apples would be different from one another because they differ in mass.
