This summary for Grade 12 IEB Physical Science explores momentum, impulse, and collisions, detailing both elastic and inelastic collisions. It covers Newton’s Second Law in terms of momentum, the impulse-momentum theorem, and conservation of linear momentum with examples. This guide is perfect fo...
