🎓 Higher Tier: Change in Momentum and Force
Newton's Second Law can be restated as: Force = rate of change of momentum
This connects to impulse (F × Δt = Δ(mv)). A larger force produces a greater rate of change of momentum. This is why safety features (crumple zones, airbags) work: they increase the time of a collision, reducing the force.
