* Describe the [system] that must be considered and the assumptions that lead to approximate conservation of momentum in a collision.

Introduction to the Model
Description and Assumptions
 Excerpt
hiddentrue
System: Any. — Interactions: Any. — Note: Linear momentum evolves separately from angular momentum, so all system constituents are treated as point particles in this model.

 This model is generally applicable (assuming knowledge of the external forces and system constituents). The model is especially useful when describing the momentum of systems where external forces are absent (system momentum will be constant) or estimating the force in a process that occurs in a very short time interval such as collisions (impulse will be easier to determine than force).
