The rate of change of total momentum of ...

The rate of change of total momentum of a many -particle system is proportional to the external force/sum of the internal forces on the system .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Internal forces can not change the total or net momentum of a system . Hence , the rate of change of total momentum of many particle system is proportional to the external force on the system `(Delta p = 0p = "constant")`
