Next apply Newton s momentum equation to the control volume. The momentum in the interior of the control volume is ??? V? v dV. The rate at which momentum enters the control volume through its surface ...
Unlimited expansion thus seems also to be the preferred strategy of system builders. Large scale technological systems acquire momentum as they grow. By this is meant that once the basic decisions ...
Conservation of momentum explains why a gun or cannon recoils backwards when it is fired. When a cannon is fired, the cannon ball gains forward momentum and the cannon gains backward momentum.
