... You need to know why conservation of Momentum problems only happen in closed, isolated systems. Know the difference between Internal and external forces and how they affect your collision problems. You need to be able to make and interpret diagrams of collisions and write equations to match them. ...

PE s – Elastic or spring potential energy
... In all of the activities you did before, the work was done on the system by an external force. This caused different types of changes in the system’s ability to do something (for example, to smash chalk); in other words, the system’s energy. Below, we describe several types of changes.
