Answer

Momentum is directly related to Newton's second law of motion. While commonly written as F = ma, Newton originally expressed it as "the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the applied force," or F = Δp/Δt. Additionally, Newton's third law (action-reaction) is crucial for understanding momentum conservation in collisions and interactions.
