Momentum equation

The momentum equation in physics describes how the motion of an object changes when forces act upon it. It states that the rate at which an object’s momentum (mass times velocity) changes over time equals the net force applied to it. Essentially, if you push or pull an object, the amount of change in its motion depends on the strength and direction of the force. This relationship helps understand and predict how objects accelerate, decelerate, or change direction in real-world scenarios, from vehicles accelerating to fluids flowing through pipes.
