System of Particles

A system of particles is a collection of individual objects, or particles, that interact with each other. Instead of examining each particle separately, we analyze the entire system's behavior by considering properties like total mass, center of mass, and overall momentum. This approach simplifies complex problems, especially when the particles are tightly linked or move together, by treating them as a single, combined entity for analysis. Such an approach is useful in physics and engineering to understand the motion and interactions of multi-object systems efficiently.
