... It is most accurate to begin timing the swing of the pendulum at its lowest point because then the ball moves most quickly and takes the least time to pass by: the accuracy of determining the low point is not limited by the motion of the pendulum. The amplitude of the swing should be large in order ...

Momentum and Impulse notes
... What does momentum and impulse have to do with each other? Momentum = mv If velocity changes, momentum changes, and acceleration (either + or –) occurs But we know: 1. for acceleration to occur, a force has to be applied. 2. If a given force is applied over a longer time, more acceleration occurs. ...
