    Simple 1D Collisions PhET Lab Introduction: When objects move‚ they have momentum. Momentum‚ p‚ is simply the product of an object’s mass (kg) and its velocity (m/s). The unit for momentum‚ p‚ is kgm/s. During a collision‚ an object’s momentum can be transferred to impulse‚ which is the product of force (N) and time (s) over which the force acts. This allows us to write the momentum-impulse theorem: Procedure: Play with the Sims  Physics Motion  Collision Lab Work with 1D collisions at this
