From classical mechanics to quantum field theory, momentum is the Universe's preferred language to describe motion. Learn here about momentum, its conservation, and how it captures our intuitions.
A \(69\text{ kg}\) stuntman jumps out of a window and lands on a trampoline \(5\text{ m}\) below. What is the magnitude of his momentum at the point he hits the trampoline?

An object of mass \(4\text{ kg}\) is thrown straight upward into the air at a velocity of \(15\text{ m/s}\) from the edge of a cliff. Let \(p_1\) be the momentum of the object \(1\) second after the throw, and \(p_{4}\) the momentum of the object \(4\) seconds after the throw. Then what is \(\displaystyle{\frac{p_{4}}{p_1}}?\)

Two objects \(A\) and \(B\) are moving on the ground in the same direction at \(5\text{ m/s}\) and \(2\text{ m/s},\) respectively. Their respective masses are \(3\text{ kg}\) and \(4\text{ kg}.\) Now, they both start to accelerate uniformly at \(-3\text{ m/s}^2\) and \(0.5\text{ m/s}^2,\) respectively, at the same time. Four seconds after that, what is the sum of their linear momenta?

An object initially at rest falls freely in an atmosphere free of air resistance. After \(t\) seconds, the kinetic energy of the object is \(x\text{ J}\) and the momentum of the object is \(y\text{ kg}\cdot{m/s}.\) If \(x=y,\) what is the value of \(t?\)
