Strand 5: Linear Momentum
Major Objectives IS Suggested Activities Suggested Assessments
The student will define and calculate momentum and
understand the relationship between mass, velocity and
momentum.
The student will understand the vector nature of
momentum.
The student will define and calculate impulse and
understand the relationship between force, time and
momentum.
The student will understand how momentum is
conserved in isolated and elastic and inelastic systems.
The student will calculate using conservation of
momentum in both one and two-dimensional collisions.
Demonstration of calculating momentum followed
by guided practice.
