Law:

p = m * v

Latex:

\[\vec p = m \vec v\]

Parameters:

velocity_ –

vector of velocity of the object.

Symbol: v

Latex: \(\vec v\)

Dimension: velocity

Returns:

vector of linear momentum.

Symbol: p

Latex: \(\vec p\)

Dimension: momentum

velocity_law(momentum_)

Vector of velocity

Law:

v = p / m

Latex:

\[\vec v = \frac{\vec p}{m}\]

Parameters:
