The law of conservation of momentum states that for two objects colliding in an isolated system, the total momentum before and after the collision is equal. This is because the momentum lost by one object is equal to the momentum gained by the other. Conservation of momentum is derived from Newton's laws of motion

 

Mathematically it is expressed as:

dP/dt

=d(mv)/dt

mdv/dt

=ma=Fnet

 

initial momentum =final momentum
