Newton's second law of motion :                     According to this law,                                                    “ the force  acting  on a body is directly proportional to the rate  of change of linear momentum of the body  and the change in momentum takes place in  the direction of the force ”. This law helps us to measure the amount  of force. So, it is also called as ‘law of force’.  Let, ‘m’ be the mass of a moving body, moving  along a straight line with an initial speed ‘u’  After a time interval of ‘t’, the velocity of the  body changes to ‘v’ due to the impact of an  unbalanced external force F. Initial momentum of the body Pi = mu Final momentum of the body Pf = mv  Change in momentum          Δp =Pf–Pi...
