Introduction to “Momentum Explained”
Introduction to "Momentum Explained" Momentum Explained has been honed down into just three simplified parts: ME01 – Momentum is a quantity….. you have "none" or you have "some" ME02 – Momentum is gained & lost….. you ‘dial it up’ and you ‘dial it down’ ME03 – Momentum is variable….. you change the mass and/or you change the velocity ME01 – Momentum is a quantity….. you have "none" or you have "some" Summary: – A road user’s journey is made up of being stationary … Read entire article »

ME01 – Momentum is a quantity….. you have ‘none’ or you have ‘some’.
ME01 – Momentum is a quantity….. you have ‘none’ or you have ‘some’ Summary….. Here is a help file to get a grip of these points: – A road user’s journey is made up of being stationary and being moving. – A vehicle, when stationary, has a quantity of momentum = “none” – A vehicle, when moving, has a quantity of momentum = “some” – A vehicle with a momentum = “none”….. cannot cause crash hurt and damage – A vehicle … Read entire article »

ME02 – Momentum is gained & lost….. you ‘dial it up’ and you ‘dial it down’.
ME02 – Momentum is gained & lost….. you ‘dial it up’ and you ‘dial it down’ Summary….. Here is a help file to get a grip of these points: Introducing a newly coined phrase: You ‘dial it up’ and You ‘dial it down’ * You (the driver) ‘dial it up’. … A driver is the responsible person to get a vehicle moving: … It is the driver therefore, that….. ‘dials up’ the momentum (accelerates the vehicle… safely) … This makes the driver … Read entire article »

ME03 – Momentum is variable….. you change the mass and/or you change the velocity.
ME03 – Momentum is variable….. you change the mass and/or you change the velocity Summary….. Here is a help file to get a grip of these points: It boils down to a simple equation with just 2 variables to play around with….. (m and v). * Momentum (p)… is mass (m) [the vehicle and all in it]….. multiplied by….. velocity (v) [the speed in a direction]. therefore: * p = mass (m) x velocity (v) therefore: * p = m.v * The 'm' … Read entire article »
