h4. System Structure

Internal Constituents:  [Point particles|point particle].
\\
Environment:   Only [external forces|external force] need be considered, since [internal forces|internal force] do not change the system momentum.

h4. Descriptors

Object Variables:  Mass for each object (_m_^j^), unless momentum is given directly.

State Variables:   Velocity (_v_^j^) or momentum (_p_^j^) for each object.

Interaction Variables:   External forces (_F_~ext,k~) or, alternately, impulses may be specified (_J_~ext,k~).

h4. Laws of Interaction

{latex}\begin{large}\[ \vec{J}_{ext,k} = \int \vec{F}_{ext,k}\:dt \]
\[ \frac{d\vec{p}_{\rm system}}{dt} = \:\sum_{k=1}^{N_{F}} \vec{F}_{ext,k} \]\end{large}{latex}

where the system momentum is the vector sum of the constituent momenta:

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).

S.I.M. Structure of the Model
Compatible Systems
The system must be effectively composed of point particles, though rigid bodies may be treated as point particles with positions specified by the center of mass positions of the rigid body when this model is used.
Relevant Interactions
Only external forces need be considered, since internal forces do not change the system's momentum.
