AP Physics C - Momentum

"Momentum" is a quantity that Newton originally referred to as a "quantity of motion"--a measure of an object's mass and velocity. In fact, Newton's Second Law wasn't stated in terms of a force's effect on accelerating a mass, but rather a force's effect on an object's momentum.
