Video introduction to the topics to be covered in this chapter: impulse, momentum, and their relationship; kinetics analysis of collisions and steady-flow devices.
Introduction to the impulse-momentum method of solving kinetic analysis problems. Includes discussion of impulse, momentum, and the conservation of momentum. Includes worked examples.
Analyzing one-dimensional particle collisions through momentum conservation; the types of collisions (elastic, semi-elastic, and inelastic) and the constraints they provide. Includes worked examples.
Analyzing two-dimensional particle collisions through momentum conservation for individual vector components. Types of collisions (elastic, semi-elastic, and inelastic) and the constraints they provide. Includes worked examples.
