Momentum in Collisions - Daytona State College
... Conservation of momentum When two objects collide together, there are internal forces that act to change their velocity after they are in contact with each other. Since the resultant forces are action-reaction pairs governed by Newton 's third law, they act in opposite directions so the two objects ...
