An isolated system Conservation of momentum
• The total momentum of a system of particles is the vector sum • External forces (the normal
of the momenta of the individual particles. force and gravity) act on the
skaters shown in Figure 8.9
• No external forces act on the isolated system consisting of the at the right, but their vector
two astronauts shown below, so the total momentum of this sum is zero. Therefore the
system is conserved. total momentum of the
skaters is conserved.
• Conservation of momentum:
If the vector sum of the
external forces on a system
is zero, the total momentum
of the system is constant.
