It is dimensionally equivalent to the momentum unit kilogram metre per second (kg·m/s). One newton second corresponds to a one-newton force applied for one second. It can be used to identify the resultant velocity of a mass if a force accelerates the mass for a specific time interval. Definition Momentum is given by the formula: - p is the momentum in newton second (N s) or "kilogram meters per second" (kg·m/s)
- m is the mass in kilogram
- v is the velocity in meters per second (m/s)
N s = N s= kg m/s Examples This table gives the magnitudes of some momenta for various masses and speeds. Mass (kg) | Speed (m/s) | Momentum newton seconds | Explanation |
