7-2 Conservation of Momentum
... We couldn’t simply conserve momentum if friction had been present because, as the proof on the last slide shows, there would be another force (friction) in addition to the contact forces. Friction wouldn’t cancel out, and it would be a net force on the system. The only way to conserve momentum with ...

When they reach the ground and stop, whatever they hit has to impart just the right amount of impulse to take away all their momentum. If they had 1000 kg·m/s of momentum, they would need to receive –1000 N·s of impulse ...
