What is ΔP/Δt?
GeneralClass 12AllAnswered 27 Mar 2026
Answer
ΔP/Δt represents the rate of change of momentum with respect to time, which euals the net force acting on an object according to Newton's Second Law. ΔP is the change in momentum (final momentum minus initial momentum), and Δt is the time interval over which this change occurs. This relationship F = ΔP/Δt is fundamental to understanding how forces affect motion.
