Understanding Conservation of Momentum: The Role of External Forces

A common misconception among students is that the conservation of momentum only applies under specific conditions. It's essential to realize that momentum is conserved only when no external forces act on a system. This article clarifies the conditions necessary for momentum conservation, discusses common mistakes students make, and provides examples illustrating the principle. Understanding these concepts is vital for mastering physics and applying them to real-world scenarios.
