Answer:
, pfx = pix + Jx.
Explanation:
The momentum principle tells us that impulse transfers momentum to an object.
If an object has 2 kgm/s of momentum, a 1 kgm/s impulse delivered to the object
increases its momentum to 3 kgm/s. That is, pfx = pix + Jx.
Just as we did with energy, we can represent this “momentum accounting” with a
momentum bar chart. For example, the bar chart of FIGURE 11.6 represents the ball
colliding with a wall in Figure 11.4. Momentum bar charts are a tool for visualizing
an interaction
