This AP Physics 1 study guide covers momentum, including its definition, formula (p = mv), and vector nature. It explores impulse (J = Δp = FΔt) as the change in momentum and its relationship to force and time. The guide also discusses different representations of momentum, open and closed systems, and the Law of Conservation of Linear Momentum with applications to elastic and inelastic collisions. Finally, it provides exam tips, common question types, and practice problems.
