Impulse = F
The amount of force applied to the mousetrap car in a shorter amount of time will have a smaller impulse.

The amount of force applied to the mousetrap car in double the amount of time will double the impulse.

Without impulse there is no momentum.

# data[].attributes.body
Momentum = mv
The less mass the mousetrap car has, the faster it will go.

The more mass the mousetrap car has, the slower it will go.

How Momentum and Impulse Apply to Our Mousetrap Car

When the mousetrap is wound up, it has an increased amount of elastic potential energy.

When the mousetrap is released and starts to gain speed the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy because kinetic energy increases when velocity increases.

Then, Kinetic energy and Potential energy are converted into heat because of the frictional force.

1. Action: the car hitting the wall with a force.
Reaction: the wall pushing back on the car with an equal force, causing the car to stop.
2. Action: the mousetrap car pushing on the ground
Action: the ground pushing a force on the mousetrap car.
3. Action: balloons gripping the floor.
Reaction: the floor gripping the balloons.
4. Action: the snapping of the mousetrap.
Reaction: spinning of the axle (pens).

Newtons third law applies to the car because as the car is rolling, friction is pushing against it with less force so the car still moves. But as the car keeps going, the forces equal out and the car slows down until it finally stops. The force of the mousetrap on the car causes to car to move forward, demonstrating that there are equal and opposite reactions.

Newtons second law applies to the mousetrap car because the more the car weighs the slower it will go. But the less the car weighs the faster it will go because it has less mass. Therefore, it doesn't take a big amount of force to move it.

Newtons first law applies to the mousetrap car because the car does not move until the force of the mousetrap moves it and then the car doesn't stop until it hits an outside force or if gravity finally stops it.
